# EMDR During the Pandemic

June 21, 2020Writings and Talks

EMDR therapy is a psychotherapy approach with proven effectiveness for many conditions and syndromes, particularly post-traumatic stress disorder. Especially when working with trauma, we often see that other people's attitudes and behaviors after a traumatic event affect individuals as much as the event itself. Interestingly, the traumas we focus on with EMDR in psychotherapy may concern other people's reactions and attitudes following an illness rather than the illness itself and the anxieties associated with it. To reduce the occurrence of depression, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and other psychiatric disorders and psychological problems, it is essential to remember that measures to reduce social stigma and othering are at least as important as psychotherapy research and practice.
