This page shows our therapists who specialize in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and are in Teletherapy.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps people heal from the emotional wounds caused by trauma, distressing memories, or deeply rooted negative beliefs. It’s often used to treat symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but it can also benefit individuals coping with anxiety, panic attacks, grief, and childhood abuse. People struggling with EMDR-related concerns might find themselves reliving painful experiences, avoiding triggers, feeling emotionally numb, or overwhelmed by fear and shame. These symptoms can affect relationships, work, and overall quality of life, but healing is absolutely possible.

Therapists at Westside Behavioral Care use EMDR to help clients safely process painful memories and reduce their emotional charge. This approach involves structured sets of guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation while recalling traumatic experiences, which helps the brain reprocess them in a healthier way. EMDR is often integrated with other effective treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and mindfulness practices to support long-term healing. If you’re considering therapy for trauma or past emotional wounds, you may want to ask if EMDR is a good fit for your specific goals. Many clients report significant progress, even after other approaches haven’t worked.

You can access EMDR therapy with ease through Westside Behavioral Care. We offer appointments both in person at convenient locations throughout the Greater Denver Area and via secure online therapy across all of Colorado. All of our providers are in-network with Kaiser Permanente, and many also accept a range of other major insurance plans.
