EMDR + Schema six-weekly
EMDR + Schema Therapy located in Anglesea, Surf Coast - servicing Torquay, Geelong and Surf Coast region. Online available Australia-wide.
I’m an Accredited EMDR Therapist, A Clinical Family Therapist and I’m trained in Schema Therapy for both individuals and couples. I integrate these ways of working into this six week program.
EMDR + Schema Six-Weekly Sessions are a great starting point for trauma healing if you’re new to these therapies or not ready for an intensive program.
These sessions include:
Initial Assessment: 90 minutes
Five Follow-Up Sessions: 90 minutes each, weekly
Extended sessions allow for deeper engagement and time to work with trauma memories. Ideal for those at the beginning their journey or continuing from an intensive program.
Why 90-minute sessions?
Extended sessions give us time to process and integrate memories and somatic experiences without rushing. They provide a safe, supportive space for addressing often distressing experiences you might have been hesitant to revisit.
“Trauma is a psychic wound that hardens you psychologically that then interferes with your ability to grow and develop. It pains you and now you’re acting out of pain. It induces fear and now you’re acting out of fear. Trauma is not what happens to you, it’s what happens inside you as a result of what happened to you.”

Week 1: 90-minute assessment session (Tues, Weds, or Thurs).
