Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT)

Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) is an effective therapy for anxiety, anger, depression, emotional blocks, limiting beliefs, phobias, unwanted habits and trauma. It can create rapid change, allowing you to free yourself and move forward from the past and into a healthier, happier future. 

​

IEMT was developed by Andre T Austin and is used in many countries around the world. Eye movements and careful questioning are employed to rapidly process and discharge uncomfortable reactions to memories and change unhelpful beliefs and emotional imprints (i.e. how we have learned to feel or be a certain way). Moving the eyes along different axes whilst focussing on the memory or emotion accesses the different parts of the brain where those memories and emotions are stored. This, when carried out in a calm, relaxed state in a safe space, prevents the previous overwhelm in the brain, freeing it to process the memories and change the emotional attachment to them. This allows you to step out of the loop and into a new way of being, free of the distress and unhelpful reactions. 

​

One of the benefits many of my clients have found helpful about IEMT is that they don’t have to talk out loud about what the problem is as long as they can connect to the feeling of the emotions which are causing distress.
