Heal from Trauma and Overcome Emotional Challenges with EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful and evidence-based therapy designed to help individuals process and recover from trauma, distressing life experiences, and emotional challenges.
Whether you're struggling with post-traumatic stress, anxiety, or other emotional difficulties, EMDR therapy can offer relief by allowing you to reprocess traumatic memories in a safe, supportive environment.
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR is a structured, eight-phase approach that utilises bilateral stimulation—such as guided eye movements, taps, or sounds—to help desensitise and reprocess traumatic or distressing memories.
Through this process, you can experience a reduction in the emotional intensity of these memories, allowing you to move forward without the same emotional weight or triggers.
How EMDR Therapy Can Help You
EMDR has been extensively researched and proven effective in treating:
» Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
» Anxiety and Panic Disorders
» Depression
» Grief and Loss
» Phobias
» Addictions
» Chronic Pain
» Childhood Trauma and Abuse
Our compassionate therapists are trained in providing EMDR therapy, ensuring you receive high-quality care tailored to your specific needs.
What to Expect from EMDR Therapy
During your EMDR sessions, your therapist will guide you through a series of eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation while recalling specific distressing events or memories. This process allows your brain to naturally heal by reprocessing the negative emotions and thoughts associated with the event. Over time, this reduces their emotional impact, helping you feel more in control and less overwhelmed.
EMDR sessions are safe, and our therapists work at your pace to ensure you feel comfortable and supported throughout your healing journey.

How long does EMDR therapy take?

Is EMDR therapy covered by Medicare?
Medicare rebates may be available for EMDR therapy if you have a referral through a Mental Health Care Plan from your GP. Please contact us for more information or visit our Medicare Mental Health Care Plan page.
Do I need to relive the traumatic experience?
EMDR therapy focuses on the memories of the trauma, but you won’t need to relive or discuss all the details in depth. The process focuses more on how the memory affects you now rather than the event itself.
