EMDR Intensives for Black Women Recovering from Burnout + Toxic Jobs

Because holding it all together shouldn’t cost you your health. Let’s break the cycle and get you free.

(Without spending years in therapy or trying to "push through" burnout that’s really about survival.)

This is sacred space for the Strong Black Woman ready to put the cape down.

Let me guess—you’ve said this to yourself more than once:

  • “I can’t keep doing this.”

  • “This job is breaking me.”

  • “I’m tired of being the one who holds everything and everyone.”

  • “It’s not just stress. It’s soul-deep exhaustion.”

  • “I used to love what I do. Now I just feel numb.”

    You’ve outgrown survival—but your nervous system hasn’t caught up.

    This isn’t about job stress. This is about unhealed trauma, inherited pressure, and the internalized belief that rest must be earned.

    You don’t need another self-care checklist. You need a somatic reset.

Hi, I’m Dr. Cecily Moore.

I help ambitious, world-saving Black women heal from burnout, release the survival-based Strong Black Woman narrative, and return to themselves—fully and unapologetically.

Through EMDR intensives, I guide you to process trauma stored in your body, unlearn toxic conditioning, and reset your nervous system for safety, softness, and sovereignty.

What if…

  • You didn’t freeze up every time your boss sent you an email?

  • You no longer questioned your worth when you needed rest?

  • You remembered who you were before your job tried to shape you?

  • You finally stopped feeling guilty for choosing yourself?

  • You deserve a life that doesn’t ask you to abandon yourself to be successful.

You’ve done therapy. You’ve journaled. You’ve tried bubble baths and PTO.

But the tension is still in your body, because this is deeper than stress—it’s trauma dressed up as work ethic.

This intensive is a place to stop performing strength, and start building safety.

You don’t have to be in therapy forever. You just need the right space, the right tools, and the right guide.

CLIENT RESULTS

“I had no idea how much of my burnout was tied to past trauma. I finally feel clear.”

“This was the first time I felt safe enough to rest—and not feel like I’d fall apart.”

“I walked in exhausted and left with the tools to not just recover—but rebuild.”

This is not business-as-usual therapy.

This is a somatic, healing intensive that honors your body, your story, and your nervous system.

You don’t have to choose between healing and ambition. You can have both—without the burnout.

“Do I need to quit my job to benefit from this?”

Not at all. This is about reclaiming your internal authority—even in environments that feel unsafe or out of alignment.

“Will I be fixed after one weekend?”

Healing isn’t linear, but EMDR intensives help accelerate your recovery. You’ll walk away with tangible relief, insight, and a regulated nervous system.

“What if I’ve never done EMDR before?”

No problem. We’ll do a full resourcing session beforehand to prepare your body and brain for the work.
