Do You Feel Stuck in the Past?

It’s exhausting, isn’t it? Reliving painful memories, feeling triggered by everyday situations, or carrying the weight of fear, shame, or anxiety can make life feel unmanageable. Maybe you’ve tried to move on, but the past keeps pulling you back. You’re not the only one feeling this, and it’s not your fault. Trauma has a way of holding us hostage, even years after the events that caused it.


If you’re tired of feeling overwhelmed or unable to fully engage with the people and moments that matter, Eye Movement Integration (EMI) in Fort Myers might be the solution you’ve been looking for.

Here’s how it can make a difference:

  • Neutralize Triggers: Stop flashbacks and other unwanted responses to past events.

  • Process Painful Memories: Shift traumatic experiences into the past where they belong.

  • Reclaim Emotional Balance: Find relief from anxiety, fear, and shame tied to trauma.

  • Strengthen Relationships: Build trust with yourself and others by healing emotional wounds.

What Is EMI (Emotional Mind Integration) therapy?

  • EMI is a brief, experiential, solution-focused approach that can resolve a wide range of conflicts, disturbances, and trauma in just 3-5 sessions for many clients.

  • It uses guided eye movements and slow introduction of activating words or phrases to access and integrate fragmented traumatic memories, reducing symptoms and distress.

  • EMI is both a neurotherapy and psychotherapy, with roots in neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).

  • The therapy operates by guiding the client's self-healing process, focusing on the presenting issue, locating its source, and facilitating resolution within a 60-minute session

  • EMI uses 22 to 29 different eye movement patterns, which is significantly more than other eye movement therapies like EMDR.

  • Unlike some talk therapies, EMI accesses the unconscious mind (93-95% of the brain) through a mild neuro-trance, potentially offering more long-term results.

  • EMI can be effective in treating acute and post-traumatic stress, phobias, addiction symptoms, and negative or self-limiting thoughts.

  • The therapy can help clients transform vivid, traumatic memories into less distressing representations, even altering associated sensory experiences like smells.

Frequently Asked Questions About EMI Therapy

  • How does EMI work?

    EMI uses guided eye movements to access and process traumatic memories, helping your brain reframe and store them as part of your past.

  • How many sessions will I need?

    It depends on the complexity of the trauma. Single-event traumas can often be resolved in one session, while more complex cases may require multiple sessions.

  • Is EMI safe?

    Porn addiction is often caused by a mix of coping with stress, trauma, or emotional pain and the brain’s response to the dopamine it provides. Over time, this creates a cycle that feels impossible to escape alone.

  • What can I expect during a session?

    During a session, we’ll use smooth eye movements while focusing on specific memories. You may feel emotions or sensations, but these reactions typically lessen as the session progresses.
