The eye movement desensitization and reprocessing is probably a great blessing in the medical world. EMDR which is its shorter term, helped a lot of people. It has been one of the wonderful discovery that psychologist came up.
In an EMDR the therapist will wave his or her fingers in front of the eye of the patient. Then the patient will follow the finger of the therapist as it moves slowly from left to right. Many use EMDR therapy for PTSD, or post traumatic stress disorder.
A severe psychiatric disorder called the post traumatic stress disorder can take place if you been through a distressing and unfortunate event in your life badly. Experiences such as car accidents, wars or battles for military, physical assaults, rape and great calamities. One may go through some bad night with nightmares and flashbacks. Phobias, depression and anxiety may also be experienced.
This was discovered by a psychologist whose name is Francine Shapiro in the year nineteen eighty seven. She was suffering a stressful and negative memories. While walking into the woods one day, she noticed that negative emotions were lessened as her eyes were moving from side to side. She made some research and investigated about the effect on it to her. She named the technique, the eye movement desensitization. And later on changing its name to EMDR, reprocessing for R.
This technique combined many elements from the other existing psychotherapies, cognitive behavioral, experimental and interpersonal, for instance. Traumatic events will really not be easy for one to manage, but there are several people that you can turn to assist you. On the first phase of the your treatment you will be carefully assessed, including your experiences. Discussion of taking away all of the negative feeling will follow. Hey will set a goal for you.
The therapist will ensure that his or her client will be in a stable phase prior talking about the traumatic experience, that will be in the second phase. The client may be given some relaxation techniques if he or she will not yet be stable talking about it.
Third phase and so on, the discussion will be all about the related issues concerning your emotions, images, body sensations and beliefs. You will discuss those things while looking at his hand and its movement. It will go on as until the negativity is really gone.
On the seventh phase, he or she will be asked to write something the is related to a bad event. This will happen by the time they will reach the last session of treatment. And he or she will be evaluated on the eighth phase.
