Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy has revolutionized trauma treatment, offering hope and healing to countless individuals. At Fountaingate, we’re proud to offer this innovative therapeutic approach to help our clients process traumatic experiences and reclaim their lives.

What is EMDR Therapy?

EMDR is a specialized psychotherapy approach that helps people process and integrate traumatic memories. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements) to help the brain process stuck memories and reduce their emotional impact.

How Does EMDR Work?

During EMDR sessions, you’ll recall traumatic memories while engaging in bilateral stimulation. This process helps your brain reprocess the memory, reducing its emotional charge and allowing for healthier integration.

What Can EMDR Treat?

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Childhood trauma
Anxiety and panic disorders
Depression
Phobias
Grief and loss

What to Expect in EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy typically involves eight phases, beginning with history-taking and preparation, moving through memory processing, and ending with future planning. Your therapist will guide you through each step at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
