Are You Looking for Support with EMDR?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a psychotherapy technique that helps people heal from trauma and other distressing experiences.

How it works:

During EMDR, patients recall a traumatic memory and focus on it while simultaneously following a therapist's finger moving back and forth across their field of vision.

EMDR can help with a variety of conditions, including:

  • PTSD

  • Panic attacks

  • Eating disorders

  • Addictions

  • Anxiety
