How Does EMDR Work? A Guide to Healing Trauma and Emotional Distress
Stuck carrying emotional baggage from the past? EMDR therapy can help! It's a therapy technique targeting disturbing memories. Imagine your brain filing memories.

During sessions, you focus on the memory while experiencing bilateral stimulation (eye movements, tapping). This helps your brain process the memory and reduce its emotional hold on you. EMDR is effective for PTSD, anxiety, depression, and more!
