EMDR therapy for trauma, anxiety, and overwhelm

Online EMDR therapy and EMDR intensives for adults throughout California

You don’t have to navigate this alone

Have you been through something difficult or overwhelming that left you feeling changed? Perhaps you find yourself more on edge, anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected than you'd like to be. You may notice yourself stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, struggling to move past difficult experiences, or feeling exhausted from carrying so much on your own.

I'm Julia Raffaini, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified EMDR Therapist providing teletherapy to adults throughout California. My work centers on trauma and anxiety, and EMDR is a primary part of how I help clients heal and move forward. I also work with depression, chronic pain, chronic stress, and other overwhelming life experiences.

My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs. While EMDR is central to my work, I also draw from CBT, ACT, and polyvagal-informed approaches, integrating different techniques based on what may be most helpful for each person. I believe symptoms often make sense in the context of a person's life experiences, and therapy can help create space for greater understanding, healing, and lasting change. My goal is to help you feel more grounded, connected, and confident as you move forward.

Taking the first step can feel intimidating. I offer a free 15-minute consultation where we can discuss what brings you to therapy, answer your questions, and explore whether we're a good fit for working together.

EMDR therapy for trauma, anxiety, and overwhelming experiences

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy approach that can help you process difficult experiences that continue to affect how you feel, think, or respond in the present. You don't need to have a PTSD diagnosis to benefit from EMDR. It may be helpful when past experiences, ongoing stress, or other overwhelming events continue to feel emotionally or physically activated.

EMDR is a primary part of my work with adults throughout California. I also use other therapeutic approaches and techniques based on your individual needs and goals.
