What is EMDR therapy used for?

EMDR is a therapeutic approach that facilitates the body’s natural ability to process and heal traumatic memories. EMDR is based on the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model which posits that when we experience trauma, our brains store the memories incorrectly. Francine Shapiro pioneered this therapeutic approach originally to treat Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), but it is also used to effectively reduce symptoms for a range of mental health problems. If you're looking for EMDR therapists, you can count on The Lighthouse Emotional Wellness Center. Their EMDR therapists use this specific therapeutic model to help their clients explore and heal the issues that are causing problems in their lives.
