Difficult Conversations in the Therapy Room

I’m excited to share an article I co-wrote with faculty member Katie Quinlan, CMHC, featured in the Spring 2025 issue of Go With That® magazine, published by EMDRIA™. In "Difficult Conversations in the Therapy Room," we explore real-life vignettes from our practices, offering insight into the subtle, yet powerful, implicit conversations we often have with our clients.

Where is the line between being non-judgmental and making a judgement?

As EMDR therapists, we dive into how these relational dynamics shape our work. This article emphasizes the importance of keeping our hearts open—regardless of the complicated clinical situations our clients bring—to foster a deeper, more meaningful connection. It’s an invitation to reflect on how we show up as therapists and how that presence can profoundly impact the healing process.

Curious? Give it a read and join the conversation about how we can continue to bring our best, most authentic selves to this work.
