Why EMDR Therapy?

There are many people who come to treatment and say that therapists before have just listened and reflected what they say. They feel frustrated because a friend could do that, and they don’t see real change in their life. People want real solutions and healing. EMDR therapy provides just that.

EMDR therapy does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or homework between sessions. EMDR supports the brain to resume its natural healing process. EMDR therapy is designed to process traumatic memories in the brain, so the person is informed by these memories but not controlled by them. Part of the therapy includes alternating eye movements, sounds, or taps. For many clients, EMDR therapy can be completed in fewer sessions than other psychotherapies.
