EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitising Reprocessing) is a clinically proven effective therapy that uses bilateral stimulation (rapid eye movements) to enable processing of the memory / experience. It is a practice that is particularly effective for treating trauma, P.T.S.D (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), anxiety, depression, bereavement and phobias. Bilateral stimulation can also take place by the person tapping a part of their body such as their knees or shoulders. EMDR appears to mimic what the brain does naturally during dreams and the rapid eye movement (REM) phase of sleep. EMDR can be thought of as an essentially natural therapy, which assists the brain in working through distressing material. EMDR therapy can be practiced face to face or online.
