What is EMDR?
EMDR is a well-established and evidence-based psychotherapeutic approach that has been found effective in treating trauma-related symptoms. It is widely used for a variety of conditions beyond PTSD, including anxiety, depression, and other emotional difficulties stemming from distressing life experiences. If you are considering EMDR therapy, it is important to consult with a licensed and trained EMDR therapist who can provide personalized guidance and support.

EMDR involves a structured eight-phase process in which the therapist helps the client process distressing memories by using bilateral stimulation, typically through guided eye movements. The goal is to help the individual reprocess these memories, reducing their emotional charge and enabling more adaptive and less distressing beliefs to emerge.
