EMDR Specialist

As an EMDR specialist, you help people heal from trauma using a specific therapy called eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. In sessions, you guide clients to recall difficult memories while you lead them through side-to-side eye movements or other rhythmic cues, which helps the brain process painful experiences so they lose their grip. You treat people dealing with trauma, post-traumatic stress, anxiety, and more. Your days are spent in one-on-one sessions, listening closely, planning treatment, and keeping careful notes, usually in a private practice, clinic, or hospital.
