EMDR

EMDR
(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

EMDR is a mental health treatment technique. This method involves moving your eyes a specific way while you process traumatic memories.

EMDR’s goal is to help you heal from trauma or other distressing life experiences.

Dozens of clinical trials since EMDR’s development show this technique is effective and can help a person faster than many other methods.

EMDR can help people with a wide range of mental health conditions.

EMDR therapy doesn’t require talking in detail about a distressing issue.

EMDR instead focuses on changing the emotions, thoughts or behaviors that result from a distressing experience (trauma).

This allows your brain to resume a natural healing process.

That reprocessing helps “repair” the mental injury from that trauma. Remembering what happened to you will no longer feel like reliving it, and the related feelings will be much more manageable.
