What is EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing EMDR Therapy

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy, commonly known as EMDR, is a mental health therapy method. EMDR treats mental health conditions that happen because of memories from traumatic events in your past. It’s best known for its role in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but its use is expanding to include treatment of many other conditions.

What is EMDR Therapy?

EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to focus briefly on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.

01

EMDR Help PTSD

EMDR involves recalling traumatic memories while moving the eyes from side to side, following the therapist's finger or a light. This is thought to reduce the emotional intensity and distress associated with the memories, and to help the brain process them in a more adaptive way.

02

EMDR & depression

EMDR can help people with depression by processing negative beliefs, emotions, and body sensations that are linked to their past experiences.

01

Help with addiction?

Some studies have also found that EMDR therapy can improve outcomes for people with specific addictions, such as alcohol, gambling, internet, sex, opioids, and tobacco.
