Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is a revolutionary type of psychotherapy, that has fast grown in popularity, particularly for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
However, it isn’t only trauma that is being helped with EMDR. Using your own rapid, rhythmic eye movements it becomes possible to dampen the power of emotionally charged memories of past traumatic events.
Other anxiety provoking issues can be helped, such as panic attacks, eating disorders, addictions and other stressful and uncomfortable situations like public speaking or dental procedures, to name but a few.
Many EMDR therapists are now working with clients both in-person and online. Using the incredibly effective Bilateral Base platform for online EMDR sessions means you can access the power of EMDR from wherever you are in the world, tapping into the multi-sensory bilateral stimulation that Bilateral Base offers.
