Yeah…you could keep putting off EMDR business coaching and spend the next 6 months stuck in the same loop of doing low-quality EMDR with 35 clients/week (and that’s not ‘cause you’re a bad therapist. It’s because you’re human).

👀 OR we work together and help you break-up with insurance, see less clients, do meaningful and deep work, and build your referral and marketing streams.

If you’re ready for the second option, join my OverFlow group!!

I’m a therapist who gets it. And I’m here to help you identify the things that are burning you out.

🙋🏻‍♀️I’m hosting 2 workshops for EMDR therapists who are ready to step fully into their role as trauma specialists, and build practices that reflect their level.

Inside Overflow you’ll learn:
➡️ Why feeling stuck or inconsistent isn’t a motivation problem — it’s a positioning problem
➡️ How to explain your trauma work clearly so clients (and referral sources) understand your depth
➡️ How to stop blending in as “a therapist who does EMDR”
➡️ How to build steady demand by refining your specialization
➡️ How to set your fee to reflect EMDR’s deep healing work

This is for the therapist who wants to level up their practice and get paid what they’re worth.

📣The deets:
➡️March 3 from 3pm-4pm CT
➡️April 6 from 6:30pm-7:30pm CT
‼️$40 until 3/3
‼️$50 price increase starting on 3/4

💬 DM me “OVERFLOW” and I’ll send you the details. We’ll strengthen your clinical confidence, clarify your voice, and help your practice reflect the depth and breath of EMDR.

If you love being an EMDR therapist but you’re quietly struggling with the business side of it, this account is for you.

I’m Lilly, an EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Consultant, therapist, and business coach. I built a successful EMDR solo practice that grew into a group practice, and I did it without marketing louder or selling my soul. I did it by getting clearer about who I was as a trauma therapist. I got clearer about how I talked about EMDR, what I charged and why. And now I help other EMDR therapists do the same.

I created OverFlow because I remember what it felt like to care deeply about trauma work and still have an unpredictable caseload. I remember showing up online, networking, saying yes to everything, and wondering why it still wasn’t steady. I knew EMDR worked. I had seen it change lives. But I had not yet learned how to position myself as a specialist instead of blending in as “a therapist who does EMDR.”

🙋🏻‍♀️And I’m on a mission to teach EMDR therapists what I learned. My OverFlow workshops are for EMDR therapists who are experienced, who know this work is powerful, and who are ready to stop feeling inconsistent and start feeling in-demand. It is not about hustling harder. It is about refining your specialization and stepping fully into your identity as a trauma specialist.

If your EMDR client is dissociating, stop doing THIS ↓

Sometimes pushing EMDR makes things worse for our clients.

If we push the protocol when our clients are dissociating (and we don’t realize it), they can have adverse reactions outside of sessions.

Averse reactions can look like:

- Brain fog & numbing out
- Headaches and dizziness
- Increased anxiety and activation outside of sessions

Not good. BUT we can still sell the brilliant work of EMDR, without selling the eye movements.

Here’s what I mean:

So much of what I am I’m doing as an EMDR therapists is preparation. I am working with my EMDR clients on understanding their nervous systems, how they got to where they are, and how their symptoms make sense. I am helping my clients understand why they’ve repressed or dissociated, a what it feels like in their body.

I’m not always doing eye movements or BLS.

So as EMDR therapists, we should explain that to our clients. And we need to use this as a selling point for EMDR.

Tell them how we see symptoms as adaptive, all about the AIP model, and how we work to understand their nervous systems.

Tell them that EMDR is more than just eye movements or tapping.

Once I was able to see that the real power of EMDR goes beyond eye movements, I was able to sell EMDR in a way that works for me AND gets my clients better results.

Once I unlearned that EMDR was only about eye movements and was much more about helping our clients understand their internal systems, understand their symptoms and bodies in a way that makes sense and heals, I was able to sell EMDR in a way that works for me AND gets my clients better results.

I’ve moved from burnt out and underpaid to a full-time solo practice, now group practice with a waitlist, built on selling EMDR. I’m here to help you move from burnout → peacefully booked out.

I’ve never had to face myself the way I have while putting myself out there as a business owner and EMDR therapist.

Don’t get me wrong. I love being an EMDR therapist and EMDR coach… but I’m still a human.

Which means I still have days where I feel not good enough.

I still feel bad about myself when a client terminates care.

I still have moments where I’m like, “GD why did I say that?”

But I’ve learned this:

🤍 Every time I show up and try something new is worth it.
🤍 Every setback is just a speed bump, not a stop sign.

And I’ve never been more committed to helping EMDR therapists build their businesses and the lives that they deserve… even with all the wobbles…because I believe that healthy (wealthy) therapists means better care for their clients. I believe that therapists cannot do the work if they’re burned out and underpaid. I believe that our nervous system matters and impacts the clients that we serve.

So if you’re in your own growth era right now, let this be your reminder: Being an EMDR therapist and business owner takes thick skin. You’re going to flop and fail, and you need to get back up again. Let this be your reminder that it’s always worth it. 🤍

EMDR therapist? You don’t need to guess your way through the growth and mess, and you certainly don’t have to do it alone.
