What is EMDR?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured approach originally developed to help people process traumatic experiences.
Today, it is used to treat a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, and distress linked to painful life events.
Rather than talking in detail about the issue, EMDR helps the brain reprocess difficult memories in a way that reduces their emotional charge, allowing you to move forward with more clarity and calm.
It is an evidence-based method recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) and widely used around the world.

How does it work?
During EMDR sessions, you’ll be guided to briefly recall a distressing memory while following a set of bilateral stimulations (such as side-to-side eye movements or tapping). This helps your brain process the memory in a more adaptive way, similar to how it naturally processes experiences during sleep (especially REM sleep).
Over time, the memory becomes less emotionally intense and feels more distant or neutral, while the beliefs and emotions associated with it can shift in a healthier direction.
You don’t forget what happened — but it stops feeling as overwhelming or "stuck."
