+ | ==== What does the process look like? ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | [[emdr|EMDR]] is widely recommended by many of the leading mental health organizations around the world. The treatment process consists of multiple phases, including: | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Phase 1:** History and Treatment Planning. The first phase of EMDR is a history-taking session, where you and your therapist will identify possible targets for therapy. With a greater understanding of you and your needs, your therapist will then develop a treatment plan that targets: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * the event(s) that occurred | ||
+ | * the current | ||
+ | * the present circumstances that cause distress | ||
+ | * the necessary abilities or behaviours needed to learn in the long term | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Phase 2**: Preparation. During the second phase of EMDR, your therapist will guide you in learning different coping and relaxation strategies to handle emotional distress. These stress reduction techniques are meant for you to use during and between sessions. Since EMDR tends to produce rapid change, the goal is to maintain balance and equilibrium in your day-to-day life. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Phases 3-6**: Assessment. During the third phase, you and your therapist will identify particular memories and the components associated | ||
+ | |||
+ | * A detailed mental picture of a target event (from phase 1) | ||
+ | * A negative belief about yourself associated with the event | ||
+ | * Relevant emotions and physical sensations | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Phases 4-7**: Treatment. These phases focus on using EMDR therapy techniques to treat the targeted memories. While focusing on the mental image, emotion, or belief, your therapist will ask you to follow specific eye movements. These movements are also known as bilateral stimulation and can include | ||
+ | |||
+ | Afterwards, your therapist will ask you to clear your mind and pay attention to the thoughts and feelings that arise spontaneously. Once they' | ||
+ | |||
+ | In case you get distressed, your therapist will guide you in returning to the present moment. This process is repeated until the distress over specific thoughts, images, or memories starts to fade. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Phase 8**: Evaluation. In the final phase of treatment, you'll examine your progress. | ||
