EMDR Intensives & Couples Therapy

Trauma-informed therapy supporting individuals and couples to heal relational wounds and reconnect with themselves and each other.

Where compassionate presence meets evidence-based intensive therapy.

Based in Anglesea on Victoria’s Surf Coast, I offer in-person EMDR intensives and immersive couples therapy for individuals and partners ready to move beyond weekly sessions and work more deeply with the patterns shaping their lives.

Let’s create meaningful change together.

Trauma-informed somatic EMDR intensive therapy with Rachael Jolly in a healing therapy space

Hi there, I’m Rachael Jolly - Pronouns she / her

I work with individuals and couples ready to explore the patterns shaping their lives and relationships through in-person sessions on Victoria’s Surf Coast.

At Freedom to Breathe, I offer:

  • EMDR intensive programs for focused trauma integration

  • Immersive couples therapy to restore connection and shift relational patterns

  • A systemic, compassionate approach grounded in EMDR, Schema Therapy, and an understanding of how trauma lives in the body

Together, we explore how your experiences are shaped not only by what has happened, but also by the systems, relationships, and roles you have lived within.

This is a space to gently untangle those layers so you can breathe more freely, connect more deeply, and move forward with clarity.

Learn more about me

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps the mind and body process distressing memories so they can be held with greater ease and less emotional weight. Within an intensive format, this work can unfold in a more focused and supported way.

Ways we can work together

  • SO CALM AND RESPONSIVE

    “After 40 years of carrying trauma, I reached out to Rachel not having had any previous experience in EMDR or trauma therapy. At first, I was very nervous, however Rachel was so calm and responsive to my nervousness at the first appointment, I found myself being able to relax.”

  • PROFOUND EXPERIENCE

    “I found my experience with Rachael to be profound. I really enjoyed the intensive style of work. Although it was indeed intense, I felt deeply safe with Rachael at all times no matter what came up in the reprocessing.”
