For emdr, the specific issue of phases is best understood in context. A useful starting point is to notice patterns rather than judging yourself for having them. Consider the situations in which the concern appears, changes in mood or behavior, sleep and energy, and the strategies you already use. Keeping brief notes can help you describe the pattern clearly to a mental health professional. Individual experiences can vary, so personalized guidance may be appropriate.
