Find an EMDR Therapist

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy primarily used to treat trauma and PTSD. It uses bilateral stimulation — typically side-to-side eye movements — to help the brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their emotional charge.

What EMDR can help with

  • PTSD and trauma
  • Childhood abuse
  • Accident or assault
  • Phobias
  • Panic disorder
  • Grief
  • Performance anxiety

What to expect

EMDR follows a structured eight-phase protocol. After an initial assessment, your therapist will guide you through targeted memories while you follow their finger movements or other bilateral stimulation. Many people notice significant relief within 6–12 sessions.
