If you’ve spent years in traditional talk therapy and still feel “stuck” in the same emotional patterns, you aren’t alone. For many Denver residents—from high-pressure professionals in the Tech Center to parents navigating family stress in Lone Tree—the problem isn’t a lack of insight. The problem is that trauma is stored in the body and the nervous system, not just the logical mind.
At My Denver Therapy, we specialize in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a gold-standard treatment that helps your brain “reprocess” traumatic memories so they no longer trigger a fight-or-flight response.
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR is a structured, 8-phase therapy that uses bilateral stimulation (like guided eye movements or tapping) to help the brain’s natural healing process. Think of it like “digesting” a mental block that has been stuck for years.
Why EMDR is Different from Talk Therapy
Traditional therapy focuses on the story. EMDR focuses on the charge. While you may know that a past car accident on I-25 or a difficult breakup wasn’t your fault, your body might still react as if it’s happening right now. EMDR bridges that gap between what you know and how you feel.
Is EMDR Right for You?
Our Denver EMDR therapists often work with clients struggling with:
PTSD and Childhood Trauma: Healing from the past to live in the present.
Anxiety and Panic Attacks: Reducing the physical intensity of stress.
Performance Anxiety: Helping Denver professionals and athletes overcome “the yips” or “imposter syndrome.”
Grief and Loss: Processing the overwhelming weight of losing a loved one.
