What to expect from online EMDR

An online EMDR therapy session is similar to an in-person session in terms of structure and goals but is conducted virtually via a secure video conferencing platform. Here’s what you can expect from an online session:

The therapist may start with a brief check-in to see how you’re feeling and to ensure everything is set up properly for the session.

Explorations: During the assessment, you will likely discuss your history, symptoms, and goals with your therapist.

Bilateral Stimulation (BLS): The core of EMDR therapy involves bilateral stimulation to help process distressing memories.

Your therapist will closely monitor your emotional state and provide support and grounding techniques if needed.

Debriefing: Toward the end of the session, the therapist will help you return to a calm and stable state.

“Absolutely fabulous! I really was impressed with Dr. Thomas's depth of knowledge and her willingness to share that knowledge, too. She understood my symptoms and came up with a superb set of therapy and intervention to help me feel better. I am so confident this'll work. She was outstanding.”

”Dr. Zaager was pleasant and thorough. He explained the prescribed therapy very well and answered all questions.”

—Doctor On Demand Patient

“I want to thank you for all that you helped me with. It’s been a hard year after my son passed (and) I thought I could work through it by myself. Then I discovered Doctor On Demand…I had heard about online therapy (but) it wasn't till I experienced it for myself. I was completely unaware of the most amazing session of my life. I don't know where I would have been without it.”
