The Role of EMDR in PTSD Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a specialized form of psychotherapy that has gained recognition for its effectiveness in addressing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Developed by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, EMDR stands out because it employs bilateral stimulation, which often involves guided eye movements, to help individuals process and integrate traumatic memories.
