EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a therapy model designed to alleviate distress related to traumatic memories. EMDR is an empirically validated treatment model that has been used to treat a wide variety of symptoms related to trauma.
Some common issues that EMDR can be used to treat include:

- Complex trauma (e.g., abuse)
- Other mental health issues (e.g., depression, anxiety)
