Trauma & EMDR Therapy

Trauma doesn’t just live in memories — it can stay stored in the body, shaping how we see ourselves, how we connect with others, and how safe we feel in the world. These experiences may show up as anxiety, nightmares, hypervigilance, emotional numbness, or difficulty trusting yourself and others. Left unprocessed, trauma can feel like it controls your present.

At De Oruga a Mariposa Therapy, we offer a supportive and structured approach to healing trauma. Using EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a highly effective evidence-based therapy, we help your brain reprocess distressing experiences so they no longer carry the same emotional weight. Alongside EMDR, we integrate somatic practices that gently reconnect you with your body, allowing it to release tension and return to a state of safety and balance.

Trauma therapy can help you:

• Reduce triggers and intrusive memories

• Rebuild a sense of safety and stability in your body

• Shift negative self-beliefs into self-compassion and empowerment

• Restore trust in yourself and others

• Move forward with clarity, resilience, and hope

Healing from trauma is not about erasing the past — it’s about reclaiming your life in the present. Together, we’ll create a compassionate path toward wholeness and freedom.
