Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization
and Reprocessing. It was discovered by Francine Shapiro, Ph.D.,
in 1987. We're not sure why it works, but it does. Simply by providing
side-to-side sensations to a person while discussing traumatic events
in a specific therapeutic fashion can work wonders in allowing the
person to heal himself or herself.
EMDR (1996) - In its simplest form, the technique itself, involves an individual 1) holding in mind a representative image (pictures, sounds, feelings) of "the problem," while 2) watching a clinician's left-right hand or finger movements. 3/5
