Why practice EMDR?
Based on EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) which means desensitization and reprogramming by eye movement.
EMDR is a brief therapy based on the natural movement of the eyes.
This therapeutic technique was originally developed for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder that occurs after a traumatic and shocking event. Symptoms can manifest themselves psychologically and/or physically in victims of assault, sexual violence, mistreatment, accidents, attacks, family difficulties such as marital breakdown. But also physical symptoms that jeopardize the health of the patient, such as illnesses, repeated behaviors such as anxiety attacks, anguish, violence, eating disorders.
Eye movement is made up of two distinct stages: the first is that of the “deprogramming” of traumatic information or memory that causes post-traumatic stress and other associated pathologies. We therefore go back to the source of the problem with gentle support.
The second is the “reprogramming” thanks to the meeting of the conscious and the unconscious which will make it possible to completely repair the trauma. The technique of EMDR therapy includes sensory, ocular, auditory stimulation which unblocks traumatic information through emotional discharge and allows reactivation of the natural healing system and then completely treats and discharges the emotional charge and the associated behavior.
It is a therapy suitable for everyone. EMDR works equally well for children, adolescents, and adults. It allows the disappearance of the symptoms, a detachment and a conscious release from the traumatic obstacle. Patients have more clarity of mind.
Since 2013 The World Health Organization recommends this method of psychotherapy for the treatment of traumatic disorders in adults and children.
It improves relationships, well-being at work and in daily life. This psychotherapy brings a real mental appeasement, an emotional discharge, more clarity, and a detachment from the traumatic memories that are the cause of the malaise.
