EMDR Institute

The EMDR Institute is an organization focused on Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a psychotherapy technique designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic experiences. Founded by Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, the institute trains therapists in this approach, which involves guided eye movements to help reprocess distressing memories. EMDR is widely used for trauma recovery, PTSD, and anxiety disorders. The institute also conducts research, provides resources, and promotes best practices in the field, contributing to the broader understanding and application of EMDR therapy in mental health treatment.
