FAQs about EMDR Therapy

  • EMDR therapy involves recalling distressing memories while simultaneously engaging in guided bilateral stimulation (e.g., eye movements, taps) to help reprocess the memory, reducing its emotional charge and integrating it into a more adaptive perspective.

  • During an EMDR session, you'll discuss your traumatic memories and emotions while following the therapist's guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation. This process helps you process and reframe these memories, allowing you to feel and release emotions somatically, which supports deeper healing and integration.

  • The timeline for seeing results with EMDR therapy can vary. Some individuals may experience relief after a few sessions, while others might require more time to process complex trauma and achieve significant change.

  • While EMDR therapy is considered effective, some individuals may experience temporary increases in emotional distress or vivid memories as they work through trauma. These reactions are brief and are a normal part of the healing process.

  • Yes, EMDR therapy can be used in conjunction with other therapeutic approaches and treatments. I will work with you to integrate EMDR with any existing treatment plans to ensure comprehensive care.
