Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
Online EMDR Therapy in California
Per the APA, “Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to briefly focus on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.”
Promising Outlook often utilizes EMDR as part of a personalized multi-pronged approach to treatment as part of an intensive outpatient program (IOP) when once-a-week therapy isn’t enough.

Treatments
Using EMDR to treat PTSD
EMDR therapy uses a structured eight-phase approach that includes:
Phase 1: History-taking
Phase 2: Preparing the client
Phase 3: Assessing the target memory
Phases 4-7: Processing the memory to adaptive resolution
Phase 8: Evaluating treatment results
Processing of a specific memory is generally completed within one to three sessions.
EMDR therapy differs from other trauma-focused treatments in that it does not include extended exposure to the distressing memory, detailed descriptions of the trauma, challenging of dysfunctional beliefs or homework assignments.
