What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a well-established therapy that helps people process and heal from distressing memories or experiences, especially those related to trauma. Using guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain process difficult memories so they feel less intense and overwhelming.

​

Through this process, you can reframe negative beliefs and emotions associated with past experiences, seeing them with greater clarity and less distress. Over time, EMDR can help improve emotional regulation, reduce anxiety, and support healthier responses to past events. While it is particularly effective for trauma-related conditions such as PTSD, it can also be helpful for anxiety, depression, and other emotional challenges.
