What is EMDR?

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing

EMDR is a physiologically based holistic therapy method that reprocesses traumatic or disturbing memories, allowing new information to be stored harmoniously and reducing the person's sense of discomfort.

After Dr. Francine Shapiro published her study in 1989 (Journal of Traumatic Stress) showing that disturbing thoughts can be reduced with eye movements, it has been developed and continues to be applied.
