The Power of EMDR and Telehealth

Telehealth therapy has been gaining popularity in recent years, especially since COVID. More and more people are finding the effectiveness and convenience of online therapy preferable to in-person therapy and the commute to a therapist’s office. Even specialized modalities, such as EMDR therapy can be effectively done via telehealth. When Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is paired with the convenience and accessibility of telehealth, the potential for healing becomes even more profound.

What is EMDR Therapy?

EMDR therapy is a unique approach that walks clients through a therapeutic process while using bilateral stimulation to help individuals process and overcome traumatic experiences. It is a game-changer for those struggling with anxiety, PTSD, depression, and more. The beauty of EMDR lies in its ability to facilitate rapid, transformative healing by accessing the brain’s natural processing.

How Telehealth Helps Bring EMDR Therapy to You

Thankfully, the power of EMDR therapy can be used during online therapy. Telehealth brings therapy directly to your fingertips. Eliminating barriers like distance, transportation, and scheduling conflicts. As a result of its convenience, telehealth has made therapy possible for many people. Who, otherwise, would not be able to access mental health care.

Imagine being able to engage in deeply transformative therapy sessions from the comfort of your own home. No commuting, no sitting in traffic, no worrying about making it to your appointment on time. With telehealth, the therapeutic journey becomes more convenient and accessible than ever before. And when it comes to EMDR, convenience can be a game-changer. In addition to the convenience, there are many people who find doing therapy, such as EMDR, preferable in the comfort of their home. Especially if their home feels like a safe place for them.

One of the key components of EMDR therapy is bilateral stimulation. Which involves eye movements or taps. In a face-to-face setting, this can be incredibly powerful. But thanks to telehealth platforms equipped with features like video conferencing and audio cues, bilateral stimulation can be integrated into virtual sessions just as effectively as in-person sessions.

Benefits of EMDR Telehealth Therapy Sessions

1.  You can access telehealth therapy from the comfort and safety of your environment. This can be particularly impactful for those who may feel anxious or triggered in traditional therapy settings. By creating a familiar and comfortable space, telehealth can help you feel more relaxed.
2. Online therapy eliminates many of the logistical problems that can prevent people from seeking therapy. Barriers such as a lack of transportation, busy work schedules, or living in remote areas are overcome with online therapy. 
3. Telehealth is flexible. With virtual therapy sessions, clients have more options when it comes to scheduling appointments. Early morning, late evening, or even during a lunch break you can access an online therapy appointment.
