What is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing?
It is a therapeutic technique that involves directing eye movement in particular patterns while a client concentrates on disturbing or upsetting emotional material. The movement is thought to affect the way the memory is accessed and treated. “Desensitization” and “Reprocessing” refer to the fact that previously disturbing affective material becomes neutral. It is a way to process and release information trapped in the body-mind.
