 Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is a structured, evidence-based psychotherapy designed to help individuals process and heal from traumatic memories and distressing life experiences. Developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro in the late 1980s, EMDR is particularly effective for treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and other trauma-related conditions.

Key Features:

1. Adaptive Information Processing (AIP): EMDR is based on the AIP model, which suggests that traumatic memories can become "stuck" in the brain, preventing natural healing. EMDR helps reprocess these memories to reduce emotional distress.
2. Bilateral Stimulation: During therapy, clients focus on distressing memories while engaging in bilateral stimulation, such as guided eye movements, hand-tapping, or auditory tones. This helps activate the brain's natural healing mechanisms.
3. Structured Protocol: EMDR follows an eight-phase approach, including history-taking, preparation, assessment, desensitization, installation, body scan, closure, and reevaluation.

EMDR therapy has been shown to alleviate symptoms of trauma, reduce negative beliefs, and promote emotional resilience. It is suitable for individuals of all ages and can be adapted for various mental health conditions.

It was initially designed to treat individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) but has since been adapted for various mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and PTSD.

DBT combines principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with mindfulness and acceptance strategies. Its core philosophy is "dialectics," which emphasizes balancing acceptance and change—acknowledging where you are while striving for growth.
