EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an integrative psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma. EMDR is a set of standardized protocols that incorporates elements from many different treatment approaches.
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation usually of the eyes to desensitize a person to a trauma they have experienced. Reprocessing the negative thoughts about themselves and moving the memory of the trauma into the long term memory, therefore, the memory becomes more manageable.
This can be effective not only in the treatment of PTSD but also phobias, and other issues which may have a single stimulus for further discussion about how this therapy may be effective for your needs please contact me.
