Your questions, answered
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR uses bilateral stimulation with structured protocols to help the brain reprocess distressing memories and reduce symptoms. Treatment follows phases: history, stabilization, target selection, reprocessing, and installation. Many people notice reduced reactivity and improved function after a course of sessions. EMDR is commonly used within broader Trauma & PTSD therapists work.
Is EMDR right for me?
EMDR can help with trauma, anxiety, and grief when adequate stabilization is in place. Your clinician will assess readiness and supports. If grief or panic is central, Grief counselling counselling or Anxiety therapists counselling may be sequenced alongside preparation.
How long does EMDR take?
Course length varies with history and goals. Some targets resolve in a few sessions; complex trauma needs longer timelines with regular progress reviews.
