EMDR is effective in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as anxiety, depression, phobias, grief, and other challenges rooted in painful or unresolved experiences. By processing these memories, EMDR can bring a profound sense of relief and closure, helping you move forward with more peace and resilience.
In an EMDR session, we’ll begin by identifying memories or experiences that cause you distress. Using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, sounds, or taps), you’ll revisit these memories in a structured, supportive way. The brain’s natural healing process allows you to reframe and release the emotional hold these memories have on you. Throughout the session, I’ll guide you, ensuring you feel safe and supported as you process these experiences. EMDR often brings rapid relief, allowing many clients to feel a reduction in symptoms and distress within a few sessions.
