Anyone Tried 'Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy?

[FxZIONZ]

Hey All,

I tried this therapy and was happy with the results. I am wandering what other peoples experiences were with it.

Hi FxZIONZ, welcome to the forums.  We have quite a number of threads on this, many from members who have been here in the past and are no longer posting.  We would suggest you put "EMDR" into the search bar at the top of the page, and it will bring up a list of past threads for you.

Thanks Sophie!

I didnt even realise you could search for topics.

I've heard of this type of therapy but I'm not sure what it is. Would someone be ok with explaining it to me please? Sorry I'm just finding this now, I've been browsing on the "new posts" on the website, hence me just finding this.

I'm glad it helped you FxZIONZ.

Hey Tay

I had my first session recently. I don't think I could explain it well though, so it might be better if you searched the term on the forums, or googled it.

Thanks Katy, I'll try but I may not be able to understand it. I'll look it up later

Hey everyone

I've not tried it but my friend has done it for sleep issues

The only advice I was given was that it is relatively easy to be traind to be an EMDR practioner so it's good to try and get it down with a psychologist or someone who has relevant MH training outside of just administering MH

If I were to do it I would go to a clinical psychologist or social worker if possible

I'm open to the fact that it helps many ppl.

I don't know how to explain it or understand it either.

[Guest_4643]

Do you know the type of people that would do it Sleepy, please?

hi sorry I don't know anything more
