Real success stories from our members
Read why people love using Talkspace.
-
I've seen several therapists, but none felt right until I met Caitlyn. We clicked immediately. She's been so supportive in helping me build confidence and discover my strengths. Caitlyn listens without judgment, and I trust her with my most vulnerable thoughts. She's helped me uncover parts of myself I didn't even realize needed attention.
-
Erin is a wonderful therapist! She is not only a great listener and conversationalist but she also consistently brings in tools and therapeutic theories into the sessions. This allows the sessions to feel productive and meaningful. She lets you take the lead but is always an active participant during the sessions. I would definitely recommend her!
-
I cannot express how grateful I am to have found such a compassionate counselor. Sherry truly listens without judgment and creates a safe space for me to explore my feelings. Their empathy has made a significant difference in my journey toward healing.
-
Urwa really helps me focus on my negative self talk and ways to reframe them so that I can practice myself at home. She makes things easy to learn in session so I can keep using them when needed and not feel like I started all over again at every session. It shows me progress.
-
Evelyn was my first experience with counseling after a VERY long time- I was skeptical because of my last experience but she changed that. She accommodated me, she listened to me, she helped me work through my social anxiety and break free from the intrusive thoughts. I have an entirely new view on life and the things I can do, and I don't think I could've gotten to where I am today without her.
-
Cindy has been a great ear for listening. But most of all she's an amazing sounding board, to milling over thoughts, ideas and helping me explore my past and how I am affected by it in the present. When I talk to her, she picks key pieces about what I am saying and gives it back to me in a way that helps me understand myself. She helps me to understand my own brain. I am so happy to have found her!

It's a pleasure working with Michaiah Dominguez-Brown. After hearing her speak at a conference, I knew she'd be my therapist, and it's one of the best decisions I've made. As someone who used to hold everything in, Michaiah's warm demeanor and caring approach have made it easier to open up and manage my emotions. Her infectious smile and positive energy make every session worthwhile.
-
Grateful to have found Dr. Chrisanna! From our initial meeting I could tell that she has a deep caring for her patients' wellbeing and is passionate about her work. She is a great listener and her friendly demeanor makes it easy to open up. I look forward to continuing on this healing journey with her. I feel that I am in good hands.
-
As someone who has never done therapy before and was afraid to begin, Brandon was the perfect fit. He spent time explaining how therapy would work and tailored our sessions to my specific needs. Over time I saw amazing improvements. Highly recommend.
-
Amrutha is an excellent counselor. She shows great care and concern for her clients and helps support them in building healthier lives. She spends time focusing on their strengths and how they can help themselves while showing them effective coping skills. She is a great listener and always makes her clients feel safe.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy approach designed to help people process and heal from traumatic or distressing experiences. It uses bilateral stimulation — typically through guided eye movements, tapping, or tones — to help the brain reprocess memories that may feel “stuck.” Over time, this can reduce the emotional intensity of those memories and make them easier to live with.
No. While EMDR was originally developed for PTSD, it’s now widely used to help with many concerns, including anxiety, panic, grief, phobias, relationship issues, and low self-worth. You don’t need a formal PTSD diagnosis to benefit from EMDR — many people use it to work through a wide range of difficult or unresolved experiences.
EMDR helps your brain reprocess distressing memories in a way that’s more adaptive and less emotionally charged. During sessions, you’ll focus on an aspect of a memory while engaging in bilateral stimulation, which helps your nervous system integrate the experience. You remain in control the entire time, and the process is designed to reduce the emotional weight of what you’re carrying — not to make you relive it.
At Peaceful Psychotherapy, EMDR is paced carefully and collaboratively. Early sessions focus on preparation — helping you build tools for grounding and emotional regulation. Once you're ready, your therapist will guide you through the reprocessing phase, using bilateral stimulation while you focus on specific memories. Sessions include frequent check-ins to keep you feeling supported and present.
That depends on your unique situation. Some people notice significant shifts after just a few sessions, especially when targeting a specific memory. Others benefit from longer-term work, particularly when processing complex or early-life trauma. Your therapist will work with you to set goals and tailor the process to your needs.
Yes — EMDR can be done effectively through online sessions. Our therapists are trained to deliver EMDR virtually using tools that replicate bilateral stimulation, such as visual cues, alternating audio tones, or tapping techniques. Many clients find online EMDR to be just as impactful as in-person sessions, with the added convenience of doing it from home.
Yes. EMDR is a well-established, evidence-based therapy that is typically covered under general mental health benefits. Peaceful Psychotherapy is in-network with Aetna, Cigna, Anthem BCBS, Optum, and UnitedHealthcare. We’re happy to verify your benefits and help you understand your coverage before starting.
Not necessarily. Everyone experiences EMDR a little differently. While strong emotions may come up, they’re often no more intense than what you might encounter in regular therapy or everyday life. Our therapists are trained to keep you within your window of tolerance — meaning we’ll go at a pace that feels safe and manageable. Your comfort and emotional safety are always a top priority.
