You understand why you react the way you do.
EMDR is designed for the moments when insight alone hasn’t changed the pattern. Karen P. Ware, LPC, offers EMDR for adults and first responders in Suffolk, VA, as well as through telehealth across Virginia.
What is EMDR?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps the brain process distressing experiences so they no longer trigger the same emotional and physical reactions. It is structured, research-supported, and often different from traditional talk therapy because the goal is not simply to revisit the past but to help your brain store it
differently.

What Sessions Look Like
