EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing. EMDR can be used to treat PTSD and can also help with a range of other mental health problems. EMDR can be challenging but is a powerful therapy that helps people to recover from problems triggered by traumatic events in their lives. EMDR stops difficult memories causing so much distress by helping the brain to reprocess memories properly.
The therapist will conduct a thorough assessment of presenting difficulties to ensure that EMDR is the most appropriate treatment intervention for the client, along with consideration of the client's readiness for treatment.
