What is EMDR?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a patient-centered psychotherapeutic approach that allows stimulating the inherent healing mechanisms within the person themselves.
It is a faster and more effective approach than other conventional therapies, setting in motion a brain information processing system.
Effective treatment for:
- Phobias
- Panic attacks
- Traumatic death
- Grief
- Childhood traumatic incidents
- Accidents and natural disasters
Also to improve:
- Fear of public speaking
- Improvement of work performance
- Sports performance
- Artistic interpretations
The Therapeutic Process
The treatment depends on the patient's history. It can consist from EMDR for a simple trauma to more than a year for complex problems.
1. Identification
The patient and therapist identify a specific problem as the focus of treatment.
2. Selection
The most important and distressing aspects of the traumatic incident are selected.
3. Bilateral Stimulation
While the patient makes eye movements, other parts of the memory or associations come to mind.
4. Reprocessing
The traumatic event transforms into something functional and conflict-free.
Brain Reprocessing
In the same way that the brain processes REM sleep information, EMDR activates these natural mechanisms to heal emotional wounds.
