My speciality: psychological trauma
Trauma is a complex issue: problems are often deep-seated and can be challenging to treat. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a highly effective, comprehensive psychological treatment for trauma, founded on a strong evidence base: it is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) and approved by the World Health Organization (WHO) for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). There is also growing evidence of its effectiveness in the treatment of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and physical pain.
