EMDR Virtual Therapy
Understanding EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences and distressing memories. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation — such as guided eye movements — to help the brain reprocess painful experiences so they no longer hold the same emotional weight. At Fox Oak Counseling, we recognize that trauma affects each person differently, and that healing is possible with the right support.
At Fox Oak Counseling, Jamie Thomas, LCSW, takes a compassionate and individualized approach to EMDR therapy. With a background in community mental health and a deep commitment to trauma-informed care, Jamie understands the courage it takes to revisit difficult experiences. She believes that every person carries inherent strengths and deserves a space where they feel safe, heard, and respected.
In your sessions, you can expect a collaborative environment where you set the pace of your healing journey. Jamie will work alongside you to build a foundation of trust, understand your experiences, and guide you through the EMDR process in a way that feels manageable and empowering. Whether you are processing a single traumatic event or a lifetime of difficult experiences, Jamie is here to support you every step of the way.
During your first session at Fox Oak Counseling, you will have the opportunity to share your story and discuss what has brought you to seek support. Jamie will create a safe and welcoming space for you to express your thoughts and feelings at your own pace — there is no pressure to dive into difficult material before you are ready.
Together, you will explore your history, identify your goals, and begin building the coping skills and inner resources that form the foundation of effective EMDR work. Jamie’s goal is to ensure you feel grounded, prepared, and confident before moving into the reprocessing phases of therapy. Healing is a process, and your comfort and safety come first.
- Trauma-Informed Care: Jamie approaches every session with sensitivity and respect for your unique experiences, ensuring you always feel safe and in control of your healing process.
- Evidence-Based Treatment: EMDR is recognized by leading mental health organizations worldwide as a highly effective treatment for trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and more.
- Personalized Support: Jamie tailors the EMDR process to your specific needs and history, so your therapy is never one-size-fits-all.
