If past experiences are affecting your psychological wellbeing, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy could help you move forward. EMDR is designed to help you process distressing memories in a safe and supportive way.
EMDR is used for recovery rather than to get rid of painful memories. It helps your brain reprocess memories so they no longer have the same emotional intensity, allowing you to remember past events without feeling overwhelmed.
EMDR aims to reprocess trauma for a brighter future.
EMDR has a specific structure. During an EMDR session, your therapist will guide you through different stages, helping you understand your current challenges and how they have been shaped by past experiences.
EMDR works by recalling a distressing memory while using side-to-side eye movements or gentle tapping. Research suggests that this process helps the brain work through the memory in a way that reduces its emotional impact. Over time, these memories become easier to manage.
As therapy progresses, sessions will shift focus toward building emotional strength for the future. EMDR is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and has been shown to be highly effective in reducing symptoms of trauma and distress.
