Child EMDR Therapy
Children and young people can experience significant emotional upheavel and distress during their childhood and teenager years. Worries and disturbing memories can occur from single incident traumatic experiences as well as from ongoing multiple and accumulative traumas. These can impact on development and take away from children the experience of being safe in the world and that ‘all is well’.

- Anxiety and Worries
- Separation Difficulties

EMDR is able to help children at both home and school. For example, it can helps them to feel better and also reduce behaviours such as problems sleeping, eating, anxieties about school and school work, exams, low self-esteem, fears that they may have, and coping with family breakdown and bullying. Children who have experienced early loss, even in their early hours and days of life, can be helped by EMDR.
