EMDR Therapy in London

Specialist EMDR therapy in London for adults affected by trauma, intrusive memories, distressing experiences or PTSD symptoms. Treatment is delivered at a pace that prioritises safety, preparation and your individual goals.

EMDR Therapy Tailored to You

EMDR may be considered when past experiences continue to feel emotionally present through flashbacks, nightmares, strong reactions to reminders, avoidance, numbness or hypervigilance.

Treatment does not begin by immediately revisiting difficult memories. Work starts with assessment, stabilisation and preparation so that the process is planned carefully around your needs and current circumstances.

When appropriate, you and your therapist agree the experiences or themes to address. You remain able to pause, ask questions and communicate what you need throughout therapy.

Therapy Approach

EMDR treatment follows a structured, evidence-based process that may include:

  • Clinical assessment and treatment planning

  • Stabilisation and emotional regulation

  • Preparation for trauma processing

  • Bilateral stimulation using the EMDR protocol when appropriate

Following your assessment, your therapist will discuss whether EMDR is suitable and recommend a plan based on your history, symptoms, safety needs and goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is EMDR only used for PTSD?

​

No. EMDR is commonly associated with PTSD but may be considered for other trauma-related distress following a clinical assessment.

Do I have to describe every detail of the trauma?

​

The therapist needs enough information to plan treatment safely, but EMDR does not always require a detailed verbal account of every aspect of an experience.

Will EMDR begin at the first appointment?

​

Usually the first appointment is an assessment. Stabilisation, preparation and treatment planning take place before processing begins.

How many EMDR sessions will I need?

​

This depends on your history, goals and response to treatment. The recommended plan is discussed after assessment and reviewed regularly.
