EMDR is an evidence-based psychotherapy for PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress
Disorder). In addition, there are documented successful outcomes for other
mental health issues and somatic symptoms. EMDR is based on the idea that
negative thoughts, feelings and behaviours are the result of unprocessed
memories. Treatment targets experience’s, current triggers and future
challenges that are causing distress with bilateral stimulation that is most
commonly in the form of repeated eye movements. This allows the brain to
process the unprocessed distressing memory and integrate adaptive
information into the memory, so it no longer is triggering the sufferer.
