Healing from Toxic Relationships: EMDR, and Somatic Therapy in Orlando, FL & Online Throughout Florida

Toxic relationships can leave deep emotional scars, making you feel trapped, depleted, and powerless. Whether the relationship was with a partner, family member, friend, or colleague, the effects can linger long after the interactions end.

At Growing Branches, we understand the complexities of toxic relationships, emotional abuse, and relational trauma. We offer specialized therapy, integrating:

✔ Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) for trauma healing

✔ Somatic Therapy to restore mind-body balance

✔ Expressive Arts Therapy for self-expression and empowerment

With in-person therapy in Orlando, FL and online therapy throughout Florida, we provide a safe, supportive space to help you reclaim your voice, heal from the past, and build healthier relationships.

Understanding Toxic Relationships

Toxic relationships are often marked by manipulation, control, criticism, gaslighting, and emotional abuse. They can lead to:

⚠ Low self-esteem and self-doubt

⚠ Anxiety, depression, and emotional exhaustion

⚠ Difficulty setting boundaries

⚠ A cycle of unhealthy relationships

Recognizing these patterns is the first step toward breaking free and reclaiming your emotional well-being.

EMDR Therapy: Healing Trauma & Releasing Negative Beliefs

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based approach to process and heal trauma. In the context of toxic relationships, EMDR helps to:

✔ Identify and reprocess painful memories

✔ Release self-limiting beliefs (“I’m not enough,” “I don’t deserve love”)

✔ Develop healthier relationship patterns

By addressing past wounds, EMDR empowers you to break free from toxic cycles and move forward with confidence.

Somatic Therapy: Reconnecting with Your Body

Toxic relationships don’t just affect the mind—they also take a toll on the body. Many people experience:

❌ Chronic tension, fatigue, or digestive issues

❌ Nervous system dysregulation (fight, flight, freeze, fawn response)

❌ Difficulty feeling safe or grounded

Somatic interventions such as mindfulness, breathwork, and body-centered therapy help release stored tension and restore a sense of calm, safety, and self-trust.

Expressive Arts Therapy: Finding Your Voice & Rebuilding Confidence

When words aren’t enough, creative expression can be a powerful tool for healing. Through painting, writing, movement, or music, Expressive Arts Therapy helps you:

🎨 Process emotions in a safe, non-verbal way

📝 Reclaim your voice and self-expression

🎶 Rediscover joy, creativity, and self-worth

By engaging in artistic exploration, you can release pent-up emotions and reconnect with your authentic self.

Embracing Self-Compassion & Healthy Boundaries

Healing from a toxic relationship isn’t just about leaving the past behind—it’s about building a future rooted in self-respect, self-care, and strong boundaries.

Our therapists will guide you in:

✔ Practicing self-compassion & self-care

✔ Recognizing and avoiding toxic patterns

✔ Establishing clear, healthy boundaries

✔ Developing fulfilling, respectful relationships

You deserve relationships built on trust, respect, and mutual care. Therapy can help you gain the confidence and clarity to create them.
