Inhaltsangabe

Have you heard of EMDR therapy? Although this therapy comes from the United States, more and more psychologists use it in many countries, since most psychologists are aware that when trauma exists, there is a disconnection between the past and the present, between emotions and cognition.

This rupture makes conventional therapeutic approaches difficult, making talking or bringing up old emotions not only not effective, but sometimes it can even make the patient more sensitive. Explaining trauma is not enough.

So a Californian psychologist began working on a revolutionary technique called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). 

It all started in 1987, while Francine Shapiro, a Senior Researcher at the Mental Research Institute in Palo Alto, California, was taking a walk in the park. Then she realized that the thoughts that disturbed her had disappeared, and, later, when they returned, they no longer bothered her as before.

Paying more attention, he realized that when a disturbing thought came to his mind, his eyes began to move quickly. Then she began to experiment, thinking about past experiences that still bothered her while moving her eyes.

He then began applying the EMDR technique to his patients, to help them process traumatic memories. Its results were excellent since EMDR allows you to work with the trauma by reprocessing it to leave behind painful emotions
