EMDR Therapy | Connecticut

You’ve talked it through.
Learned the skills.
Now you’re ready to go deeper.

Therapy for self-aware, growth-oriented adults who want to move beyond coping and work at the roots of what keeps them stuck.

From the outside, you look like you’re managing it all

But most people don’t see:

The jaw you’re constantly clenching
The tightness in your chest despite your smile
A mind with 26 tabs open at all times
The way you run on imposter syndrome
The background chatter of what-ifs and should-haves
A stomach that braces for criticism before anyone has even spoken
How small moments can send your thoughts spiraling
The panic that floods when you least expect it

You’ve learned how to manage.
You’ve learned how to explain why you feel the way you do.

And for a long time, that was enough.

Then something happened.

Maybe…

the pressure at work finally tipped the scale.
the thing you’d been managing became impossible to handle.
you were caught off guard and sent spiraling.
that old thing resurfaced with a vengeance.
your planning and effort did not guarantee intended results.
your nervous system just hit its limit.

The things that used to help stopped working.

The masking takes more energy than you have.
The anxiety and internal critic show up faster.
Louder.
Harder to hide.
People can see the struggle even when you’re trying really hard to keep pushing through.

Something needs to change.

You long for:

A brain that can actually turn off

Relief that doesn’t require constant self-monitoring

Shoulders that can soften

A body that isn’t bracing for impact

Rest that actually feels restorative

Space to respond instead of react

The ability to feel more like yourself

You can’t out-think your body.

It’s easy to get stuck in loops, trying to out-logic an anxious, overwhelmed nervous system

But if insight alone created full relief, you likely would already feel it.

You’ve built meaningful insight. You understand your patterns. You’ve developed skills. Those are real strengths.

Sometimes the next step isn’t more insight. It’s creating the conditions for your system to actually integrate what you already understand.

That’s where this work begins.

Hi, I’m Laura.

You’re in the right place if you’ve already done meaningful healing work and you’re ready for it to feel different in your body.

I use EMDR and parts work to help your mind and body have a different kind of conversation, one that allows deep, embodied change.

All the healing work you’ve already done matters here. We just use it differently.

This approach helps us work directly with what’s stored beneath insight so your body can update to what your mind already knows.

For some people, this work unfolds best in steady weekly therapy.

For others, EMDR intensives (meeting for longer chunks of time) or a hybrid approach of both allows us to go deeper, faster, and with more resolution.

There’s no one “right” way. We decide together what fits your nervous system, your life, and your capacity.
