How EMDR Works
A person becomes traumatized when an event or series of events causes that individual to become emotionally, physically or mentally overwhelmed, and fearful that he or she will be hurt, killed or have a psychological breakdown. It happens, in part, because a particularly disturbing event can cause a breakdown in the ability of the right and left hemispheres of the brain to work together to process the event in their usual, integrated way. Instead, the traumatic event remains in a split-off or disconnected state in the right hemisphere, cutoff from the left, which is the region that contains the ability to use language, to orient oneself in time, and to formulate personal meaning from experience.

Virtual therapy can be a phenomenal way to make time and space for support, self-exploration, understanding, and growth. It has been shown to have similar outcomes, in terms of patient satisfaction and self-reported growth, as in-person treatment. With that being said, online therapy is not for everyone.
