This is a therapy focused on alleviating symptoms and distress that result from traumatic or disturbing life experiences.
Sometimes there are blocks in the system of processing life experiences, and EMDR uses eye movements and related techniques to unblock the memories and allow them to be processed.
EMDR has a sound and growing evidence base for a variety of difficulties and is recommended by NICE and the World Health Organisation for treatment of post-trauma symptoms.
