EMDR is a dynamic and highly successful therapeutic treatment using the mind and body's natural ability to heal. Through the use of the Adaptive Information Processing Theory, EMDR has revolutionized the way therapist approach mental health issues. Discovered about 15 years ago by the pioneering psychologist Francine Shapiro, EMDR has grown into one of the most effective therapeutic treatments used today. The Technique incorporates neurobiology, cognitive processing, and psychology. EMDR is one of the most efficient forms of psychotherapy in use today. Goals that use to take years of intensive therapy to achieve, are now attainable with months of EMDR treatment.
