Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing
(EMDR)

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy that helps process and heal from traumatic or distressing experiences.

​

EMDR uses bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements or tapping, to activate the brain’s natural healing process. This allows the brain to reprocess stuck or distressing memories in a more adaptive way, reducing the emotional intensity and physical distress often associated with them.

​

EMDR is widely used to support clients experiencing:
• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
• Anxiety disorders and panic
• Depression and persistent negative thoughts
• Phobias and specific fears
• Low self-esteem and self-worth
• Body image concerns and eating disorders

 

Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn’t require you to talk in detail about the memory. Instead, it focuses on helping the brain “unstick” unprocessed experiences so they no longer cause disruption in daily life.

 

At Evolving Minds Counselling, EMDR is delivered in a safe, supportive, and structured environment. We tailor each session to your individual needs and pace, ensuring you feel grounded and in control throughout the process.
