National EMDR Associations

National EMDR Associations exist to promote and support the practice of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a therapeutic approach used primarily for treating trauma and PTSD. These associations provide training, resources, and networking opportunities for mental health professionals interested in using EMDR. They also advocate for the recognition and understanding of EMDR within the broader mental health community and among the public. By maintaining standards and promoting research, these organizations ensure that practitioners are well-equipped to deliver effective treatment, ultimately enhancing the care provided to those struggling with traumatic experiences.
