Therapy
EMDR Therapy
Trauma-Focused Therapy
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (eye movements, taps, or sounds) while recalling distressing memories. This helps the brain reprocess trauma so it feels less overwhelming. You stay in control; the therapist guides pacing and ensures you feel resourced.
Benefits
- Reduce PTSD flashbacks and nightmares
- Process single‑incident or complex trauma
What to Expect
After preparation and resourcing, the therapist helps you target a memory while you track bilateral stimulation. You notice what arises, pause, and repeat until distress lowers. Sessions end with grounding.
Duration: 6–12 sessions for single trauma; longer for complex histories
Good For
PTSD · Trauma · Phobias
Common Questions
Will I relive the trauma?
No. You stay present with the therapist. You can pause or stop anytime.
