Learn about EMDR therapyFrequently asked questions
What happens in a first session?
In the first session, we talk about what brings you here: what you would like to ease, change or understand. It is also a time to get to know each other. The approach then evolves as the work progresses.
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR is a therapy that helps to process painful or traumatic memories. While you recall the memory, the psychologist guides alternating stimulation, most often eye movements. The acronym stands for "Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing".
Are sessions confidential?
Yes. The psychologist is bound by professional confidentiality: what you say in a session stays between you.
