Our Approach
The EMDR Difference
Think of EMDR as helping your brain do what it naturally wants to do: heal. When overwhelming events or experiences aren’t fully processed, they can become “stuck,” leaving you sensitive to triggers or caught in emotional patterns that feel hard to explain.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn’t require you to relive every detail of the past. Instead, it gently guides your brain to reprocess painful memories, reducing their emotional charge and making space for new, healthier connections.
An analogy many clients find helpful: EMDR is like clearing a traffic jam in your mind — stuck memories start to move, and your mind can finally return to a smoother, calmer flow.

Evidence-Based Techniques
Our EMDR approach combines the latest research with real-world care. Some of the ways we support you include:
-
Memory Reprocessing: Safely activating and working through distressing memories so they no longer hold the same emotional weight.
-
Bilateral Stimulation: Using gentle eye movements, tapping, or sounds to help your brain process and integrate memories more adaptively.
-
Grounding and Stabilisation: Building practical skills to help you feel safe, centred, and ready before beginning deeper memory work.
-
Identifying Core Beliefs: Uncovering and reshaping painful beliefs (such as “I’m not safe” or “I’m not good enough”) that may have formed during past experiences.

For Example
If a past experience makes you feel unsafe in relationships today, EMDR helps your brain reprocess the memory so you can approach new relationships with more trust and calm. Or, if a painful event left you feeling powerless, EMDR can help you reconnect with a sense of strength and control.

What to Expect in Therapy
WHAT TO EXPECT IN
THERAPY
First Steps Together
Your first session at our Graceville practice is focused on understanding your unique story and building a foundation of trust.
We’ll discuss your goals for therapy, introduce stabilisation strategies, and create a clear, tailored plan to support you.
Processing Memories Safely
Once you’re ready, we’ll guide you through EMDR reprocessing sessions using bilateral stimulation techniques.
You’ll stay grounded in the present while your brain does the work of processing and healing difficult memories.
Moving Towards Integration
As memories lose their emotional charge, you’ll start noticing changes — feeling calmer, more present, and more connected to yourself and others.
We’ll work together to strengthen positive beliefs, emotional resilience, and new patterns that support your growth beyond therapy.
