EMDR Therapy

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a specialized form of psychotherapy designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. During EMDR sessions, clients briefly recall distressing memories while simultaneously focusing on external stimuli, such as eye movements, bilateral tapping, or alternating sounds, guided by our trained therapists.

​

This dual attention process helps to stimulate the brain's natural ability to process and integrate traumatic memories in a safe and controlled manner. As a result, clients often experience a reduction in the intensity of their emotional and physiological reactions to the traumatic memories.

​

EMDR therapy aims to reprocess traumatic memories, alleviate associated symptoms like anxiety and flashbacks, and promote adaptive coping mechanisms and a sense of resolution. It is an evidence-based approach recommended by various mental health organizations for the treatment of trauma-related disorders and has been shown to be effective in facilitating healing and recovery.
