Need EMDR therapist
I have seen older recommendations for EMDR therapists (for past trauma and consequent anxiety) but I'm hoping to get some responses that are more current. I'm in the Berkeley/Albany area. If you can recommend a certified EMDR practitioner I'd be most grateful. Also, if you know anything about their insurance policies, that would help, too. And thank you!

Hello,
This may be farther than you want to travel, but I can personally recommend Christina Narensky for EMDR. She has helped both me and my husband, separately. She is located immediately across the Park St bridge in Alameda and is not only effective but a lovely, warm person as well. We are Kaiser members, so have paid her out of pocket. Sorry I don’t have info on her insurance coverage. Best of luck!

I know this was posted a while ago, but if you are still looking, you can try Bay Area Trauma Recovery Clinical Services: https://www.traumarecoveryclinic.org/
They do not accept insurance, but they offer sliding scale rates.
I don’t have personal experience with them, but am a psychologist at Stanford. We often recommended this practice to patients with insufficient health insurance coverage who cannot access our services. We have also had several trainees complete rotations there with success.
Hope that helps!
