EMDR Therapy
At Disha, we offer EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) in Edmonton for individuals seeking healing from trauma, anxiety, or distressing life experiences. EMDR is a highly effective, evidence-based approach designed to help the brain process and release emotional pain that may feel “stuck.” Whether you are struggling with PTSD, childhood trauma, grief, or negative self-beliefs, EMDR can help you gain relief without having to relive painful memories in detail.
Our trained EMDR therapists provide a safe, structured, and compassionate environment where you can gently reprocess difficult experiences, shift limiting patterns, and regain a sense of calm and control in your life. EMDR therapy empowers your natural ability to heal — helping you move forward with strength, clarity, and renewed emotional freedom.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy approach that uses guided eye movements or other bilateral stimulation to help the brain process and integrate traumatic or distressing memories.
Who can benefit from EMDR therapy?
EMDR is effective for people dealing with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, phobias, grief, abuse, or negative self-beliefs. It’s suitable for adults, teens, and sometimes older children.
Do I have to talk in detail about my trauma during EMDR?
No. One of the benefits of EMDR is that you don’t have to describe your experience in detail to your therapist. The focus is on your thoughts, emotions, and body responses as memories are reprocessed safely.
How long does EMDR therapy take?
The number of sessions varies depending on your history and goals. Some people experience relief in a few sessions, while others may benefit from a longer therapeutic process.
Is EMDR therapy safe?
