About
About EMDR therapy in Coquitlam
People in Coquitlam often ask us about EMDR when a hard memory keeps coming back uninvited. A crash might replay each time you merge onto a busy road, or a raised voice might set your heart racing. Some people wake from nightmares, then drag through the workday, or feel on guard at home without knowing why. You do not need a diagnosis or a crisis to ask about it.
EMDR, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, uses side-to-side eye movements while you recall a memory. You can see an EMDR counsellor in Coquitlam at our Coquitlam Centre office on Anson Avenue, on Lincoln Avenue near Ponderosa, or on Lougheed Highway. You can also meet by video from anywhere in BC. The free 15-minute consultation is a good place to start.
What EMDR therapy in Coquitlam looks like
First comes the free consultation, a phone or video call where you can ask what EMDR is like and whether it suits you. Next, our intake team recommends counsellors who suit what you need, your language, your budget and where you want to meet. Early sessions of EMDR therapy in Coquitlam focus on getting to know you, at your pace, and on learning ways to feel steady, such as picturing a calm place. You do not have to share details before you are ready.
When you both feel ready, your counsellor may ask you to bring a memory to mind while your eyes follow their fingers from side to side, or while you notice taps that switch sides. Then you pause and say what came up: a thought, a feeling or a body sensation. Many people find a memory can start to feel less sharp. You decide together how long to keep going, in person at a Coquitlam office or by video.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR was developed in the 1980’s by Francine Shapiro after a chance discovery that when she was recalling past trauma, rapidly moving her eyes back and forth seemed to quickly diminish her distress.

FAQs
Common questions about EMDR therapy in CoquitlamCommon questions
Can't find your answer? Ask us a question.
Yes, you can meet an EMDR counsellor in person in Coquitlam. Depending on the counsellor, you can meet at our Coquitlam Centre office on Anson Avenue, our Lincoln Avenue office near Ponderosa, or our office on Lougheed Highway. Our intake team can suggest a counsellor at the office that is easiest for you to reach.
Yes, you can meet an EMDR counsellor by video from anywhere in BC, including from your home in Coquitlam. Online, the side-to-side part may use eye movements that follow a point on the screen, or tapping your own shoulders or knees. Your counsellor can talk with you about whether video feels steady enough for you, and some people choose a mix of video and in-person sessions.
No, you usually do not need to tell every detail of what happened. In EMDR, you hold part of a memory in mind, such as an image or a feeling, during the eye movements, then say briefly what you noticed. You choose what to share, and you can ask to pause or stop at any time.
A good start is the free 15-minute consultation by phone or video. Our intake team can then point you to counsellors who fit what you need, your language, your budget and the office you prefer. In your first session, you might ask how they help you prepare before memory work, and notice whether you feel safe with them, since feeling safe is an important part of EMDR.
Counselling, including EMDR, is not an emergency service, so please do not wait for a session. If you are in crisis or thinking about suicide, call or text 9-8-8, call 1-800-SUICIDE (1-800-784-2433), or call 911 if you are in danger. When you do start EMDR, your counsellor moves at your pace and helps you feel steady before any deeper work on painful memories.
