EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation & Re-processing) is a therapeutic approach that has been recommended by NICE (National Institute for Clinical Excellence) for treatment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and has also proven effective in relieving other anxiety-related conditions and physical pain.
EMRD has been developed by an American clinical psychologist Dr Francine Shapiro in late 1980s. This therapy appears to directly impact on the brain's information processing function and helps to relieve the intense emotion of traumatic and distressing experiences. EMDR employs eye movements and also sometimes tapping on both sides of body.
I have completed the full three-part accredited EMDR training (including basic, intermediate and advanced), and offer EMDR treatment for trauma & PTSD, phobias, anxiety disorders and other issues.
