Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
(EMDR)
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a specialized therapy that helps you move forward from overwhelming or traumatic experiences. When painful memories feel “stuck,” EMDR uses gentle techniques—like guided eye movements, tapping, or sounds—to help your brain naturally process these events. Over time, this can ease emotional distress, freeing you from feeling trapped in the past.
What sets EMDR apart is its structured, step-by-step approach. First, you and your therapist identify which memories are causing distress. Then, in a safe, supportive environment, you work through these memories without needing to talk about them in great detail. This gives your mind space to do the healing work, helping you regain a sense of calm, confidence, and control.
As you progress, EMDR also focuses on strengthening your ability to handle future challenges. The overall goal isn’t just relief from distress—it’s feeling more empowered, more resilient, and more prepared to create the life you want moving forward.
