Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach designed to help individuals process distressing memories and traumatic experiences. During EMDR sessions, clients recall specific memories while engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as following the therapist's hand movements or listening to alternating sounds or taps. This bilateral stimulation is believed to facilitate the brain's natural processing mechanisms, allowing traumatic memories to be reprocessed in a more adaptive manner. Through EMDR, individuals can experience a reduction in the emotional distress associated with traumatic memories, leading to improved mental well-being and a greater sense of resolution.
