Francine Shapiro developed Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in 1987.  The goal of EMDR therapy is to process traumatic memories and other disturbing life experiences and to bring them to resolution by replacing trauma memories with positive, healthy ones.  The effectiveness of EMDR therapy has been well established as the result of randomized controlled studies. EMDR has been used to effectively treat a wide range of mental health problems, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, and phobias.
