EMDR - Effective therapy for healing trauma in Nice and the French Riviera

Discover EMDR Therapy: A Revolutionary Approach to Healing Trauma
 

EMDR is a proven and innovative method for treating trauma and improving quality of life. I'm Juliette Desvignes, a certified EMDR practitioner, and I'm here to help you on your way to emotional healing and well-being.

​

What is EMDR?

​

EMDR is a therapy based on eye movements or other bilateral stimulations to help individuals process and integrate traumatic memories in a more adaptive way. Developed by Dr Francine Shapiro in the 1980s, the method is based on the idea that trauma can disrupt the brain's natural information processing system. By stimulating both sides of the brain, EMDR helps to ‘reprocess’ these disruptive memories, reducing their emotional impact and facilitating their integration.

 

What is EMDR used for?

​

EMDR is used to treat a variety of psychological problems, including :
 

• Trauma: Whether it's trauma related to single events (accidents, assaults, natural disasters) or complex trauma (repeated abuse, neglect), EMDR is effective in alleviating it.

• Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): Recognised as the treatment of choice for PTSD, EMDR helps relieve symptoms such as flashbacks, nightmares and hypervigilance.

• Anxiety and depression: By working on the memories that cause anxiety and depression, EMDR can bring significant relief.

• Phobias and fears: EMDR helps to reprogram disproportionate fear responses.

• Grief and loss: Facilitates the grieving process by helping to process intense emotions and painful memories.

 

The benefits of EMDR therapy

​

The benefits of EMDR are numerous and can significantly transform your life:

 

• Rapid Symptom Reduction: Many patients experience significant symptom relief within the first few sessions.

• Lasting Results: EMDR offers lasting solutions by enabling deep resolution of trauma.

• Suitable for everyone: EMDR can be used on adults, adolescents and children.

• Personal fulfilment: As well as relieving symptoms, EMDR can improve self-esteem, confidence and general well-being.

 

As a certified EMDR practitioner, I am committed to providing a safe, empathetic and professional space for each client. My personalised approach ensures that each session is tailored to your specific needs, helping you to regain a sense of peace and normality.

Please note: Hypnotherapy and EMDR, even when practiced by a therapist, are in no way substitutes for medicine. All medical conditions must be followed up by medical and/or therapeutic professionals. Furthermore, I am not a psychiatrist. Consequently, I do not make therapeutic diagnoses, and no medication should be modified or stopped without the advice of the medical staff who prescribed it. However, I am trained in psychopathology and psychotraumatology. In other words, I'm able to detect the symptoms of the most common psychological and personality disorders. And above all, I'm able to use the tools I've developed to help you resolve the emotional distress that is the cause of these disorders.
