What Is An
EMDR Therapy Program?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an evidence-based therapeutic modality that uses dual attention stimulation of the brain, such as eye movements which are thought to mimic REM sleep, to reduce the intensity of disturbing thoughts.
Formulated in the 90s, EMDR has helped countless people overcome their anxiety, depression, and substance use disorders. An EMDR therapy program is based on the connection between the brain’s processing unit and rapid eye movements. It utilizes both the left and right sides of the brain, to replace traumatic memories or negative sensations with more positive ones.

How It Works
EMDR seems to allow the brain to process information from memories that feel stuck and distressing. The processing through EMDR can stop the person from reliving the images, sounds, and feelings associated with the memories. The person still has the memories and is not distressed by them in the same way.
