Is This You?
The EMbody Trauma Recovery Program may be right for you if:
You finished IOP and still cannot get back to school, work, or routines to your potential.
You are stable enough for outpatient life but not stable enough to thrive.
You feel mentally motivated but your nervous system says otherwise.
You know why you are struggling but nothing changes.
You want to do trauma work, but group settings are overstimulating, triggering, or exhausting.
You are tired of “coping” and want root-cause healing so you can actually live your life again.
You are in early recovery from trauma-related patterns such as eating disorders, substance use, gambling, gaming, or risky behaviors, and you need structured support to maintain progress.
Your trauma history affects your daily life, your relationships, your sense of safety, or your sense of self, and you want to stop surviving and start living the life you choose.

How EMbody Fits Into the Continuum of Care
Structured support between therapy and IOP so you can stabilize, process, and return to life.
You don’t need IOP, but you need more than weekly therapy.
EMbody gives you the structured, individualized care you need to move forward without impacting your ability to study or work.
About the EMbody Trauma Recovery Program
The EMbody Recovery Program is here for people who need more than weekly therapy but don’t need the intensity of an IOP.
Many of our clients have already completed an IOP and are ready for the next step: structured support that helps them keep moving forward.
This three-month program combines yoga therapy and EMDR in a private, one-on-one format. It is designed for people in early recovery from addiction, those living with trauma, or anyone who feels stuck and unable to function fully at work, school, or in relationships.
For clients with a history of substance use, sessions do not focus on managing the addiction itself, but on addressing the trauma, stress, and nervous system patterns that often underlie it.
EMbody offers practical tools for healing and a safe, structured space to make lasting progress.
12-week Program Roadmap
Month 1
Stabilize
Build nervous system steadiness with yoga therapy and simple home yoga practice.
Feel safer in your body.
Month 2

EMDR for root-cause trauma work.
Stay supported with ongoing somatic regulation skills.
Month 3
Integrate

Daily functioning, meaning, purpose, and next steps.
Care Coordination You Can Feel
We communicate.
Your team talks every week. Skills and insights transfer across sessions so it feels like one integrated treatment, not two separate providers.
We adapt.
Progress is monitored and your plan shifts as you change. Nothing is cookie-cutter. Everything responds to your nervous system and real life.
You are supported.
When EMDR goes deeper, you stay resourced. Your yoga therapist helps you manage daily stress, sleep, meals, school or work demands, and the emotional waves that come with trauma processing.
Accessibility and Safety
Trauma work happens at your pace.
You decide when to go deeper. Nothing is forced and nothing is rushed.
No groups and no public disclosure.
All care is one-on-one. You never sit for hours listening to other people’s trauma stories, and you are not asked to share yours in a group.
No need to touch your toes.
No required poses, no flexibility work, and no floor work if it’s uncomfortable. Every practice has an alternative. There’s always another way! That’s our mantra. We lean into what feels “easy”, because the work should adapt to you, not the other way around.

An Evidence-Based Approach
Clinically Recommended
EMDR is recommended by the World Health Organization, the American Psychological Association, and the VA and Department of Defense for trauma and PTSD.
Also emerging as a trauma treatment in its own right, yoga therapy offers proven symptom improvement for PTSD.
Research-Informed Approach
Yoga therapy has research support for improving anxiety, depression, sleep, PTSD symptoms, trauma symptoms, and nervous system regulation in people with trauma histories.
Evidence-Based Techniques for Brain and Body
Trauma lives in both the mind and the nervous system. Combining EMDR with yoga therapy helps clients stay calmer and more regulated during trauma processing.
Better Tolerance of EMDR
When the body can settle, the mind can process. Yoga therapy reduces overwhelm, shutdown, and dissociation so EMDR can work more smoothly.
Real-Life Skills
Clients learn practical tools for panic, stress, sleep, stomach distress, and emotional reactivity. These skills keep helping outside of sessions.
Not alternative. Not experimental.
The integration reflects modern trauma research and neuroscience that center on healing the whole person through somatic and biopsychosocial models of care.
