The Basics
What is EMDR?
A structured psychotherapy that helps the brain reprocess difficult memories so they carry less emotional intensity.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured psychotherapy approach used to help people process and recover from distressing or traumatic experiences.
Through guided bilateral stimulation — typically eye movements — a trained clinician helps the brain reprocess difficult memories so they carry less emotional intensity.
EMDR is widely used for post-traumatic stress, anxiety, grief, and other trauma-related conditions, and is recognized by several international health bodies as an evidence-based treatment for PTSD.
- 01
A memory stays live
Distressing experiences can remain unprocessed — easily triggered, still carrying the original fear or shame.
- 02
Guided bilateral stimulation
A clinician guides brief attention to the memory alongside side-to-side eye movements, tapping, or sound.
- 03
The brain reprocesses
That bilateral rhythm appears to help the mind finish storing the memory, much like REM sleep.
- 04
The intensity eases
What happened can still be recalled — but it typically feels less raw, intrusive, or overwhelming.
Who It Helps

Other trauma-related conditions
A trauma-focused approach for distressing memories that still shape how a person feels and functions.
