Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing

​​EMDR Therapy I What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a gentle, evidence-based therapy that helps people process distressing or overwhelming experiences. It supports the brain's natural ability to reprocess memories so they become less emotionally overwhelming, allowing many people to experience greater emotional balance and resilience.

​

During EMDR, bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, auditory tones or hand-held tappers) is used while working through distressing memories in a safe and structured way. Therapy always progresses at a pace that feels manageable, with time spent building coping skills and ensuring you feel supported throughout the process.

​

For EMDR, 90-minute appointments are often recommended to allow time for preparation, processing and grounding before the session concludes. One-hour sessions are also available if preferred.
