EMDR vs Root-cause Therapy Treatment Benefits
When it comes to treatment of mental health issues, such as depression, PTSD, anxiety and more it has been found over and over again that healing trauma can be effective in recovery of many symptoms that people experience which negatively affects them day to day.
A therapy which often gets spoken about is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). This was discovered by a psychologist Francine Shapiro whom invented EMDR in the 1980s when she noticed that moving her eyes from side to side seemed to reduce the occurrence of her own distressing memories.
Although there have been some clinical trials for EMDR, the purpose of this article is to compare this older therapy to one of the latest therapies being introduced to heal trauma and its negative effects, Root-cause Therapy. As the name suggests, this therapy is all about getting to the Root-cause of peoples current presenting issues.
Below we have made a comparison chart to look at how they differ;
Although both therapies are very effective, and work from a ‘bottom up’ approach working with deeper parts of the mind (unlike talk therapy), we highly recommend Root-cause Therapy.
