EMDR: The Breakthrough Therapy for Healing from Anxiety, Anger, Stress, Depression, PTSD & Emotional Trauma
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an interactive psychotherapy technique used to relieve psychological stress. It is an effective treatment for trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
During EMDR therapy sessions, you relive traumatic or triggering experiences in brief doses while the therapist directs your eye movements.
EMDR is thought to be effective because recalling distressing events is often less emotionally upsetting when your attention is diverted. This allows you to be exposed to the memories or thoughts without having a strong psychological response.
Over time, this technique is believed to lessen the impact that the memories or thoughts have on you.
People who are dealing with traumatic memories and those who have PTSD are thought to benefit the most from EMDR therapy.
It’s thought to be particularly effective for those who struggle to talk about their past experiences.
Although there is not sufficient research to prove its effectiveness in these areas, EMDR therapy is also being used to treat:
·depression
·anxiety
·panic attacks
·eating disorders
·addictions
If you’re struggling with unresolved trauma, and have tried other solutions with limited success, EMDR can be a fantastic alternative. A certified EMDR counselor can help you process difficult memories, so you can start living your life sooner.
