My experience with EMDR
In this episode, Joseph speaks to Monica and Emily all about his experience with eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR).
What is EMDR?
When a person experiences a traumatic event, it can be difficult for the brain to process information because of such strong overwhelming emotions experienced. EMDR works by helping the brain to process traumatic memories and file them away into the past.
We want to say a huge thank you to Joseph for taking the time to be a part of the podcast, and for being open to sharing his experience with therapy.
To find out more about EMDR, visit our website.
