EMDR therapy.

Help your brain finish what it started.

Anna Talamo, LMFT — EMDR therapy in Albany, California

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a research-backed therapy that helps the brain process memories that keep resurfacing. Using bilateral stimulation — usually gentle eye movements — we let the nervous system finish the digestion that trauma once interrupted.

Who it helps

Is this a fit?

  • PTSD, single-incident trauma, and complex trauma
  • A specific memory that keeps replaying or intruding
  • Anxiety, panic, and performance anxiety with a body signature
  • Feeling triggered out of proportion to the present moment
  • Grief and loss that hasn't fully moved through
