EMDR Therapy & EMDR Intensives in Longmont, Colorado

You may be doing well in many areas of your life, but certain experiences from the past have a way of showing up in the present.

​

A painful memory still carries an emotional charge. A situation triggers anxiety that feels bigger than the moment. You understand why you feel the way you do, but understanding it hasn't completely changed how you feel.

​

If you're ready to get to the root of your trauma and triggers, EMDR therapy can help you work directly with the experiences that are still affecting you.

​

What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an integrated, evidence-based psychotherapy that helps people reprocess traumatic and distressing experiences so they no longer have the same hold on the present. The approach is customized to your needs and experiences.

​

EMDR allows us to identify what is still "stuck" and work toward processing it in a structured, intentional way.

EMDR may help you:

• Reduce the emotional intensity of painful or traumatic memories

• Feel less reactive to reminders and triggers

• Shift negative beliefs about yourself that developed from past experiences

• Feel more confident and capable when facing difficult situations

• Strengthen your ability to cope with future stress and challenges

• Move forward without the past having such a powerful influence on the present

​

Is EMDR Right for You?

My practice is especially suited for adults who are ready to actively work on past experiences rather than spending most sessions in traditional talk therapy.

​

You don't need to have everything figured out before you begin. Part of EMDR treatment is identifying the experiences, beliefs, and triggers that may be contributing to what you're experiencing today.

Before beginning reprocessing, we'll make sure you have the resources and stability you need to approach the work safely and effectively.

​

Weekly EMDR Therapy or an EMDR Intensive?

Some people prefer to work through EMDR in regular therapy sessions. Others want a longer block of uninterrupted time to focus on a particular experience, trauma, fear, or issue.

​

I offer both ongoing EMDR therapy and extended EMDR Intensives in Longmont, Colorado.

EMDR Intensives provide dedicated time to move beyond the limits of a traditional therapy hour and focus more deeply on your treatment goals in a shorter period of time.

Work With an EMDR-Certified Therapist

I'm Lauren Borkowski, LPC-S, an EMDRIA Certified Therapist in Longmont, Colorado.

I specialize in helping adults use EMDR to process experiences from the past, reduce their impact in the present, and strengthen resilience for whatever comes next.

​

The goal of EMDR therapy is to help your brain more healthily and effectively reprocess the experience so that you can remember the past without continuing to experience it in the same negative or triggering way.

We'll identify what you want to work on, assess your readiness for reprocessing, and develop a treatment plan that fits your goals.
