EMDR

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy designed to relieve psychological distress. Originally developed for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), EMDR is now widely used to treat a range of difficulties, including complex trauma, anxiety, and attachment-related issues.

 

How EMDR Works

At the heart of EMDR is bilateral stimulation—such as eye movements, tapping, or auditory tones—which helps the brain process distressing memories that may be contributing to current symptoms. These memories might stem from:

• A single traumatic incident

• Multiple distressing experiences over time

• Difficulties in early relationships or attachment patterns

• ​

By reprocessing these memories, EMDR can reduce emotional intensity and help you move forward with greater resilience.

​

My Approach

I am an accredited EMDR practitioner with additional training in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). As a Clinical Psychologist, my core training spans multiple therapeutic models, allowing me to integrate EMDR into a broader, personalised treatment plan.

​

I use a range of EMDR equipment to ensure that bilateral stimulation is delivered in a way that suits your preferences and needs.
