About The Cairn Center for EMDR

The name Cairn reflects an ancient practice: stacks of stones placed along a path to guide travelers through difficult terrain. In the same spirit, the Cairn Center exists to help people find their way through the challenging landscapes of trauma, grief, and life transition — one steady step at a time.

The Cairn Center’s mission is to help you find your way, to restore balance, to offer guidance and direction in a respectful, safe place. Are you feeling lost? Out of balance? Stuck? Are you recovering from a terrifying event, an accident or sudden illness? Are you grieving, confused about the conflicting feelings, stuck on what you wished had been different? You have come to the right place.

Ultimately, the Cairn Center’s mission is to offer a safe, calm space for healing, growing, and learning so that you may emerge with a sense of empowerment and reconnection.

About the Founder

Colleen Slowey-Morelli, LICSW, is the founder of The Cairn Center for EMDR, Inc, a trauma-focused therapy practice dedicated to helping individuals move through the effects of trauma and toward lasting healing.

Colleen founded the Cairn Center during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, a time when many individuals and communities were experiencing profound uncertainty, isolation, and emotional strain. In the midst of that collective upheaval, the need for available trauma-informed care became even more apparent. The Cairn Center was created to offer a steady place for healing — a place where people could safely process difficult experiences and reconnect with their resilience.

As a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and EMDRIA-approved EMDR therapist and consultant, Colleen specializes in helping individuals process trauma, complex trauma (CPTSD), anxiety, and complicated grief. Her work integrates EMDR therapy with parts-oriented approaches and a strong focus on nervous system regulation.

Colleen is also committed to supporting the next generation of trauma therapists. Through consultation and training, she mentors clinicians seeking EMDR certification and deeper skill in trauma-informed care.
