IFS-Informed EMDR Workshops for Therapists. Paving the way for transformative healing experiences.

07/24/2025

“Self-care” isn’t just a bubble bath. It’s a boundary. A breath. A moment of checking in.

Today on International Self-Care Day, we honor the parts of us that are exhausted, overextended, or quietly overwhelmed.

🧠 In IFS-Informed EMDR, we learn that even the parts pushing us to do more are trying to help.
But healing happens when we make space for being, not just doing.

So today, we invite you to pause.

Listen inward.

Ask, “Which part of me needs care right now?”

Let Self lead with compassion.

Because true self-care starts on the inside.

💙 You are allowed to rest.

Looping. Shutdown. Disconnection.
If you’ve experienced EMDR sessions where the process just... stalls—you’re not alone.

Often, it’s not about “resistance.”
It’s about a protector that’s working overtime behind the scenes.

🧠 In IFS-Informed EMDR, we slow down and ask:

Who might be stepping in here?

What positive intention does this part have?

What does it need in order to step back?

Instead of powering through stuckness, we pause for partnership.
And that small shift? It can unlock powerful, system-wide transformation.

Urielle Samis, LCSW says:
“This model, with its nuance and refinement in the way it blends the two modalities, is truly magical, and I basically only use this when I do EMDR now. It is so clearly effective with my clients - mostly q***r folx who have experienced much complex trauma and marginalization.”
