EMDR therapy
Description
Francine Shapiro tells a story describing how she “discovered” EMDR — eye movement desensitization and reprocessing — in the 1980s by noticing that moving her eyes while thinking about a troubling circumstance decreased the degree of angst she felt. She published her first write up on the EMD “technique,” as it was referred to initially, in 1987. The first clinical studies were published in 1989. [Excerpt]
