about me
Hina Ansari
I am a licensed professional clinical counselor, and an EMDR Certified therapist. My area of focus is Trauma, Depression, Sexual Abuse, Anxiety, PTSD, and Social Anxiety. When I first started as a new therapist in a busy private practice, I quickly realized that most of my clients had suffered some form of trauma in their lives that was keeping them stuck. I trained to be a counselor because I truly wanted to help people overcome their past. As I came across more and more clients struggling with their trauma symptoms, I started to look around for ways to better prepare myself to help the population I served. I got trained in EMDR therapy, and started using that as a modality to help my existing clients. Since COVID, I have been offering remote EMDR and am amazed at the results. EMDR changes lives. My clients report better relationships and happier lives. Let me help you overcome your traumas through EMDR reprocessing.
According to EMDR International Association (EMDRIA) is a structured therapy that encourages the, vividness. EMDR therapy can help the clients with the resolution of traumatic and disturbing adverse life experiences. EMDR accomplishes this resolution by implementing a unique standardized set of procedures and clinical protocols that incorporate dual focus of attention and alternating bilateral visual, auditory and/or tactile stimulation. This process activates the components of memory-disturbing life events and facilitates resumption of adaptive information processing and integration. This treatment is particularly beneficial for clients with addiction and co-occurring trauma and abuse histories. Since its development and standardization of therapeutic protocol, EMDR therapy has helped millions of people of all ages relieve many types of psychological stress. EMDR would be considered an integrative psychotherapy approach intended to treat the psychological disorder related to trauma events, anxiety, social anxiety and depression. My drive to heal trauma in my clients led me to get training in EMDR intensive therapy. EMDR truly changes lives. I have clients who report better relationships and happier lives. Let me heal your trauma through EMDR therapy. I provide EMDR therapy remotely via a safe and secure Telehealth platform to help my clients.

How Does EMDR Therapy Treat Trauma?
Old disturbing material from past trauma is stored in the brain and stays there raw and unprocessed like a tangled ball of yarn. When triggers appear within the environment, clients experience a wide range of emotions such as memories, flashbacks, avoidance behaviors, nightmares and disturbing physical symptoms and emotions. During EMDR reprocessing, a movement is fascinated between two regions of the brain and trauma memories are consolidated and processed. The trauma memories through EMDR reprocessing are processed without engaging into an extensive verbal recall for the benefit of the clients. I use EMDR therapy, Cognitive Behavior therapy, Dialectical Behavior therapy, and mindfulness techniques, including visualization and positive psychology to treat my clients. I have a people-centered approach to counseling.
I love helping people. I believe that people have a limitless potential for personal growth. I feel fortunate to be a helping professional to witness people grow.
How is EMDR Therapy Done Via Telehealth?
At the Healing Light therapy, we used a safe and confidential HIPAA compliant telehealth platform. Clients are taught specific skills used during EMDR therapy to help them with trauma reprocessing.
What is Intensive EMDR Therapy:
An EMDR intensive therapy comprises 3- 6 hours of therapy in a day. During an EMDR Intensive session we used specialized skills to heal and uncover past traumas that are keeping you stuck in your life. I have seen clients make tremendous progress with EMDR therapy. I trained in EMDR intensives as it offers a fast and effective treatment method backed by research https://www.emdria.org/podcast/

How does Intensive EMDR Therapy work:
To ensure that you are a good fit for this treatment we will conduct a phone interview followed by Initial Assessment. Typically, EMDR intensive sessions are usually scheduled for 2-6 hours, and there is a minimum of a 2-hour session. During the intake, we ask you a lot of questions to ensure you are a good fit for this treatment and rule out any adverse conditions that may be a barrier for treatment. Your safety is my number one priority. I take that very seriously.
Next, we will schedule the appointment and send the paperwork to complete and return to us, this paper work may consist of an intake questionnaire, informed consent, privacy policies, and your rights and responsibilities within the therapy setting. We will also include some assessment scales to measure the severity of the current symptoms to get a baseline measurement. We encourage you to complete the paperwork as soon as possible to secure a spot. Once the paperwork along with half payment is received your session will be scheduled. Your payment for the remainder of the session is due 2 weeks prior to the start of the treatment. You can reschedule this session, 2 weeks prior to treatment date, for a date within 3 months. After 3 months there will be no refunds issued.
Scheduling and Costs:
Your appointment will be scheduled six weeks out for EMDR intensive treatment and is priced at $1200 a day for a full day of session. A typical session consists of meeting for 3 hours, a break for an hour, and then followed by another 3 hours of reprocessing. When we meet, we can give you a good guess of how long but know that it’s a guesstimate at best, because when we start you may have other issues that we have no way of knowing until we start. You can decide to choose which traumas you want to target first. Most people schedule 3-4 days of treatment. After the treatment is completed, I will send you the assessment again after two weeks to measure progress after treatment and do a free follow up session with you to check on your progress. If there are existing areas that you think should be revisited, we can set up other sessions later if you’d like.
