EMDR for Recent Trauma

Therapy for when something just happened.

If you’ve recently been through something overwhelming and don’t feel settled yet, you may be looking for support now — not care spread out week by week for months.

EMDR Therapy for Recent Traumatic Events

EMDR includes protocols specifically designed for recent traumatic events, with an emphasis on stabilization and gentle processing of what just happened.

In a time-limited EMDR intensive format, early, focused support may help reduce distress, support regulation, and restore a sense of grounding — and may reduce the likelihood that traumatic stress becomes more persistent over time.

How Support is Offered After a Recent Traumatic Event Here

For recent trauma, EMDR is offered here in as a single-issue intensive, designed to support stabilization and processing in a shorter window rather than ongoing weekly sessions.

This approach is designed to support stabilization and early processing after a specific event, without opening your full history or starting long-term therapy.

Not Long-Term Therapy

This approach is intentionally different from ongoing therapy. It is not focused on:

  • Exploring long-standing patterns

  • Revisiting childhood history

  • Open-ended weekly work

It is designed to support your system through the immediate aftermath of a specific event, in a clear and contained way.
