Process Trauma Without Having to Relive Every Detail
EMDR — Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing — is one of the most rigorously researched trauma treatments available. It helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their emotional charge and stop driving present-day symptoms like anxiety, hypervigilance, flashbacks, and emotional reactivity.
EMDR is endorsed by the WHO, the American Psychiatric Association, and the VA as a first-line treatment for PTSD. At Darin King Counseling, EMDR is delivered via secure telehealth to all Pennsylvania residents — and research confirms telehealth EMDR is equally effective as in-person delivery.
- Traumatic memories that intrude on daily life despite time having passed
- Hypervigilance — feeling constantly on alert, startling easily, difficulty relaxing
- Emotional reactivity that feels out of proportion to current situations
- Avoidance of people, places, or situations that trigger distressing memories
- Negative core beliefs about yourself rooted in past experiences
- Anxiety or panic that hasn’t fully responded to talk therapy alone

- Endorsed by WHO, APA, and VA as first-line trauma treatment
The EMDR Treatment Protocol
EMDR follows a structured 8-phase protocol — each phase building on the last, with safety and stabilization always as the foundation.
Assessment & Stabilization
We build safety, establish coping resources, and assess your readiness before any trauma processing begins. This phase is never rushed — your stability is the foundation of effective EMDR.
Desensitization & Reprocessing
Using bilateral stimulation, your brain reprocesses the target memory — reducing its emotional charge and installing more adaptive beliefs about yourself and the experience that occurred.
Closure & Integration
Every session ends with stabilization. We regularly reassess progress and ensure changes are integrating into your daily life. Treatment is complete when the memory no longer causes significant distress.
Proven Effective via Secure Video
Multiple peer-reviewed studies confirm telehealth EMDR produces equivalent outcomes to in-person delivery. We follow established telehealth EMDR protocols and ensure you have everything needed for safe, effective sessions.
