Anxiety can affect daily life in ways that feel overwhelming, from persistent worry and racing thoughts to difficulty sleeping or managing stress. While many treatments are available, EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) therapy has emerged as a highly effective approach for reducing anxiety and addressing the underlying causes.
Here at Bridges Therapy Centre, we offer specialist EMDR in London for adults experiencing anxiety, in addition to trauma, PTSD and phobias.
What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR is a structured, evidence-based therapy originally developed to treat trauma and PTSD. It works by helping the brain process distressing memories and experiences that may trigger anxiety. Through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation, EMDR helps the brain reframe these memories, reducing their emotional impact and making them less likely to provoke anxiety.
How EMDR Helps with Anxiety
Anxiety often arises from unresolved or overwhelming experiences that become “stuck” in the brain. EMDR therapy targets these experiences directly, allowing the nervous system to process them safely. Over a series of sessions, individuals often notice reduced worry, improved emotional regulation, and a greater sense of calm in daily life. EMDR is particularly effective when anxiety is linked to past events, phobias, or anticipatory stress about future situations.
The Benefits of EMDR Therapy
EMDR therapy is fast, non-invasive, and evidence-based. Many clients experience measurable improvements in just a few sessions. Unlike talk therapy alone, EMDR addresses the root causes of anxiety, helping individuals regain confidence, build resilience, and improve overall wellbeing.
