EMDR Therapy in Bozeman, Montana
Somatic, Trauma-Informed Counseling for Deep Healing
At Sub Rosa Therapy in Bozeman, Montana, we offer EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as part of our integrative, somatically-informed mental health and trauma counseling services.
EMDR is a structured, body-aware method that helps process unresolved trauma without needing to retell the entire story. It’s a powerful approach for individuals looking to heal emotional wounds, reduce nervous system reactivity, and move forward with greater ease and clarity—with the support of a trained therapist.
What Is EMDR?
EMDR therapy uses bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or auditory tones) to help the brain reorganize and integrate memories that remain emotionally charged or “stuck.”
Grounded in the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model, EMDR enables clients to process distressing experiences—often without needing to fully verbalize or relive them.
Many people seek EMDR when traditional talk therapy hasn't resolved the root cause of anxiety, trauma, or emotional dysregulation. Our mental health therapists integrate this approach with somatic and relational work to support deep, embodied healing.
“I still remember what happened, but it no longer controls me.”
What Can EMDR Help With?
Our Bozeman EMDR counseling services support clients navigating:
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex trauma
Anxiety, panic attacks, and chronic stress
Depression and emotional numbness
Grief, guilt, and shame
Somatic symptoms tied to unresolved trauma
Attachment wounds and relationship challenges
EMDR vs. Somatic Experiencing (SE)
Both EMDR and Somatic Experiencing (SE) are somatic trauma therapies—but they work differently:
EMDR follows a structured protocol using bilateral stimulation to target specific memories and shift emotional or physiological responses.
Somatic Experiencing helps resolve stored survival responses by increasing the body’s capacity for sensation and presence.
At Sub Rosa, mental health therapists often integrate both approaches to support the body and mind in healing together.
