EMDR therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a structured therapy that helps the brain process distressing memories, so they feel less present and less charged.
Recommended for PTSD by the American Psychological Association and the World Health Organization.

Questions
About EMDR
Do I have to describe the memory in detail?
No. EMDR does not require you to talk through every detail. You stay in control of what you share.
How many sessions will I need?
It depends on your history and goals. Your clinician will give you an estimate after the assessment.
Can EMDR be done online?
Yes. Online EMDR uses on-screen movement or self-tapping and follows the same structure.
