Q: How does EMDR work?

A: EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic or distressing memories using bilateral stimulation (eye movements, sounds, or tapping). This reduces the emotional intensity of those memories.

Q: Is EMDR safe?

A: Yes. EMDR is an evidence-based therapy widely used for trauma. Sessions are paced carefully to ensure emotional safety.

Q: How many sessions will I need?

A: It depends on the nature and intensity of trauma. Some clients notice change within a few sessions, while others benefit from longer-term work.

Q: Do I have to talk in detail about my trauma?

A: Not always. EMDR can work without going into extensive detail, focusing instead on how memories feel in the present.
