EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured form of psychotherapy used by trained counselors to help individuals process traumatic or distressing memories. It involves having the client focus on upsetting memories while simultaneously engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements, taps, or sounds. This process helps reduce the emotional intensity and vividness of the memories, allowing the brain to reprocess them in a more adaptive and healthy way. EMDR is widely recognized for its effectiveness in treating trauma, anxiety, and other distressing experiences.
