About EMDR Singapore
The EMDR Association of Singapore was set up in 2010 to expand the awareness of the protocols first developed by Francine Shapiro in 1987. The association continues its focus on educating mental health professionals on this widely researched and highly useful psychotherapeutic tool by organizing training and certification of EMDR Practitioners.
EMDR is an empirically-researched psychotherapy approach used to treat different degrees of trauma. It is considered an integrative approach because EMDR incorporates elements of various psychotherapies.
EMDR is being utilized around the world to help treat a variety of conditions which cause stress and emotional distress to clients. While the use of EMDR in Singapore is still considered in its "budding phase", since the founding of this organization, many mental health
professionals as well as hospital staff have undergone training and
certification. EMDR Singapore's mission is to:
- expand awareness of this highly effective treatment tool
- create a network of EMDR professionals locally
- educate the public about EMDR's treatment efficacy
