EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured psychotherapy that helps people heal from trauma and disturbing life experiences by reducing the emotional intensity of painful memories. It uses bilateral stimulation--such as eye movements, taps, or sounds-- while recalling distressing events to help the brain reprocess memories. Emdr Institute
