Understanding EMDR

What is EMDR therapy?

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy with approximately 30 years of research behind it. Endorsed by the World Health Organisation and leading clinical bodies worldwide, it has helped millions of people process difficult memories and find relief from distressing symptoms.

"You don't have to talk about your trauma in detail — EMDR works with the way your brain naturally processes experience."
EMDR for clients EMDR for therapists

Evidence-based & widely endorsed

Endorsed by the WHO, Phoenix Australia, and the American Psychiatric Association for trauma and PTSD treatment.

WHO Phoenix Australia SAMHSA NICE

No need to recount every detail

EMDR does not require you to narrate your experience in depth, which many clients find a significant relief.

Helps with a range of presentations

Originally developed for PTSD, EMDR is now used for anxiety, depression, grief, phobias, performance anxiety, and more.

Lasting results — in-person or telehealth

Research shows that EMDR's benefits continue long after the therapy has concluded. Carmel offers both in-person sessions in Bowral and telehealth sessions for clients across Australia.
