Hello! Welcome to my website. My name is Lemecia Lindsey and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified EMDR therapist and the owner of Vancouver EMDR Therapy.
EMDR therapy offers deep and lasting healing for people struggling with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, chronic stress and more. I want to provide you with hope that healing can take place for you, that you can recover from whatever painful life experiences that you are currently facing, and that your life can be transformed. I know because I get the privilege of seeing it every day!
Our life experiences shape who we are. These experiences both the good and not so good, effect us. Sometimes the negative effects show up immediately such as, developing PTSD after being a victim of a crime or being involved in a car accident. Other times, we feel the trauma effects over time such as developing depression after years of being in an unsatisfying or abusive relationship or after the loss of a loved one. We can experience anxiety disorders, addictions and chronic pain pain as adults due to experiencing years of childhood abuse, sexual abuse, neglect or attachment trauma with parents/caregivers.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) therapy works directly with the brain and the way memories, thoughts, feelings and body sensations are stored when we are traumatized or overwhelmed by negative life experiences. I integrate this powerful, research-based trauma recovery method into my work with adults.
Whatever it is that brings you to therapy I will support you on your journey to wellness by creating a safe place for you to share your story, explore your goals for therapy and develop an individualized approach for our work together. I use a strengths-based and holistic approach in working with clients that may include combining EMDR therapy with Internal Family Systems and Ego State therapy (inner child/parts work), LENS Neurofeedback and Integrative Medicine Mental Health approaches.
Please take a look at my website and reach out if you have any questions. I am committed to serving the community of Clark County Washington by supporting individuals with trauma and chronic stress to help them heal, so that they can live a life that gives them meaning. At Vancouver EMDR Therapy, PLLC, you can expect that I will be Authentic, Innovative, Strengths-Based, Compassionate, Optimistic and Laugh with you.

Neurofeedback is direct training for the brain. Neurofeedback is also called EEG Biofeedback, because it is based on electrical brain activity, the electro-encephalogram, or EEG. Neurofeedback is training in self-regulation. Self-regulation is a necessary part of optimal brain performance and function. Self-regulation training allows the nervous system to function better.
