What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR therapy is a treatment that helps people process traumatic memories in a new way. During therapy, the person recalls the memory while doing something like eye movements or tapping. This helps reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. EMDR therapy is often used with other therapies and can be very effective for those who have experienced trauma.
