Maria Rheba Estante, LMFT, LPCC, is a Certified EMDR Therapist, EMDRIA Consultant-in-Training, multi-state licensed clinician, clinical supervisor, and adjunct lecturer dedicated to EMDR scholarship that supports EMDR-trained clinicians think more clearly about the moments when trauma reprocessing stalls.

As host of Target Memory, she explores the clinical terrain many trauma therapists encounter: perpetrator introjects, attachment wounds, religious trauma, complex PTSD, blocking beliefs, and the internal dynamics that can keep clients stuck despite high motivation with a therapist applying high-fidelity EMDR treatment.

Grounded in peer reviewed clinical research from EMDRIA. Ongoing EMDR trainings, and Peer Consultations, Target Memory translates advanced trauma concepts into practical, ethically grounded clinical reflections for EMDR therapists. Episodes are designed to help clinicians sharpen case conceptualization, recognize subtle treatment blocks, select interventions with greater clarity, and ethically approach complex trauma work with precision and compassion.

This podcast is for EMDR clinicians, trauma therapists, clinical supervisors, and mental health professionals who want to deepen their ability to respond thoughtfully with clinical rigor when standard reprocessing is at an impasse.
