Therapy approaches
EMDR therapy online
EMDR stands for eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing. It is a structured therapy, recommended in international guidelines for post-traumatic stress, that helps the brain process memories that have stayed raw.
How it works
While you hold a memory in mind, your therapist guides you through sets of side-to-side stimulation, such as following a moving point on the screen or tapping. Over time the memory tends to lose its charge and feel like something that is over.
Who it suits
People troubled by specific memories. It needs a private space and a stable connection, and your therapist will check that it is right for you before starting.
What sessions look like
- Preparation first: history, goals and skills for staying steady
- Processing one target memory at a time, at your pace
- You do not have to describe everything in detail
- Can be done by video with a therapist trained in online EMDR
