EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) is a recognised therapy for trauma and PTSD. It uses bilateral stimulation — such as following a moving dot with your eyes — while you briefly hold a difficult memory in mind, helping your brain process it so it feels less overwhelming.
On WebcamTherapy, EMDR therapists can run bilateral stimulation directly on your screen during the session.
Who online therapy can help
Online therapy is especially useful if getting to an appointment is hard: if you live rurally, have a health condition or mobility needs, find it difficult to leave home because of anxiety, or work shifts or care for someone. All you need is a private space and a phone, tablet or computer with a camera.
How sessions work
Choose a therapist, pick a time that suits you, and pay securely in advance. At your session time, join from your account in your web browser — there is nothing to install. Sessions are one-to-one, private and never recorded.
Every therapist is registered
Every therapist on WebcamTherapy is registered with the BACP, NCPS or UKCP. We check each registration by hand against the public register before a profile goes live, and re-check regularly.
