Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Manon is an accredited EMDR therapist with EMDR Association of Australia (EMDRAA). Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is one of our core therapeutic approaches. EMDR is an effective psychotherapeutic method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms. EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages people to focus briefly on their traumatic memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.
