EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach designed to facilitate healing from trauma and other complex life challenges. Recognised as the gold standard for treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), EMDR’s efficacy is supported by a growing body of peer-reviewed research across a multitude of psychological conditions.
Effective Uses of EMDR Therapy:
EMDR has been found to be effective across many areas, including:
- Anxiety, panic attacks, and phobias
- Chronic Illness and medical issues
- Depression and bipolar disorders
- Dissociative disorders
- Eating disorders
- Grief and loss
- Pain
- Performance anxiety
- Personality disorders
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other trauma and stress related issues
- Sexual assault
- Sleep disturbance
- Substance abuse and addiction
- Violence and abuse
Benefits of EMDR Therapy:
One of the advantages of EMDR therapy is that, unlike some other therapy approaches, it does not require you to talk in detail about the distressing issue. EMDR enables the brain to access its natural healing process rather than focusing on changing the emotions, thoughts, or behaviours resulting from the distressing issue. For many clients, EMDR therapy can be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies. However, they usually require 60 to 90-minute sessions instead of the usual 55 minutes.
