Holiday reminder from Tim ✨

As the season brings more conversations, opinions, and family gatherings, remember this: you don’t have to have an opinion on everything. It’s okay to listen, pause, or simply let things be.

Protecting your peace is part of self-care, especially during the holidays.

Happy New Year! ✨As we welcome 2026, we’re wishing you a year filled with healing, hope, and meaningful moments of self-...

The holidays aren’t just about traditions, they’re about connection and joy 🎄

Drew shares one of his favorite family traditions: the Christmas pickle hidden in the tree until New Year’s Eve. Whoever finds it wins a special gift, a simple, playful way to bring everyone together and create lasting memories.

Sometimes, it’s these small moments of fun and togetherness that make the season truly meaningful.

Holiday gatherings can bring up guilt and shame, especially when you’re trying to honor multiple families or set fair boundaries 🎄

Drew reminds us of something important: if someone makes you feel guilty or ashamed for how you choose to spend your holiday time, that burden isn’t yours to carry. It belongs to them.

You’re allowed to prioritize what’s healthiest for you and your family. This season, give yourself permission to set boundaries without apology.

A common myth about EMDR is that eye movements are the only way it works.

In this video, Emilie and Sarah Held explain the different ways EMDR can be done and how the approach is always tailored to the person, not a single technique.

The holidays can feel overwhelming, and that’s okay 🤍

Sarah reminds us that healing doesn’t have to happen all at once. Taking things one day at a time creates space for rest, presence, and self-compassion during this busy season.
If the holidays feel heavy and you need extra support, you don’t have to carry it alone. Reach out, we’re here for you.

One of the biggest myths we hear is that EMDR will completely disrupt your daily life because the emotions are too overwhelming.

We’ve been wanting to do this for a long time! Now introducing, The Held Sisters!

This is a new video series where sisters Emilie and Sarah Held talk honestly about therapy and the questions people really ask. We’re kicking it off with EMDR Unfiltered as our first series, because EMDR gets misunderstood all the time.

We are so excited to share our input with you guys! Let us know if you have any requested topics, and what your thoughts are.

Therapy isn’t just for moments of crisis. It’s also for:
✨ Managing everyday stress
✨ Navigating life transitions
✨ Improving communication and relationships
✨ Building emotional resilience
✨ Preventing burnout
✨ Understanding yourself more deeply

Whether you're struggling, growing, changing, or simply wanting to feel more grounded, therapy can help.
