EMDR - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
EMDR helps
to process traumatic and stressful experiences.
Bilateral stimulation (eye movement)
support the brain reprocessing and
integrate harmful events.
When does EMDR help?
EMDR, originating from trauma therapy, is widely recognized as a guideline treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in various European countries and endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO). It effectively processes not only trauma-related disorders but also other stressful situations, enabling constructive coping strategies. While initially developed for trauma-related issues, EMDR has also proven beneficial in coaching and consulting contexts.
Areas of application encompass:
- Procrastination
- Fear of failure
- Overcoming setbacks
- Managing aggressive behaviour
- building self-confidence
How does EMDR work?
EMDR treatment can be integrated into a more complex therapy process or begins with a comprehensive assessment and the activation of personal resources before delving into trauma resolution. The procedure involves alternating stimulation of the brain's right and left hemispheres, commonly through techniques such as eye movements or auditive stimulation. This method allows for systematically processing traumatic experiences, leading to a renewed sense of self.
