EMDR therapy for children

Children can face a range of emotional challenges, from nightmares and separation anxiety to school stress and bullying. These experiences, if left unaddressed, can deeply affect their development and well-being. EMDR therapy offers a gentle yet powerful way to help children process these difficulties, turning overwhelming emotions into manageable ones. At Jen Tays EMDR, we understand the unique needs of young minds and provide a safe, nurturing environment for them to heal. Whether it’s trauma from a specific event or ongoing anxiety, our approach is designed to help children regain their confidence and emotional balance.

How EMDR therapy benefits children

EMDR therapy is a structured approach that helps children process and overcome traumatic memories and anxiety. By using age-appropriate techniques, we guide young clients through their emotions, enabling them to build resilience and develop healthier coping mechanisms. This therapy is particularly effective for issues such as nightmares, separation anxiety, school-related stress, and bullying. With a focus on creating a supportive and understanding space, EMDR therapy empowers children to face their challenges and move forward with confidence and clarity.

A tailored approach to therapy

Every child is unique, and so are their experiences and needs. That’s why we take the time to understand each young client’s situation before tailoring our EMDR approach. From addressing specific traumas to managing generalised anxiety, our therapy sessions are designed to be as individual as the children we work with. We also provide guidance for parents, helping them support their child’s journey towards emotional well-being. With a focus on creating a safe and nurturing environment, we aim to make therapy a positive and transformative experience for every child.

"I came to Jen at a time of a personal crisis when a deep emotional trauma bottled inside me for many years came to surface. I could not see how it was possible to ever let go of it and feel better. The weeks of working with Jen transformed my life. She found a way to show me that there can be hope. And then carefully nourished that hope and gave me tools and insights to feel continuously better. She used different methods in different sessions so I was able to process the trauma and the resulting beliefs that ruled my life from different angles and using different tools. While working with Jen, I discovered new helpful beliefs and positive feelings and I am very grateful to her."
