EMDR Therapy for Adults

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful therapeutic tool for treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other conditions. It is well-known for its effectiveness in helping clients who suffer from anxiety, distressing memories, or other traumatic events. Whether those traumas were large or small, EMDR quickly helps clients come to peace with what happened.

Research shows that guided eye movement seems to stimulate the natural healing process by liberating the neurochemical communication between the two hemispheres of the brain. This results in the trauma no longer containing the negative emotional charge that was initially associated with it. EMDR helps to reduce the emotional distress associated with negative life experiences, allowing you to move forward with a sense of calm and clarity.

Research on EMDR has been extensive and well-conducted; for Further Information about EMDR, please visit www.emdr.com
