What is
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy?
EMDR is considered a gold-standard treatment for trauma and PTSD. It works by helping your brain process and heal from painful or overwhelming experiences that have been stuck, allowing you to move forward without the emotional weight. Through guided eye movements or bilateral stimulation techniques, EMDR helps you reprocess traumatic memories in a safe and supportive environment so they no longer hold power over your thoughts, feelings, or behaviors.
Many people spend years trying to heal from trauma in traditional talk therapy sessions, which can sometimes exacerbate symptoms. EMDR is unique in its ability to bring about meaningful, lasting change in a relatively short period of time. Clients often find relief where other treatments have fallen short, allowing them to finally find freedom from the grip of trauma and reclaim their lives.

Ketamine + EMDR Intensives in Houston, Texas
the transformative benefits of EMDR and Ketamine
Ketamine therapy can bring unconscious material to the surface, shining a light on root issues that may have never been addressed in previous therapy. Ketamine also enhances neuroplasticity, making the brain more adaptable to change while improving mood. With new insights and a brain primed for healing, EMDR is then able to help you more effectively process and reframe distressing memories, emotions, and beliefs. This treatment combination allows for faster symptom relief, profound emotional breakthroughs, and meaningful change.

back to questions
Is it possible for me to fully recover from my eating disorder or heal my complex trauma? I feel like the work never ends.
Yes! It’s possible to lead a more free and fulfilling life that honors your past and creates space for a brighter future. If your healing journey has ever felt disorganized or like it’s one step forward and two steps back, our innovative and specialized treatment options could likely be beneficial for you. Oftentimes therapy only scratches the surface, offering skills to help you survive, not thrive. We're committed to diving deep to help you heal your pain at the source. That's where true healing happens.
back to questions
I’m not sure about ketamine or psychedelics in general. Can I still work with you?
Absolutely! While Houston Healing Collective offers ketamine-assisted therapy, we recognize that it's not for everyone! We are trained to treat eating disorders, trauma and anxiety, and family conflict through diverse therapy modalities, including EMDR & DBT, allowing us to find a treatment plan that works for you and your family.
back to questions
Can you guarantee that I’ll see results? I feel like I’ve tried everything already.
We understand your frustration with your journey so far and are here to honor your experience. That said, there isn’t a guarantee of what will or won't work for you. Our biggest intention with building your care plan is to make sure you have flexibility and fluidity as we determine which method(s) are the most aligned for you or your loved one.
back to questions
I’ve never been part of a community or group while receiving care before. What can I expect?
While it might seem counterintuitive to involve strangers in your healing journey—especially if you’ve worked one-on-one with care providers in the past—our clients often see faster, more effective results when incorporating our groups and retreats. This is because much of the depression, anxiety, and shame you’ve experienced in the past has taken place in solitude. But at Houston Healing Collective, we believe that true healing happens in relationships and in community.
back to questions
Do you take insurance?
Houston Healing Collective is not in-network with any insurance panels. However, we will be able to provide you with an itemized receipt (called a superbill) that you can submit to insurance for potential reimbursement. Through our resources and partnerships with various organizations, we are able to offer financial aid, payment plans, and reduced rate services.
