Trauma Therapy · EMDR
Move through what's been stuck.
Trauma lives in the body as much as the mind. EMDR helps the brain finish processing what it couldn't at the time — without forcing the story, without rushing the pace.

Modality
EMDR, paced for your nervous system.
Maria is EMDR-certified and works in carefully sequenced phases — resourcing and stabilization first, then processing only when you're ready. Sessions stay collaborative and entirely on your terms.
Common questions
A few specifics.
What is EMDR, exactly?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing — an evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process memories that are still stuck. You stay in control the whole way.
Will I have to relive what happened?
No. EMDR is not about telling the story over and over. We work in carefully paced segments, and only when you're ready.
How long does EMDR take?
It varies by person and history. Some single-incident work moves quickly; longer-standing trauma takes more time. Pace is yours to set.
Do you work with complex / childhood trauma?
Yes. Maria works gently with complex trauma, building safety and resources before any processing begins.
