Understanding EMDR Therapy

EMDR is a unique and evidence-based trauma therapy. It was initially developed in the late 1980s by psychologist Francine Shapiro. It has since gained widespread recognition as an effective treatment for a variety of mental health concerns.

This therapy uses powerful integrative techniques surrounding cognitive reprocessing, emotional processing, and mind-body healing. The process involves stimulating rapid eye movements. It can also apply other forms of bilateral stimulation. All the approaches help people access and process traumatic memories in a safe and controlled environment.
