What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from symptoms and emotional distress that result from disturbing life experiences. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma by allowing a person to process traumatic memories so that they no longer cause discomfort. Also, through the process of EMDR, a client doesn’t simply forget that the traumas occurred but can dissolve the negative and intense emotions and thoughts associated with the memory and heal more productively and healthily.
