Mr. Matthew Danis, LCSW, EMDR Certified, Consultant in Training
(he/him)
About Me
As a licensed clinical social worker with extensive training in EMDR therapy, I offer professional therapy services to clients and consultation services to therapists seeking to deepen their EMDR practice.
Education & Experience
My academic foundation from New York University's Master of Social Work program, combined with psychoanalytic training through the Institute for Human Identity, allows me to bring a uniquely integrative perspective to EMDR implementation. My approach emphasizes the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for effective trauma processing, integrating both the technical precision of EMDR and the nuanced understanding of attachment and relational dynamics.
