Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) relies on a client's own rapid, rhythmic eye movements, and is founded on the belief that these eye movements can weaken the intensity of emotionally charged memories. EMDR is most often used to treat PTSD or other traumas, but is also sometimes used for panic attacks, eating disorders, addictions, and anxiety. EMDR sessions can last up to 90 minutes, and usually starts with a client rating their level of distress. A therapist then typically moves their fingers in front of your face (or sometimes toe tapping or musical tones), asking you to follow along with your eyes, while you recall a traumatic event and all the sensations that come with it. You will gradually be guided by the therapist to shift thoughts from the traumatic experience to a more comforting one. The goal of EMDR is to make disturbing memories less immobilizing. Think this approach might be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s EMDR specialists today.
My clients strive towards health and carry with them a set of strengths. Many are therapists themselves, young adults transitioning to independence, dealing with issues of identity and sexuality, or adults dealing with the longterm negative impacts of childhood or trauma. They come to relieve symptoms of pain, distress and self-defeating behaviors. Together we draw upon their strengths and endeavor to build even more. Ideally, therapy ends with increased joy, self awareness, and confidence.
