What Is EMDR?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy designed to help the brain process painful or overwhelming experiences so they no longer feel as intense or disruptive. Instead of talking through every detail of the past, EMDR works by helping your mind and body release the emotional “stuckness” that trauma, stress, or major life transitions can create. It is a powerful, gentle approach that supports deep healing, relief, and long-term change.
EMDR Helps With:
- Trauma (both big, life-altering events and smaller, chronic stressors)
- Anxiety and emotional overwhelm
- Hormonal shifts in perimenopause and menopause
- Grief and heartbreak
- Childhood trauma
- Divorce and relationship wounds
- High-functioning burnout
- Identity transitions
EMDR for Women in Midlife
Your emotions are not overreactions — they are signals.
During peri- and menopause, many women experience a surge in emotional sensitivity. Hormonal shifts can make past experiences feel closer to the surface, intensifying stress, irritability, sadness, or old wounds you thought were already healed. This doesn’t mean you’re “too emotional” — it means your nervous system is more responsive, and it needs support, not judgment.
EMDR offers a grounded and effective way to stabilize emotions, process resurfacing trauma, and reconnect with a sense of control. It helps your brain reduce the intensity of emotional triggers so you can move through this phase feeling calmer, clearer, and more like yourself.
Common Emotional Experiences
- “I don’t feel like myself.”
- “Everything makes me emotional.”
- “My trauma is coming back.”
- “I feel sensitive all the time.”
How EMDR Works
EMDR uses a method called bilateral stimulation — gentle eye movements, tapping, or auditory tones that activate both sides of the brain. This process helps your mind reprocess painful memories, calm emotional reactions, and create new, healthier responses. Instead of reliving the past, EMDR helps your brain file it away so it no longer feels overwhelming in the present.
EMDR Helps You:
- Reduce emotional reactions
- Stop overthinking
- Calm your nervous system
- Heal trauma
- Release body tension
- Break old patterns
- Rebuild self-confidence
Signature EMDR Approach
Jeanette’s Signature EMDR Framework is designed to support deep emotional healing while helping you feel grounded, empowered, and resilient. This 3-phase method creates clarity, stability, and long-lasting transformation.
Phase Framework
Stabilize
Grounding, emotional regulation, and cultivating a strong sense of internal safety. This phase prepares your mind and body to feel steady, supported, and ready for deeper work.
Reprocess
Advanced EMDR protocols are used to process trauma, emotional triggers, limiting beliefs, and internal blocks. This is where the “stuck” feelings begin to shift and release.
Rebuild
This phase strengthens identity, boundaries, clarity, confidence, and nervous system resilience — helping you step into a grounded, empowered version of yourself.
