How long does this therapy take? It's very individual. Duration can range from 4 months to 12 months + depending on the couple, past trauma and life situations. Schedule an appointment today! Couples therapy sessions are 60 minutes long and $225 per session. What is EMDR? EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to focus briefly on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms. Ongoing research supports positive clinical outcomes, showing EMDR therapy as a helpful treatment for disorders such as anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences (Maxfield, 2019). Individual therapy is 53 min long and $190 per session. (BCBS & BCN accepted for individual therapy) Looking for specialized supervision?
