Trauma & EMDR

“Trauma isn’t what happened to you; it’s what’s still happening inside you.”

– Logan Bennett, LCSW, LCDC

Trauma is like a song you don’t know how you know all the words to—and it’s playing on loop.

You didn’t ask for it.

You don’t even like the damn song.

But there it is, stuck in your head at the worst times—when you’re trying to fall asleep, enjoy a quiet moment, or just make it through the day.

And it’s in your body too. That tension in your jaw, the knot in your stomach … it’s like you’re living on high alert, always waiting for the next shoe to drop.

What if you could finally turn the volume down?

You can’t change the past, but you can change the way it shows up in your present.

Imagine being able to enjoy a deep breath or walk into Target without planning an escape route.

Trauma therapy can help you quiet those constant alarms, so you can feel calm, safe, and connected to the here and now.

Trauma is heavy, and healing takes work …

… but you don’t have to do it alone.

I’ve worked with people carrying all kinds of stories—those who’ve experienced things they can’t put into words and those who’ve spent years pretending it didn’t happen.

My approach is equal parts science and human connection. Think EMDR for processing the hard stuff, AEDP for digging into emotions in a safe and supportive way, and a healthy dose of “let’s figure this out together.”

Is this for you? 

→ You’re done letting the past dictate your present.

→ You’re ready to face the hard stuff, but you need someone who gets it.

→ You want therapy to feel like a conversation, not a lecture.

→ You’re tired of carrying this weight alone and are ready to finally set it down.

What are AEDP and EMDR?

  • AEDP helps you face the emotions you’ve been avoiding, but in a way that doesn’t feel overwhelming. It’s about slowing down and noticing what’s really happening under the surface, the stuff you’ve buried or brushed off for years. Together we’ll unpack that fear, shame, or heaviness and make room for something lighter.

  • EMDR may sound complicated, but it’s surprisingly straightforward: your brain knows how to heal—it just needs a little help. We start with a memory or emotion that feels stuck and use guided eye movements or taps to help your brain process it. No, you don’t have to relive the whole thing. The goal is to take the edge off, to turn down the volume so that memory doesn’t hit as hard or run your life.

Let’s get to work.
