EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is a proven neurologically based therapeutic technique first developed by psychologist Francine Shapiro several decades ago. It makes new connections in the brain about a traumatic event by using bilateral stimulation, a process similar to the brain’s Rapid Eye Movement cycle (REM). In using the traumatic event coupled with BLS, clients can reprocess the event and all its associations, decreasing the disturbance and integrating it into the brain.
