Off-duty therapists on their best behavior 💀

11/24/2025

Therapists: there are clients out here searching for EMDR therapists for a year or more.

Not because they don’t want help, but because there aren’t enough of us trained, confident, and ready to meet them where they are.

That’s how powerful EMDR is. It’s changing lives, but only if people can access it.

If you’ve been thinking about getting trained, this is your sign. The need is real, the demand is high, and you are the missing link.

🧠✨ Comment 'TRAINING' to get info on upcoming EMDR trainings and learn how to serve your clients with confidence and cultural attunement.

And if you’re already a BIPOC EMDR therapist: get listed in the BIPOC EMDR Directory (it’s free!) so people can find you. Let’s fill this gap together. 💚

We don’t talk enough about how brave it is to be the first one in your family to go to therapy.

To be the one saying, “the cycle stops with me.”
To face what generations before you had to survive just to make it here.

That’s what real ground breaking looks like. 🧠💪🏾

If you’re a therapist who wants to help your clients do the same: to heal what’s been passed down and create something new,
comment 'TRAINING' to learn about upcoming EMDR trainings that center cultural humility and generational healing.

🧠 Therapists, if your anxiety about saying the “wrong thing” takes over the session… your client will feel it. Especially your BIPOC clients.

When you’re in your own head, they end up holding emotional space for you, and that’s the exact dynamic they came to therapy to heal from.

You don’t have to be perfect in the room, but you do have to be present. That’s how real healing happens.

If you want to learn how to regulate your own nervous system, show up with cultural humility, and actually feel confident leading EMDR sessions, comment 'TRAINING' and I’ll send you the info for upcoming dates. 💫

Therapists: you don’t have to have it all figured out before you show up for consultation.
If you’ve ever sat in a call thinking, “I should probably know this already…”, you’re not alone.

Those “small” questions are actually the ones that build your confidence and make you a stronger EMDR clinician.

In my consultation groups, we slow down, unpack the hard stuff, and make space for your growth, without judgment.

If you’re ready for consultations that meet you where you are (and help you get where you want to be), comment 'GUIDANCE' and I’ll send you the info. 💬

Friend response ≠ Fawn response 🧠

Y'all have been asking, so let's break it down:

👉🏾 The Fawn Response:
"I'll make myself easy to love to stay safe"
→ Erases self for approval
→ People-pleasing & masking

🫂 The Friend Response:
"If we stick together, maybe I can stay safe"
→ Seeks community for survival
→ Strength in numbers

Both are survival strategies that helped you survive something.
Neither should be how you have to live forever.

Understanding the difference helps us address what's actually happening, and what healing needs to look like. 💙

You don’t have to hold it all together just because you’re the therapist.

Somewhere along the way, a lot of us forget that we need support too. Real spaces to unpack, connect, and breathe. 🧠

That’s why my EMDR consultations aim for learning, not perfection.
Whether you're looking to complete your 10 required hours or need a different guidance, this is for you.
This is a place where you can ask the questions you’re scared to say out loud (and feel safe while doing it).

💬 Comment 'GUIDANCE' and I’ll send you the details.

What you feel on your gut might be coming from your brain...

Your gut and your brain are in constant conversation. If your nervous system’s been living in survival mode, your body isn’t focused on digestion, but on protection.

That’s why trauma doesn’t just live in your mind. It shows up in your body: in your gut, your breath, your tension, your sleep.

EMDR helps your brain and body finally feel safe again, so your system can stop fighting for survival and start healing.

If you’re a therapist and want to help your clients move out of survival mode, my next online and in-person EMDR trainings are for you.

Cultural humility in therapy isn’t about having all the answers.
It’s about knowing you’re not gonna know all cultures and backgrounds, but you’ll be open and curious to learn.

What you do need to know as a therapist is how to slow down, be open-minded and make space for what your client’s lived experience actually feels like.

You can apply that through the small things: the language you use, the metaphors you choose, the pace you move at. By understanding that generational trauma, identity, and safety aren’t side notes in therapy.
They are THE therapy.

If you’re ready to learn EMDR in a space where cultural humility isn’t a bullet point, but the foundation, comment ‘TRAINING’ 💬 and I’ll send you the info for my upcoming sessions.

Sometimes as a therapist, you feel your client’s pain so deeply it’s hard to stay in “therapist mode.”
But that’s not weakness! That’s your empathy doing its job.

When you care that much, you owe it to your clients to have tools that actually help them heal, not just cope.
That’s why I teach EMDR: because it gets to the root of trauma and helps clients move forward faster.

If you’re ready to give your clients more than talk therapy ever could…
