EMDR Therapy with a Neurodivergent Lens
You may not call it trauma. You might just know that your body never quite feels calm — that certain memories, patterns, or interactions leave you overwhelmed, shut down, or stuck in loops. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured therapy approach that helps your nervous system process unresolved experiences — without reliving them in detail.
At Get Psyched Therapy & Coaching, we offer virtual EMDR therapy that’s personalized, trauma-informed, and sensory-aware. We integrate EMDR into care for adults navigating neurodivergence, burnout, identity exploration, and chronic emotional dysregulation.
What EMDR Can Help With
EMDR is widely used to support healing from both acute and chronic stress. It can be especially helpful if you:
Feel frozen, overstimulated, or reactive in certain situations
Have looping thoughts or body-based anxiety you can’t explain
Experience burnout that doesn’t resolve with rest
Know something impacted you, but can’t put words to it
Have been through high-demand caregiving, identity-based harm, or ongoing relational stress
EMDR doesn’t require you to talk through every detail. Instead, it works by helping the brain reprocess experiences in a way that feels safer, less charged, and more integrated.
How EMDR Works (Brief Overview)
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation — such as eye movements, tapping, or audio tones — to help the brain access and reprocess distressing memories or sensations. It’s based on the idea that trauma or emotional overwhelm can get “stuck” in the nervous system, leading to symptoms like anxiety, hypervigilance, dissociation, or emotional flooding.
Through EMDR, you remain grounded in the present while gently addressing the roots of those responses. Many clients report feeling lighter, more regulated, and less reactive over time.
EMDR for Neurodivergent Adults
We specialize in adapting EMDR for clients with ADHD, autism, and sensory sensitivity. This means:
Pacing sessions to match your nervous system
Using visual, auditory, or tactile modalities that feel safe and accessible
Honoring your capacity and need for breaks, regulation tools, or co-regulation
Focusing on both known events and subtle patterns of chronic overwhelm
Whether your trauma is named, unspoken, or simply felt in your body — EMDR can help you move through it without retraumatization.
Virtual EMDR Therapy — Accessible and Flexible
All sessions are held virtually for adults in California and Maine. This allows you to access EMDR from a familiar space, with sensory supports that feel grounding to you. We offer virtual EMDR therapy in Redlands, Yucaipa, Beaumont, and across both states.
What to Expect in EMDR Therapy
Your first sessions will focus on building trust, safety, and resourcing tools — including somatic grounding and visual imagery. We won’t jump into reprocessing until you feel ready. EMDR at our practice is always client-paced and collaborative.
We adapt each session to your sensory profile, goals, and trauma history. If EMDR isn’t the right fit for every phase of your care, we integrate it alongside IFS, ACT, and narrative work.
