EMDR

 Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing 

EMDR or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is an integrative, client-centered therapy that treats problems of daily living stemming from disturbing life experiences that continue to have a negative impact on a person.

It works by helping an individual process thoughts and feelings associated with traumatic experiences in order to gain a more balanced perspective.

During an EMDR sessions, the client will focus on various memories while simultaneously engaging in an alternating left-right movement (bilateral stimulation), administered by your therapist.

In EMDR therapy you can expect to explore your emotions and responses with guidance from myself as well as benefit from increased insight into how these issues influence current behaviors. These positive changes can lead to improved self-confidence and better life functioning overall.

There is strong evidence supporting its use in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder, and it has also been found to be an effective treatment approach for a wide range of diagnoses in a variety of contexts and treatment settings with diverse populations.
