EMDR
 
Eye Movement Desenitization and Reprocessing is a comprehensive, integrative psychotherapy approach.
 
During treatment various procedures and protocols are used to address the entire clinical picture.  One of the procedures elements is "dual stimulation" using bilateral eye movements, tones, or taps.  During this time, clients generally experience the emergence of insight, changes in memories, or new associations.
 
EMDR seeks to create an adaptive resolution to traumatic experiences, thus allowing the emotional brain to resume normal affective regulation.  After EMDR processing, clients generally report that the emotional distress related to the memory has been eliminated, or greatly decreased, and that they have gained important cognitive insights.
