HOW LONG DOES EMDR TAKE?

EMDR THERAPY

One or more sessions are required for me to understand the nature of the problem and to decide whether EMDR is an appropriate treatment for you. In these sessions you and I will discuss EMDR more fully and I can answer any questions you may have about the method. Once we have agreed that EMDR is appropriate for a specific problem, the actual EMDR therapy may begin.

A typical EMDR session lasts from 60 to 90 minutes. The type of problem, life circumstances, and the amount of previous trauma will determine how many treatment sessions are necessary. EMDR may be used within a standard "talking" therapy, or as a treatment all by itself.
