Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR)-50 min.
-
EMDR, which stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a therapeutic approach that is primarily used to treat individuals who have experienced traumatic events or distressing life experiences.
-
EMDR aims to alleviate symptoms associated with traumatic experiences by helping individuals process and integrate their traumatic memories.
-
EMDR has been found to be particularly effective in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), although research suggests it may also be beneficial for individuals with other anxiety disorders, phobias, depression, and certain addictive behaviors.
-
During an EMDR session, the therapist guides the individual in recalling traumatic memories while simultaneously engaging in bilateral stimulation, which can be achieved through eye movements, tapping, or auditory cues.
-
The underlying theory behind EMDR suggests that traumatic memories and associated emotions become "stuck" in the brain's information processing system. This can result in distressing symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares, anxiety, and avoidance behaviors. By stimulating bilateral brain activity through the use of external stimuli, EMDR aims to facilitate the reprocessing and integration of traumatic memories into more adaptive and less distressing ones.
