Online EMDR Therapy for Trauma, Self-worth & Anxiety

Many people start to notice benefits within a few sessions, especially for single-event trauma. However, the timeline can vary depending on the individual and the complexity of the issues being addressed. No specific prognosis can be promised.

EMDR doesn’t erase memories but it helps reduce their emotional intensity. The goal is to reprocess the memory in a way that it no longer triggers distress, allowing you to recall the event without being overwhelmed by it.

EMDR can help process the underlying traumatic experiences that lead to feelings of shame or guilt. By reducing the emotional charge of these memories, it allows individuals to develop a healthier sense of self-worth and move past self-blame.

Typically, an EMDR session lasts 90 minutes.

Yes, EMDR can be very effective in an intensive format. However, it’s important to note that not everyone is suited to an intensive approach. Some individuals may need a slower pace or require more preparation before beginning intensive work.

Opting for two 90-minute EMDR sessions per week, rather than one 60-minute session, can offer several benefits. The increased frequency allows for more material to be addressed in a shorter period, maintaining momentum and helping prevent emotional build-up between sessions. Longer sessions also provide the opportunity to focus more intensively on specific issues, supporting quicker integration of trauma. However, it’s important to note that the frequency of sessions should always be tailored to the individual’s needs and therapeutic goals.
