Get Psyched

So, You're Ready To Try EMDR?

What if healing from trauma isn’t about “fixing” yourself, but remembering that your brain already knows how to heal? 👀✨

In this episode of Get Psyched, we dive into Amy’s EMDR training experience and unpack how trauma-informed therapies like EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) support the nervous system, build safety, and gently guide the brain back toward balance.

We explore how trauma treatments are introduced in a way that feels supportive (not overwhelming), why resourcing is a cornerstone of EMDR, and how creating safety (internally and within the therapeutic relationship) can change everything. Because healing doesn’t happen in isolation, and the connection between therapist and client is often where the real magic lives.

Together, the gals explore:

🎙️ What EMDR therapy is and how it works

🎙️ Amy’s experience with EMDR training

🎙️ How trauma treatments are introduced safely and ethically

🎙️ The importance of resourcing and nervous system support

🎙️ Creating safety in trauma-informed therapy

🎙️ Why the therapeutic relationship matters so much

🎙️ How we’re hardwired toward healing, and how EMDR supports that process

Whether you’re a therapist, therapy-curious, or on your own healing journey, this episode is a reminder that your system isn’t broken... it’s doing its best. And with the right support, healing is possible!
