EMDR Coffs Harbour 

Trauma can profoundly impact how you experience yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. Whether it’s from a single distressing event or prolonged exposure to overwhelming circumstances, the effects can leave you feeling stuck, on edge, or disconnected from life. PTSD, in particular, can intensify these experiences, bringing flashbacks, nightmares, and intense emotional reactions that make everyday life feel like a struggle.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured therapeutic approach in which a therapist helps the patient focus on specific elements of a traumatic memory while simultaneously engaging in ‘bilateral stimulation’—most commonly through guided eye movements. This process has been linked to a decrease in the intensity and emotional impact of distressing memories.

Extensive research supports EMDR as a highly effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). By facilitating the adaptive reprocessing of traumatic experiences, EMDR enables individuals to integrate these memories in a way that reduces their disruptive influence on daily life.
