EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that helps the brain heal from traumatic or distressing memories. Using guided eye movements, sounds, or taps, EMDR helps process difficult experiences so they become less emotionally overwhelming. It is recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO).
How EMDR Works
Think of a physical wound that heals naturally. Sometimes painful memories get “stuck” and cannot heal on their own. EMDR helps the brain resume its natural healing process by reprocessing those memories. The memory remains, but it no longer triggers the same level of distress.
