Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing

Alleviate the Distress of Traumatic Memories


Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is a behavioral health therapy developed in the late 1980‘s by Dr. Francine Shapiro to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. During traumatic events, the brain’s natural healing mechanism can be disrupted so that “processing through” the traumatic event can not occur.  This may result in episodes of reliving the event that may appear immediately following the event, or even years later.  Through the replication of the eye movements that occur during REM sleep, EMDR helps to reengage the brain’s healing potential so that the sights, sounds, and feelings associated with the traumatic event are no longer re-experienced.   After the reprocessing of the traumatic event is completed, it is possible for the event to be seen in a new and less distressing manner.  The number of EMDR sessions necessary for reprocessing completion is dependent on the nature and the severity of the individual’s traumatic experiences.
