Eye Movement Desensitization And Reprocessing
EMDR is a clinical treatment particularly suited for victims of trauma. There are approximately 20,000 therapists trained in EMDR across the country. According to the originator of EMDR, Dr. Francene Shapiro, the effects of EMDR are similar to the processes that occur in REM sleep. This innovative treatment allows trauma victims to reprocess their memories and emotions so that they are able to cope more effectively with them.
