I provide therapy using the EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) approach for patients aged 12 and over; I am under the ongoing supervision of Certified Supervisors from the Polish Society for EMDR Therapy. The decision to commence psychotherapy is made following three diagnostic sessions.
EMDR therapy was developed in the United States by Francine Shapiro; it has developed and evolved over the last twenty years and has also been in use in Poland for several years. It is one of two methods officially recommended by the World Health Organisation (WHO) for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in children, adolescents and adults. The EMDR method can help people with a wide range of psychological problems and disorders; it is particularly recommended for difficulties triggered by traumatic events such as violence, sexual abuse, accidents or natural disasters.
