At The New York Mental Health Group, we offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)—an evidence‑based, structured therapy that helps people heal from the emotional distress of traumatic experiences. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the pain of a memory, EMDR can help you move forward without having to relive every detail, building lasting relief and emotional resilience.

Who EMDR Helps:

• Post‑Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)

• Anxiety and panic attacks

• Depression and low self‑worth

• Grief and loss

• Childhood trauma or abuse

How It Works:
Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR uses guided eye movements or other bilateral stimulation (like tapping or auditory tones) to help the brain process and integrate disturbing memories. This reduces emotional reactivity, rewires negative beliefs, and restores a sense of safety and control. EMDR doesn’t erase what happened—it changes how it affects you.

Trusted and Effective:
EMDR is endorsed by the American Psychological Association, the World Health Organization, and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. It is suitable for individuals of all ages and can be combined with other therapies for comprehensive healing.
