What is EMDR Therapy?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR) is a powerful evidence-based trauma treatment. It is a psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders. Through EMDR therapy, patients are able to reprocess traumatic information until it is no longer psychologically disruptive, allowing the brain to resume its natural healing process. EMDR therapy can often be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies.
