Is EMDR Therapy Right for Me?

EMDR therapy helps people to get relief from continual emotional distress from past events. These experiences may have generated from distressing or frightening experiences, relationship betrayals, accidents, medical procedures, or prolonged childhood adversities. 

If such distressing memories continue to trigger anxiety, fear, shame, emotional overwhelm or negative beliefs about oneself, EMDR may be a right approach. 

During an assessment, Dr Millia Begum will assess for suitability for EMDR Therapy and if not suitable, will offer alternative therapy options.

Common Questions About EMDR Therapy

Would EMDR therapy help with trauma and PTSD?
EMDR therapy is one of the most widely researched and recognised treatments for trauma and PTSD. It is commonly used to help people process distressing memories and reduce trauma-related symptoms.

Do I Need To Talk About My Trauma In Detail?
Not necessarily. EMDR focuses on distressing memories but the therapy does not necessarily require a detailed verbal retelling of traumatic experiences. Processing proceeds at an individually appropriate pace following assessment and preparation.

How Many EMDR Therapy Sessions Will I Need?
The number of sessions varies depending on the nature of the difficulties, the complexity of the trauma history, and treatment goals. During the assessment, Dr Millia will discuss a personalised treatment plan with you.

What Happens During the First EMDR Therapy Appointment?
The first appointment focuses on understanding your current difficulties, history, goals, and symptoms. Together, we discuss whether EMDR therapy, IFS therapy, DBR therapy, or an integrated approach is most suitable for your needs.
