Freedom from Emotional Pain—Without Reliving Your Trauma

I'm Carolyn Poole, and I've been helping Austin clients heal from trauma for over 30 years.

If you're struggling with trauma, anxiety, or painful memories that won't let go, EMDR therapy offers a proven path to healing. In my Austin office near MoPac, I help clients process traumatic experiences and find lasting relief—often in just a few sessions.

Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn't require you to describe disturbing memories in detail. Instead, it helps your brain naturally process what's stuck, allowing you to move forward with your life.

WHAT IS EMDR?

EMDR helps your brain reprocess traumatic experiences so they no longer negatively impact your life. Using a small, made for EMDR machine, with comfortable headphones and hand-held tappers, EMDR enables the nervous system to release the stuck trauma, so the emotional charge of painful memories is greatly reduced. The result: Memories that once triggered intense anxiety or fear become manageable. You remember what happened, with a calm nervous system, which frees you to be responsive, not reactive, to life events.

WHO BENEFITS FROM EMDR?

  • PTSD, trauma, and life shocks from accidents, assaults, childhood abuse and neglect, and other causes

  • Anxiety and panic that isn’t released through talk therapy

  • Unresolved grief and loss

  • Negative beliefs like “I’m not safe” or “It was my fault”

  • Nightmares and flashbacks
