What is EMDR Therapy?
​
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based psychotherapy for treating emotional distress linked to trauma and adverse life events. Developed by Francine Shapiro, EMDR uses a structured eight-phase protocol involving bilateral stimulation - typically guided eye movements or taps - while the client recalls distressing memories. This process helps the brain safely reprocess traumatic experiences, reducing the intensity of associated negative emotions. EMDR is recognized for effectiveness in PTSD but can also help with anxiety, depression, and phobias.
