EMDR
¿Qué trata EMDR?​
La desensibilización y reprocesamiento por movimientos oculares (EMDR) se descubrió originalmente para trabajar con clientes que tenÃan antecedentes de trauma y habÃan sido diagnosticados con trastorno de estrés postraumático (TEPT). Sin embargo, a lo largo de los años se está integrando en el tratamiento de otros problemas como el estrés, la ansiedad, la depresión, el abuso de sustancias y las adicciones, los problemas de apego y autoestima, y muchos otros asuntos que tienen un componente de angustia emocional o fÃsica asociado.
​
EMDR es una técnica especializada que requiere un entrenamiento especÃfico. Por lo tanto, no todos los terapeutas practican este tipo de terapia. Barcelona Counseling proporciona terapeutas que han sido especialmente capacitados para tratar muchos problemas con EMDR. neurorretroalimentación

¿Cómo es una sesión de EMDR?
Durante la sesión de EMDR, el cliente se enfoca en un recuerdo perturbador e identifica las emociones/sentimientos, las sensaciones fÃsicas que causa el recuerdo y la creencia negativa conectada a este recuerdo. Por ejemplo, al tratar con un recuerdo en el que el cliente experimentó la falta de amor de sus padres, la persona puede creer que "no soy lo suficientemente bueno", puede sentirse triste y solo, y puede sentir tensión en el área del estómago. Cuando se identifican, el cliente procede a imaginar ayudantes o recursos para lidiar con esas emociones, sensaciones y creencias negativas. Al imaginar que el cliente está recibiendo ayuda, el cliente comienza a sentir emociones más positivas, sensaciones fÃsicas y comienza a experimentar creencias positivas en sà mismo como: "Soy lo suficientemente bueno".

EMDR
One of the specialized services we offer is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. EMDR is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps individuals process and heal from traumatic events and other distressing experiences.
​​​
What Does EMDR Treat?
EMDR was initially developed to treat trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). However, it has been found effective in treating various other mental health issues, including:
​
-
Stress
-
Anxiety
-
Depression
-
Substance abuse and addictions
-
Attachment and self-esteem issues
-
Other conditions involving emotional or physical distress
​​
Our therapists are specially trained in EMDR, ensuring clients receive high-quality, professional care. EMDR's effectiveness lies in its structured approach to processing distressing memories and the emotional and physical symptoms associated with them.
​
​
How Does an EMDR Session Work?
During an EMDR session, clients focus on a troubling memory while identifying the emotions, physical sensations, and negative beliefs associated with that memory. For example, if a client experienced a lack of love from parents, they might feel "I am not good enough," accompanied by sadness and physical tension.
​
The EMDR process helps the client to reprocess the memory by imagining support or resources to deal with these negative feelings. Through this process, clients start to experience more positive emotions and self-beliefs, such as "I am good enough." This gradual shift leads to a transformation in how they perceive themselves and their past experiences.
​
An EMDR session involves eight phases:
1. History Taking: Gathering information about the client's history and identifying the target memories for processing.
2. Preparation: Preparing the client for the therapy, including teaching self-soothing techniques.
3. Assessment: Evaluating the specific memory to be targeted and the emotions, sensations, and beliefs associated with it.
4. Desensitization: Using eye movements to process the memory and reduce its emotional impact.
5. Installation: Strengthening positive beliefs related to the memory.
6. Body Scan: Checking for any residual physical tension related to the memory.
7. Closure: Helping the client return to a calm state at the end of each session.
8. Reassessment: Evaluating the progress in subsequent sessions.
​
Through these phases, clients gradually feel less stressed and more empowered. Our team is dedicated to guiding clients through each phase, ensuring they feel supported and understood throughout their healing journey.
