EMDR Therapy
(Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
EMDR Therapy uses eye movements, or other forms of dual attention stimulation, to help reduce the emotional intensity—or “emotional charge”—associated with distressing experiences.
Sometimes, painful or overwhelming experiences can become “stuck” in the brain, continuing to trigger negative thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, long after the event has passed.
EMDR therapy helps the brain process and integrate these distressing experiences so they no longer feel as emotionally overwhelming. By reducing these automatic stress responses, EMDR can help clients experience greater relief, emotional balance, and a renewed sense of well-being.
