EMDR Therapists in Dania Beach, FL
I pull mostly from EMDR, ACT, CBT, and Ego State work—but at the core, my approach is about understanding your story, helping you feel grounded, and finding creative ways to express what you’ve been carrying.
Sometimes our brain feels like all the files are open, things are on fire, and papers are everywhere and we’re not sure where to even start. You’re here at that start! I like to think of therapy as sort of our time to do “self-audit” and take a moment to zoom out at what’s happening in our lives and make sure we’re going the direction we planned and if figuring out what turns we need to make. My aim is to create a space where you can feel fully yourself-supported, understood, and empowered. Whether it’s feelings of depression, anxiety, trauma, or relationship struggles, I’m here to help you navigate back to yourself.

Choosing to start therapy is the first step to inviting change into your life. I love working with clients who are feeling stuck.

You may desire to end repeated patterns in life but simply don't know how to change. That's where I can come in... to help you explore and heal from your past, connect that to present issues, and help you pave a way to a thriving future!

TESTIMONIAL. Prior to meeting Pamela Goffman I was desperately seeking a psychotherapist who could help me with my deep depression and feelings of emptiness and loneliness. For a period of five years I counseled with four different therapists to seek peace in my life. My life was a mess during my five year search, I had hit rock bottom. It had to be divine intervention that lead me to Pamela Goffman. While the four previous therapists talked me through my immediate issue(s), Pamela quickly identified the core of my pain and we began our journey of healing together.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
