EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based approach that can bring profound change to individuals who have experienced trauma or distressing life events.

What is EMDR?

EMDR is a specialised therapy approach that integrates elements of cognitive processing, bilateral stimulation, and somatic awareness. It was developed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences and reduce the impact of distressing memories, allowing for a more adaptive and integrated way of functioning.

How does EMDR work?

During an EMDR session, we will guide you through a structured process that involves bilateral stimulation, such as eye movements, auditory tones, or tactile sensations. This bilateral stimulation helps facilitate the reprocessing of distressing memories and enables the brain to form new connections and associations, leading to resolution and healing.

The Benefits of EMDR:

EMDR has been widely recognized for its effectiveness in addressing a range of concerns, including:

• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

• Anxiety and panic disorders

• Phobias and fears

• Traumatic grief and loss

• Childhood trauma and abuse

• Disturbing memories and intrusive thoughts

• Performance anxiety

• Relationship difficulties stemming from past experiences

Our psychologists trained in EMDR have undergone specialised training and are dedicated to creating a safe and supportive environment. We approach EMDR therapy with compassion, sensitivity, and an understanding of trauma's complex impacts.
