What happens during an EMDR Therapy Session?
Every EMDR therapy session is individual to the person as they work to overcome their emotional issues; but the process we take them through is the same. You will get help to identify specific traumatic memories or experiences, and our therapist will use stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or tones) to help reduce the intensity of the emotions and sensations associated with the memory or issue. Your therapist also helps you identify positive beliefs or emotions to replace the negative ones associated with the traumatic memory. When your EMDR therapy is complete, you will live with less emotion and pain and where this is linked to past events, recalling them will not be as traumatic for you as before.
How long does EMDR take to work?
EMDR therapy can take anywhere from 3 to 12 sessions to work. The number of sessions needed will vary depending on the severity of the trauma and the individual's response to treatment.
However, it is important to note that the benefits of EMDR therapy can be life-changing.
How much does EMDR Therapy cost?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) can take longer than other therapies because it involves a structured, multi-phase approach designed to address deeply embedded traumatic memories. Here are a few reasons why EMDR may take more time:
Comprehensive assessment: Before beginning treatment, a thorough evaluation of the client’s history and traumas is necessary to identify the memories causing distress.
Preparation phase: Clients are taught coping mechanisms and relaxation techniques to ensure emotional stability before processing begins.
Gradual processing: EMDR tackles one memory or issue at a time, often requiring multiple sessions to fully reprocess significant traumas.
Complex trauma: For individuals with multiple or prolonged traumatic experiences, more time is required to address each memory and its emotional impact.
Individual pace: EMDR respects each client’s unique processing speed, ensuring safety and emotional readiness before moving forward in therapy.
This thorough approach ensures deep, long-lasting healing, but it may extend the duration of treatment.

Want to get started with EMDR Therapy?
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach that helps individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. Here's how it works:
Targeting trauma: EMDR focuses on unresolved traumatic memories contributing to emotional distress.
Bilateral stimulation: The therapist uses eye movements, taps, or sounds to stimulate both sides of the brain while recalling the trauma.
Reprocessing: This process helps the brain reprocess the trauma, reducing the emotional intensity attached to the memory.
New perspectives: Over time, individuals begin to form healthier, more adaptive thoughts and beliefs about the traumatic event.
Healing and resolution: EMDR fosters emotional healing and reduces symptoms like anxiety and depression.
