EMDR Psychologist

An EMDR psychologist helps people process traumatic memories using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a structured therapy that uses bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements or tapping, while a client recalls distressing experiences. Sessions begin with history taking and building coping skills, then move through carefully paced phases of processing and reevaluation. Clients may be dealing with PTSD, accidents, loss, abuse, or other difficult events. You usually work in private practice, group practices, hospitals, or community mental health settings.
