Join us for Seed Talks: The Psychology of EMDR Therapy – Rewiring Memories with Jordan McPhail.
Why do some memories fade while others stick with us? How can we explain intrusive and painfully vivid memories? From childhood traumas to breakups and burnout, our minds sometimes struggle to file things away properly. Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based therapy that helps the brain process and rewire these distressing memories.
Join accredited EMDR therapist, Jordan McPhail, in breaking down how EMDR works, why it is so effective, and what happens during a session. This talk will explore the science behind memory and trauma, and why EMDR is being used to treat anxiety, PTSD, phobias, and more. Whether you are curious about new ways to support your mental health, or just fascinated by the mind, this talk will deepen your understanding of the healing process and what might be possible for you.
Doors open at 7pm, talk starts at 7.30pm – come down early to grab a good seat!
