Why choose EMDR therapy?
- Treatment is focused on the symptoms and conducted in sessions.
- EMDR has comparable results to those of other trauma treatments, such as exposure therapy, but over a much shorter timeframe.
- Research over several decades consistently shows that EMDR therapy can produce rapid and meaningful reductions in PTSD symptoms. Many clients — particularly those with single-incident trauma — experience significant improvement within just a few sessions, often without the need for therapeutic homework.
- Better tolerated by clients than exposure therapy.
- Clients do not have to talk in detail about their trauma.
