Integral Eye Movement Technique (IEMT, originally mirrored off EMDR) in Visalia, CA

IEMT (originally mirrored off EMDR) is a brief change technique that reduces negative emotional states associated with past traumas by reprocessing them through eye movements, offering quick and effective relief.

IEMT is a therapeutic approach for PTSD and other trauma-related conditions. This Technique helps in collapsing negative memories and associated emotions, often within moments.

Our eyes play a dual role within the intricate weave of human thought. They observe the world around us and provide a direct path to our innermost psychological realms. How we direct our gaze can uncover significant insights about our internal states.

Memories and imagination are more than just mental concepts; they are anchored in our physical and psychological makeup. The processes of storing and retrieving memories and visualizing our aspirations are closely linked to eye movements. This subtle choreography narrates a story that lies beneath our conscious awareness.

I.E.M.T. is a brief change technique that can reduce the negative emotional states that are associated with past negative memories and negative events.

The mind encodes memories and emotions through visual, auditory, gustatory, or kinesthetic experiences. Pleasant memories tend to be time-stamped (in the past) and have a nice feeling or emotion attached to the memory. Traumatic memories may not have a timestamp, causing the memory to feel like it is happening in real-time. IEMT helps you leave these negative emotional states where they belong—in the past.

The eye choreography causes the negative memory/emotion trauma to become desensitized, reprocessing it so it no longer creates the charge it did. Often, clients will even forget what it was.

One of the amazing attributes of IEMT is that during an IEMT session, the client does not have to convey the content of the problem. There doesn't have to be an uncomfortable 'reliving' of events to clear these negative emotions or memories.

It works quite quickly, too. Sessions are typically 45 to 55 minutes.

IEMT is not the grand unified theory of therapy and change work and is still a developing model, but is a very useful adjunctive for the trained therapists and when used in the right hands can provide an excellent remedial tool for emotional change and a generative tool for identity change. Practitioners are reporting that IEMT enables excellent results where previously a good outcome might have appeared improbable.

    I worked with Ilah on weight release, and even a year later, I continue to see results! I was even pregnant this year, and in my postpartum phase, I weigh even less than my pre-pregnancy weight! Ilah’s sessions incorporate her personal life journey, humor, and helpful advice that makes things click for me. Her hypno is incredibly relaxing; she has a very soothing, motherly voice that allows me to go so deep I often fall asleep right after the session. Ilah is incredibly congruent; she embodies what she preaches, and I am often inspired by her fearlessness and openness to change. She is like a best friend that is there for you, gets you, and accesses your Subconscious Mind in a way that transforms your life! Anytime I feel a sense of hopelessness, I think back to what Ilah says and get inspired. She is also helpful in the Hypno community, always supporting other Hypnotherapists and giving helpful advice. I highly recommend her services!

    I booked a Smoking cessation program with Ilah in March 2019. In our first session, I stated my goal, that I wanted to quit smoking that day. I have been smoke-free since March 2019. Thank you. I, to this day, will stay in contact with her. Very compassionate, Very Professional. You’re fortunate, Central Valley, to have such a great Hypnotherapist!

    I have been through extreme grief. I was hurting badly. I needed help in dealing with my emotions. My body was falling apart. I wasn’t sleeping or eating properly. I’ve known Ilah for a while. When I reached out for help, she was amazing. I’ve been a couple of times planning on going more; she helped me get my emotions into perspective, and she helped me realize I’m going to be ok.

    Ilah is AMAZING! Coming in with an emotional battle within myself that seemed to be consuming me was cleared through Ilah’s expertise. It was a wonderful new experience that, in all honesty, changed my life for the better. She is always courteous and takes her time to know me, help me, and TEACH ME. To say that a huge load was taken off my shoulders from the burden and battle I was carrying would be an understatement. Absolutely life-changing!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get stuck in Hypnosis? Is it Magic? Does it control me? Will you have me do stupid things?
The answer is no to all of those questions. You will never do in Hypnosis that you wouldn't do out of it. It isn't some "woo - woo" parlor trick and I do not do stage entertainment. Those hypnotists are seeking for a certain kind of participant who will go into a state of trance easily. I do not look for clients in this matter. Clients seek me out and I am able to help them because they are looking to make a change.
