  1. Know Everything About EMDR Therapy

  2. What is EMDR Therapy? Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders. During EMDR Therapy sessions, you relive traumatic or triggering experiences in brief doses while the therapist directs your eye movements. Over time, this technique is believed to lessen the impact that the memories or thoughts have on you.

  3. Benefits of EMDR therapy? • People who are dealing with traumatic memories and those who have PTSD are thought to benefit the most from EMDR therapy. • Although there is not sufficient research to prove its effectiveness in these areas, EMDR therapy is also being used to treat: • Depression • Anxiety • Panic Attacks • Eating Disorders • Addictions 80% Text YourContent Here Get a modern PowerPoint Presentation that is beautifully designed.

  4. How does EMDR therapy affect the brain? Our brains have a natural way to recover from traumatic memories and events. This process involves communication between the amygdale, the hippocampus, and the prefrontal cortex which analyzes and controls behaviour and emotion. While many times traumatic experiences can be managed and resolved spontaneously, they may not be processed without help. EMDR therapy helps the brain process these memories, and allows normal healing to resume. The experience is still remembered, but the fight, flight, or freeze response from the original event is resolved.

  5. How Effective is EMDR therapy? 80% Multiple independent and controlled studies have shown that EMDR therapy is an effective treatment for PTSD.  Study found that EMDR therapy helped 77 percent of the individuals with psychotic disorder and PTSD. It found that their hallucinations, delusions, anxiety, and depression symptoms were significantly improved after treatment. The study also found that symptoms were not exacerbated during treatment. Several small studies have also found evidence that EMDR therapy is not only effective in the short term, but that its effects can be maintained long term.

  6. How does EMDR therapy work? Phase 1: History and treatment planning Phase 2: Preparation Phases 4: Treatment Phase 3: Assessment Your therapist will first review your history and decide where you are in the treatment process. This evaluation phase also includes talking about your trauma and identifying potential traumatic memories to treat specifically. Your therapist will then help you learn several different ways to cope with the emotional or psychological stress you’re experiencing. Stress management techniques such as deep breathing and mindfulness may be used. Your therapist will then begin using EMDR therapy techniques to treat your targeted memories. During these sessions, you will be asked to focus on a negative thought, memory, or image. During the third phase of EMDR treatment, your therapist will identify the specific memories that will be targeted and all the associated components (such as the physical sensations that are stimulated when you concentrate on an event) for each target memory.
