EMDR therapy for stress symptoms after the Silivri earthquake
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether EMDR therapy – a type of counseling that uses eye movements to help process trauma – can reduce stress symptoms and change brain activity in people affected by the Silivri earthquake.
