EMDR 101

In ‘custom’ could you add an option to each stage for varying time lengths. Currently you select one timespan eg 1 min and that applies to each stage. Some stages need the user to press continue when they are ready ie unlimited timespan. For the assessment stage can you add a scale for the user to select their intensity of feelings from? Can you allow a second scale to be added as well. At the end you’ve added a conclusion about the balloon/ breathing. Can you allow this to be edited or removed. I wrote my own conclusion so I was surprised when this invisible conclusion was read out as there was no indication it would be added. Thank you for your app!

I’ve had it done with professional before, many years ago and then two years ago (for different things) Just tried this and it does exactly the same, but without costing £150 and hour Thank you

I’ve been treated for CPTSD with EMDR before and this is an excellent alternative that I can do myself at home. I’ve looked at several apps and this is the only one that offers a process and setup similar to what I received in person so I trust that it is going to be just as rewarding in the long term. I’ve already used it several times and it produces similar results. I recommend experiencing EMDR with a practitioner first so you know what’s involved and you have the recovery support but otherwise this is a great tool.

I can’t say if the app works well or not because it won’t open. Yes, I am running the latest version of iOS and have tried restarting my phone. I wish I could get my money back.

This is a wonderful, customizable app for EMDR therapy. It’s simple to use, too. The only thing that I would suggest is either more time for the instructions, or a paused screen when instructions are given, so users can click when they are ready.

I was expecting way more options for the price.

I was just looking for a dot that goes back and forth, so this does the job for me. I like that it is somewhat customizable with size, color and speed, and would like it even better if it was customizable with different patterns and directions, like vertical and diagonal. But as is, it was well worth the reasonable price.

This app is fantastic for home practice. It has a guided EMDR session all setup but you can also set three custom sessions where you can type the questions you want to ask yourself. I set up the target memory first in my mind while looking in the mirror than j start my custom session using the modified EMDR procedure steps from a therapists guide to EMDR to walk me through the desensitization. I really like how you can slow down the voice reading the questions to you and customize the size and speed of the ball. The only reason I am giving this app 4 instead of 5 stars is because the digital bilateral beep that will sound in one ear and than the other with headphones on is so annoying that I have to turn off the option to have it on. It would have been great to have a few more choices on sound options or at least one that didn't sound like a fire alarm chirp. It's still the best EMDR app out there for home use since you can actually set up the questions so you don't have to think about what you are asking yourself. The other expensive apps have different backgrounds and objects for eye cues which don't really matter and better sound but nothing to guide you through the questions.

I love this app. I had heard positive things about eye movement therapy and I love having a tool in hand to benefit the most from therapy.

EMDR therapy works great for me. Unfortunately, this app isn't much help. The sound on an iPad doesn't work. I emailed customer support and received no response.
