EMDR therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured, evidence-based therapy designed to help people heal from trauma and distressing life experiences. It works through bilateral stimulation—such as guided eye movements, tapping, or alternating sounds—while the client recalls difficult memories. This process helps the brain reprocess and integrate traumatic memories, so they no longer trigger intense emotional distress. EMDR follows a clear protocol that ensures safety and supports healing in an efficient and respectful way.
