During EMDR therapy I will support you to work through the eight phases of EMDR therapy, giving attention to a negative image, core belief, and bodily feeling related to this memory, and then to a positive belief that would indicate the issue was resolved. Over a period of 60-90 minute sessions the specific memory and related memory networks will be processed using this information and bilateral stimulation.
EMDR therapy does NOT include extended exposure to the distressing memory, detailed descriptions of the trauma, challenging of dysfunctional beliefs or homework assignments.
