EMDR

What is EMDR Therapy?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be an effective trauma therapy, a way to move past a stressful event. 

What is EMDR?

EMDR therapy involves recalling a stressful past event and “reprogramming” the memory in the light of a new, positive belief, using rapid eye movements to facilitate the process.

How EMDR therapy works

At the time of a traumatic event, the strong emotions you experience can interfere with your ability to completely process the event, and this one unpleasant moment becomes “frozen in time.” 


EMDR therapy appears to work by directly affecting the brain and “unfreezing” the traumatic memories, allowing you to resolve them.

Who can benefit from EMDR?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms. 


Also, individuals experiencing, mood disorders, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, and substance-use disorders.
