Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful healing method that has helped an estimated half million people, adults, young people and children, relieve many troublesome symptoms resulting from TRAUMA. EMDR has also been applied to other problems including depression, anxiety, sexual abuse and phobias.
Evidence suggests that for many clients EMDR can significantly shorten the length of treatment and enhance results far beyond the scope of being involved in talking therapy alone. The reason for this is that emotional wounds are located in a more primitive part of the brain that are not accessible to language.
EMDR is a non-drug, non-hypnotic psychotherapy procedure.
Your EMDR Therapist will work with you in a safe and confidential way to track whatever comes to the surface until the negative aspects are neutralized. At the session’s conclusion, your Therapist would provide some resources that will leave you feeling in control and more empowered.
Here at the Manchester Centre for EMDR it is one of the therapies available and all our therapists are qualified and experienced practitioners who abide by appropriate professional Ethical Frameworks and codes of practice. We also provide Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Hypnotherapy for Pain Management, Integrative Grief Therapy and Return to Employment Counselling.
The Manchester Centre for EMDR is based within the Manchester Centre for CBT and we currently have consulting rooms in Withington (South Manchester) and Manchester City Centre.

EMDR FAQ
FAQS ABOUT EMDR
Is EMDR a one-session cure?
No. Many clients report experiencing benefits following one or two sessions.
Clients with multiple traumas and/or complex histories of childhood abuse, neglect, and poor attachment may require more extensive therapy.
What will happen in the session?
Initially you would attend for an Assessment session with the EMDR therapist. In this session they will be working with you to identify your current problems and assessing whether EMDR may be appropriate form of treatment, and whether you are suited to this approach. They will provide you with some further information on EMDR and answer any questions (when possible) you may have about the treatment. Following the Assessment sessions a treatment plan may be identified for you and the therapist will check your interest in proceeding with treatment.
Is EMDR an effective treatment for PTSD?
Yes. EMDR is the most researched psychotherapy treatment for PTSD.
It has also been reported as helpful in combination with cognitive behavioural therapy.
Are treatment effects maintained over time?
Research suggests the effects of EMDR treatment are maintained over time for many clients.
Is EMDR effective in the treatment of phobias, panic disorder, or agoraphobia?
Currently available information concerning the effectivness of EMDR treatment suggests that for some clients it may be effective in the treatment of specific phobias. However research is ongoing in this area.
Is EMDR applied to every clinical disorder?
No. EMDR was developed as a treatment approach for traumatic memories. Research has consistently demonstrated its effectiveness in the treatment of PTSD. However EMDR may not be the treatment of choice for every client.
Can EMDR be used with Children?
Yes. There is growing evidence that EMDR can be used successfully with children and young people.
What is EMDR?
EMDR: Background
EMDR works by activating both the right and left sides of the brain while recalling an traumatic event. This allows the memory to be reprocessed and the emotion attached to it to be released. The activation of the left and right sides of the brain is normally achieved through eye movement: the practitioner or therapist will instruct you to hold your head still and track your eyes from left to right and back, up and down or diagonally. Although it is called EYE MOVEMENT desensitization and reprocessing eye movements are not essential and when a patient for some reason cannot make eye movements then sound or touch stimulation can be used.
WHAT IS EMDR?
EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It was invented by Francine Shapiro in 1987. Since this time EMDR Therapy has developed further and is now used regularly for the treatment of PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). More controversially it used to treat depression, anxiety, and phobias.
