How is EMDR Therapy Helpful For Eye Disorder Patients?

 EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy differs from "talk therapy" in that it alters the way distressing experiences are stored in the brain. Distress emotions, beliefs, and bodily sensations are reduced. As a result of "processing," these experiences are learned and retained. It is a popular therapy for those people suffering from trauma, abuse, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem. EMDR Therapy in Austin can also help you perform better in relationships, work, school, and life in general.

This model is consistent with strengths-based perspectives that our minds have a natural ability to process what happens to us in a healthy and resilient manner. However, significant stressful experiences can cut that process short. 

EMDR works by stimulating the brain in ways that restore the resilient circuitry while reducing or "desensitizing" the emotional charge that has resulted in ongoing pain or suffering. The goal of each EMDR session is to neutralize the triggers and long-term effects that some people experience following a highly stressful experience. Some strenuous situations will probably become less distressing.

This type of treatment has decades of authentic research proving its effectiveness and is used to treat not only PTSD but also anxiety, traumatic events and disorders, depression, panic, and pain, to name a few.
