EMDR is a therapy that uses eye movements to treat trauma. So...is it legit? We're going to dive deep into the world of EMDR therapy, exploring its origins, controversies, and the big question: How does eye movement help treat trauma? Join me as we unravel both the mysteries of this unique therapeutic approach and the life of its founder, Francine Shapiro, whose zeal and questionable business practices created the EMDR empire we know today. I also discuss current research findings on its efficacy and the controversies surrounding EMDR as an institution, including its dubious ties to pseudoscience.
This is really an opportunity for me to give my own perspective, navigate the complexities of EMDR, uncover its potential merits (especially in treating PTSD), and address the fanaticism and marketing claims that surround it. Whether you're a therapist, curious about mental health treatments, or just interested in learning a wild story, this video aims to shed light on the fascinating world of EMDR therapy and the ongoing debates within the mental health community.
