EMDR Therapy

What Is EMDR Therapy?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps people recover from trauma, anxiety, and distressing life experiences. Through a structured approach involving bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping), EMDR allows the brain to reprocess painful memories so they no longer feel overwhelming or stuck.

Originally developed for PTSD, EMDR is now used to treat anxiety, depression, phobias, grief, and more.

How EMDR Can Help You Heal
