Why choose our practice for EMDR therapy in Michigan?

At Huffmaster Therapy Collective, our priority is getting you matched with the best therapist for you. We want to make sure that you feel comfortable and supported so you can get the most out of your time in therapy.

Here are a few reasons why our clients choose us.

  • All of our clinicians specialize in trauma therapy for teens and adults. In addition to providing EMDR therapy, we also use methods like psychodynamic therapy, trauma-informed CBT, and more.

  • We believe that effective therapy begins with a strong client-therapist connection. That's why we take the time to understand your unique story and build a trusting, secure therapeutic relationship.

  • Our practice exclusively offers online therapy, making it easy for you to access treatment from the comfort of your home or office anywhere in Michigan. Plus, research shows that online EMDR is incredibly effective.

  • Our approach to therapy goes beyond just treating symptoms. We find that people get the deepest, longest-lasting results from a holistic approach that explores all the layers of their experiences.

  • We strive to create a welcoming space where you can feel free to be yourself, which we believe is crucial for effective EMDR therapy. We want you to know that you're cared for here.

Still not sure if we're the right fit? We welcome you to schedule a free, no-pressure consultation to discuss your specific situation.

When our practice may not be the right fit

While we strive to help as many people as possible, there are situations where The Collective may not be the best fit:

  • If you're experiencing eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), or substance abuse disorders, which can require specialized care

  • If you're actively in crisis and need immediate, intensive support

  • If you're seeking court-mandated therapy or require in-person sessions

In these cases, I recommend reaching out to other resources, such as:

What's most important is that you get the support you need and deserve, even if that's not with us.

 FAQs

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy technique designed to help people heal from trauma and other distressing life experiences. It works by helping the brain reprocess traumatic memories, which can reduce trauma-related symptoms like flashbacks and uncomfortable physical sensations.

    During EMDR sessions, we'll guide you through bilateral stimulation exercises (typically eye movements or tapping) while you recall traumatic memories, allowing your brain to reprocess these experiences and find a path forward that's not dictated by your past.

  • EMDR was originally developed as a trauma treatment. However, according to the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing International Association (EMDRIA), emerging research shows that it can also help with:

    • Anxiety

    • Depression

    • OCD

    • Chronic pain

    • Addiction

    ...and more.

    If you're not sure whether EMDR therapy is right for you, schedule a consultation to learn more about how we can help.

  • While EMDR is safe for many people, it may not be the best fit for everyone. It's generally not recommended for individuals with:

    • Severe dissociative disorders

    • Active psychosis

    • Severe cognitive impairments

    • Uncontrolled bipolar disorder

    Not sure if EMDR is right for you?Reach out today to see whether it's a good fit. Note that we also provide traditional talk therapy techniques in addition to EMDR.

  • Yes, many insurance plans in Michigan cover EMDR therapy as part of mental health treatment. However, coverage can vary. We recommend checking with your insurance provider about your specific coverage.

    Our practice is in-network with most major insurance plans. Even if we're not in-network with your plan, you may still be able to use out-of-network benefits to get reimbursed for some session costs. Check out our fees and insurance page for more information.

  • When selecting an EMDR therapist, consider the following:

    • Verify their training in EMDR

    • Look for experience in treating your specific concerns

    • Check if they offer a consultation to discuss their approach

    • Consider logistics like scheduling availability and insurance

    • Trust your instincts about your comfort level with the therapist
