If you’re searching for an EMDR therapist in Florida, you likely have questions about how this therapy works, what to expect, and how it can help you heal. Whether you’re a mother struggling with the weight of perfection and self-doubt or managing constant anxiety related to raising a child with food allergies, EMDR Intensive Therapy can provide lasting relief. This FAQ guide answers common questions to help you decide if EMDR therapy is right for you.
What Is EMDR Therapy and How Does It Work?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process painful life experiences, distorted beliefs, strong emotions, and so many other targets. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (a fancy phrase for what it is: moving your eyes back and forth, alternating tapping between your arms, or sounds that go back and forth) to help reprocess those targets, identifying new perspectives or insights that help ease the distress your experiencing. As everything in your mind and your body starts to settle down, it allows you to move forward with clarity and confidence.
What Are the Benefits of EMDR Intensive Therapy?
If you’re so done with what you are carrying and don’t want to spend months in weekly therapy, EMDR Intensives offer a faster path to healing. Benefits include:
Rapid relief – Process trauma in concentrated sessions instead of weekly therapy over months or years.
Convenience – Telehealth sessions allow you to receive therapy from the comfort of your home. No need to get in the car for the 5th time that day, am I right?
Deep, focused healing – Longer sessions provide time for meaningful progress without constant interruptions. Let me repeat that: Without. Constant. Interruptions. Bliss!
Tailored to your needs – Intensive therapy is designed for busy mothers who need results without the time commitment of traditional therapy.
Can I Do EMDR Therapy Online in Florida?
Yes! EMDR therapy via telehealth is highly effective. As a licensed, I offer virtual intensives to provide the same structured treatment as in-person sessions—without the stress of commuting. Telehealth EMDR offers:
Privacy & comfort – Heal in a safe, familiar space. You get to surround yourself with all the things that bring you joy and peace.
Accessibility – Get therapy anywhere in Florida (or Delaware, Iowa, or Wisconsin), no matter where you live.
Flexibility – Easily fit sessions into your schedule as a busy mom.
How Do I Choose the Right EMDR Therapist in Florida?
Not all EMDR therapists are the same. When looking for an EMDR therapist in Florida, consider:
Specialization – Do they focus on the specific areas you want or need to target?
Experience with Intensives – Do they offer concentrated therapy sessions for faster relief?
Telehealth Availability – Can they provide virtual sessions that fit into your life?
Personality - Do they have the personality that you gel with best?
