So, you are wondering- what is EMDR therapy?
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR therapy stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. The EMDR approach recognizes that your present-day issues and struggles are caused by past traumatic or upsetting experiences.
When you experience a traumatic or upsetting event, these memories are not stored properly in the brain. As a result, trauma memories are easily triggered, leading them to replay and cause distress over and again.
EMDR helps to process traumatic memories and get them unstuck.
How does EMDR help process traumatic memories?
EMDR utilizes bilateral stimulation (BLS) that helps enhance memory processing. In other words, back and forth movement helps the brain process stuck traumatic memories. As a result , though you will still remember the event, you will no longer experience the old emotions or sensations from the traumatic event in the present.
Therefore, You will no longer be controlled by the past.
Will EMDR therapy re-traumatize me?
Being hesitant to try EMDR is normal. Many are hesitant to try EMDR for fear of revisiting their trauma. In addition, hesitancy can come from a disbeleif that healing is possible.
EMDR therapy works at a pace that is right for you. Therefore, you will not be pushed or forced into reprocessing.
EMDR involves preparation work before going into the reprocessing phase. Therefore, when you are ready to process traumatic memories, though it will be difficult, you will feel empowered and equipped to do so.
What else does EMDR therapy entail?
- An individualized treatment plan specifically tailored for you.
- Working at your pace to explore the root of your symptoms
- Gaining knowledge and understanding of how trauma has impacted you.
- Learning tools and skills to cope with anxiety, stress, and other problematic symptoms

Does online EMDR therapy in Colorado and Florida work?
Yes! Online EMDR therapy works. Honestly, this shocked me. Providing online EMDR therapy has been just as successful as in-person.
How does the Bilateral Movement work for EMDR online?
Great question. There are three methods of BLS for online EMDR. The three methods include self-tapping, headphones-hearing a beep in left ear then right, and eye movements- watching a ball go back and forth on the computer screen. The latter two are accessed by a website your therapist shares with you.
