EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing)

EMDR – or Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing – allows for a memory to be ‘reconfigured’ by the client, and framed in a more positive, less judgemental way. It sounds complicated, but in its essence this is a psychotherapeutic treatment that reflects how memories are both processed and stored. Because of its ability to help individuals overcome traumatic memories, EMDR has found particular prominence in the treatment of conditions such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
