EMDR Therapy in London
Effective Trauma Treatment with a Certified EMDR Therapist
Living in London can be intense — fast-moving, overstimulating, emotionally exhausting. You may feel anxious, depleted, or caught in patterns that talk therapy hasn’t shifted. If the city feels like too much — or if past experiences keep intruding on the present — you’re not alone. And support is available.
At Equinox Therapy, I specialise in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), a research-supported approach that helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories and deeply held beliefs — without having to relive every painful detail.
As a UK citizen and longtime resident of Primrose Hill, I now offer EMDR therapy to adults across London. Whether you’ve tried talk therapy before and found it lacking, or you’re simply seeking a more focused, evidence-based path forward, EMDR can help you move beyond trauma, anxiety, or entrenched emotional patterns that keep resurfacing. Sessions are private, online, and designed to meet you where you are.

About James Lavino

I’m James, a licensed professional counselor certified in EMDR therapy. I specialize in working with adults who feel “stuck” — often due to unresolved trauma, anxious thinking, or painful patterns that haven’t shifted through talk therapy alone.
My approach is evidence-based and deeply personalized, combining clinical precision with a strong respect for each client’s emotional and psychological landscape. Through EMDR, I help people move toward greater clarity and strength.
Alongside my London-based work, I maintain a well-established private practice in the United States. I’m a UK citizen and longtime Primrose Hill resident, offering EMDR therapy to adults across London via secure, confidential online sessions.
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR therapy helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories in a safe and structured way, often leading to significant emotional relief. It is especially effective for:
-
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
-
Childhood trauma
-
Anxiety, panic, and phobias
-
Grief and loss
-
Negative self-beliefs and internalized shame

“I was sceptical at first—I’d tried therapy before and always felt like I was just talking in circles. EMDR was completely different. James helped me understand patterns I’d been stuck in for years, without having to explain every detail of my past. Even though the sessions were online, they felt personal and grounded. I’m calmer now, less reactive, and finally able to move forward.”
