A new kind of trauma care
Relief from trauma, one quiet session at a time.
Traumalis is a digital, game-based protocol — adapted from EMDR and decades of imagery-competing-task research — that helps the mind settle the images trauma leaves behind. Delivered in your care setting, at your own pace.
Trauma lives in pictures. So does the way out.
Intrusive images — the flashbacks, the replays — are how trauma keeps its grip. Traumalis gently occupies the same mental space those images need, so they lose their hold. No reliving the worst moment out loud. No homework. Just twenty calm minutes at a screen, guided the whole way.
Why it’s different
- 01
Gentle by design
Built with people in distress in mind. Calm pacing, plain language, and an easy exit at every step — never clinical-cold, never overwhelming.
- 02
Grounded in evidence
The mechanism traces a clear line from the original Tetris flashback studies to modern randomized trials, adapted into a structured, repeatable protocol.
- 03
Made to fit your care
Patients access a session in-facility with a one-time code. No new hardware, no heavy onboarding — it slots into the care you already provide.
A session, start to finish
Calm, structured, and the same every time.
- 01
Orientation
A short, reassuring introduction explains what a session is and isn’t, so patients begin from a place of safety.
- 02
Settle in
Patients open a session on a laptop or desktop with a one-time access code — self-guided, around twenty minutes.
- 03
The protocol
A game-based, imagery-competing task gently occupies the mind’s visual workspace, where intrusive images take hold.
- 04
Reporting
Clinicians see participation and progress signals to inform care — without the patient reliving anything aloud.
What the evidence indicates
Real change — stated plainly, never as pressure.
Data gathered from real patient outcomes from the original clinician-led version of Traumalis.
Built on real research
A clear line from a 2009 lab finding to modern randomized trials.
Traumalis adapts a well-documented mechanism — occupying the mind’s visual workspace so intrusive images lose their grip — into a structured, repeatable protocol.

Real user, real outcome
This app has been transformative in my healing journey. After completing just one exercise, I noticed a remarkable shift. The traumatizing memories and emotions I had carried for so long were no longer present when I revisited them. The relief and peace of mind I now feel is invaluable. It truly feels like a burden lifted and it’s nothing short of life-changing.
How does this work?
Traumalis is a brief cognitive intervention that activates similar neural pathways as EMDR. It reduces distress related to a traumatic event by disrupting the memory of that event.
How is this different from EMDR?
This approach uses a puzzle game instead of bilateral stimulation (eye movements, tapping or sounds). It is brief, self-guided and no certification is needed to administer it.
Does this replace therapy?
No. Clinicians use it as a brief, solution-focused intervention to augment their therapeutic work.
What are the outcomes?
Trauma symptoms are reduced by 50% after one session. Symptoms of anxiety, depression and complex grief also improve. These results have been observed in both clinical settings and research studies.
Is this HIPAA-compliant?
Yes. Protected health information (PHI) about a patient is neither collected nor stored.
