Panic attacks are deeply physical experiences that can feel sudden and overwhelming. EMDR therapy works with the nervous system to help the body process fear and learn how to feel safe again.

Anxiety and panic are often described as mental experiences, but for many people, they are felt most strongly in the body. Physical symptoms can appear suddenly and feel intense, even when the mind feels calm. Learning how the nervous system responds to anxiety can bring clarity, reduce fear, and support a more grounded sense of safety.

Anxiety and stress can affect both the mind and body, often lingering even when insight is present. EMDR therapy offers a mind-body approach that supports emotional processing and nervous system regulation when stress responses feel persistent.

Even though EMDR therapy is one of the most well-researched treatments for trauma and anxiety, it’s often misunderstood. Common myths can make EMDR seem intimidating, when the reality is much more supportive and approachable.
