EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

EMDR is a highly effective therapy for treating trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). By targeting eye movements during therapy sessions, EMDR helps reprocess and integrate distressing memories, making them less overwhelming and restoring emotional balance. This innovative method is based on the idea that the brain’s natural information processing ability can be harnessed to overcome traumatic events. During therapy, patients perform specific eye movements, allowing them to actively guide their thoughts and feelings, resulting in positive changes in their thinking and behavior.
