This approach uses guided eye movements to help the brain process and reframe painful memories, reducing their emotional impact. EMDR is recognized for its effectiveness in treating PTSD, anxiety, and related conditions, supporting lasting emotional healing.

Together, you’ll identify specific challenges and set clear goals for your treatment. This collaborative process ensures your therapy is personalized and that you feel comfortable moving forward.

In your second session, you and your therapist will develop a tailored treatment plan based on your unique needs. This includes identifying target memories and discussing coping strategies to use during and between sessions. The focus is on building trust and preparing you for the EMDR process.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based psychotherapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories using bilateral stimulation, typically eye movements. It is widely recognized as a first-line treatment for trauma and PTSD.
A typical course of EMDR ranges from 6 to 12 sessions for single-incident trauma, with more complex presentations sometimes requiring 20 or more sessions. Each session is usually 60 to 90 minutes.
Yes. While EMDR was developed for PTSD, research and clinical experience support its use for anxiety, panic, depression, phobias, and grief, particularly when these are rooted in unresolved memories.
Less than in traditional talk therapy. EMDR focuses on processing the emotional and physical responses tied to a memory rather than narrating the event in detail.
