EMDR

EMDR  (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an internationally  approved treatment for all kinds of psychological trauma arising from  accidents, abuse, assaults, natural disasters, and bereavements, to  attachment traumas that may be experienced in childhood.

EMDR  involves talking and bilateral stimulation, typically eye movements.  The aim is to reduce distress and negative beliefs associated with past  overwhelming or traumatic experiences that are having a significant  impact on our mental health.
