What Is EMDR Therapy? Stages 7 & 8 Explained

Описание: In this video, I complete my overview of the 8 phases of EMDR therapy, focusing on Phase 7 (Closure) and Phase 6 (Re-Evaluation). These two phases are unique because they are not visited sequentially after Phase 6. Instead they make an appearance throughout the EMDR treatment. Watch the video to find out why!

👉 Watch Phases 5 & 6 Video:    • What Is EMDR Therapy? Stages 5 & 6 Explained  

Phases 7 & 8 are used to make sure that the client is grounded and emotionally stable between sessions, is prepared for what may happen after an EMDR session, and as a checkpoint in the treatment process.

👩‍🏫 What you’ll learn in this video:
✅ When and how Phase 7 (Closure) is used at the end of sessions
✅ Why it’s important for clients to feel emotionally secure and stable at the end of EMDR
✅ What you can expect to happen between sessions
✅ How we use Phase 8 (Re-Evaluation) to check our progress and plan treatment
✅ How we evaluate whether the traumatic memory has been successfully reprocessed
✅ Sneak peak of what happens after we have processed all traumatic memories in our plan

Whether you're a client curious about the EMDR process or a therapist learning how to explain it clearly, this video offers a practical, client-centred view of how EMDR promotes lasting change.
