View profileEMDR therapy, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a structured psychotherapy often used to help people process traumatic or distressing memories. It is mainly known for its use in trauma and PTSD. It may also support people who experience panic, anxiety, intrusive images, nightmares, avoidance, shame, guilt or strong body reactions linked to past events.
EMDR does not erase memories. Instead, it aims to reduce the emotional charge connected to them. The person may still remember what happened, but the memory may feel less vivid, less threatening and less present in daily life. This can help the nervous system respond with more stability.
Sessions usually begin with assessment and preparation. The therapist explores the person’s history, current symptoms, goals and support system. They also check whether the person feels stable enough to work with difficult material. Before processing starts, the therapist often teaches grounding and self-calming tools.
During EMDR processing, the client briefly focuses on a target memory, image, belief or body sensation. At the same time, the therapist uses bilateral stimulation. This often involves guided eye movements, but it may also involve taps or sounds. The client does not need to describe every detail of the event. The therapist helps the person notice what comes up and move through the process safely.
EMDR may be helpful after a single traumatic event, such as an accident, assault, medical trauma or sudden loss. It may also support people with repeated or complex trauma, including childhood trauma, emotional abuse, neglect or relational trauma. In these cases, the work may need more preparation and a slower pace.
Some therapists integrate EMDR with Trauma-Focused CBT, CBT, Somatic Therapy, mindfulness or attachment-informed work. The approach should fit the person’s needs, symptoms and level of safety.
EMDR therapy does not replace emergency support, diagnosis or medical care. It offers a structured way to process traumatic memories, reduce emotional distress and support recovery with a trained professional.
In Nice, many people prefer to start EMDR with a professional who understands international life and can work in their own language. After preparation and stabilisation, sessions focus on specific memories while you follow eye movements, taps or sounds guided by the therapist.
Every profile states whether the therapist sees clients in Nice, online or both, as well as the languages and the fee. In France, sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly; under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed. Before booking, each profile shows the therapist’s approach, languages, session format and fee.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured psychotherapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories. While briefly recalling a memory, you follow bilateral stimulation such as eye movements or tapping, so that the memory gradually loses its emotional charge. It is widely used for trauma and PTSD.
EMDR Therapy is often used for concerns such as Anxiety, Complex PTSD (C-PTSD), Panic attacks, Phobias, PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder), and Sexual trauma recovery.
The therapy page also shows which therapists on MIT currently offer this approach.
A first session usually focuses on understanding what brings you to therapy, what you want to change, and whether the therapist’s style feels like a good fit.
You do not need to prepare anything perfect in advance. It is normal to start with questions, uncertainty, or mixed feelings.
The number of sessions depends on the history, the current level of safety, and the goals of treatment. Some people do short focused work; others benefit from a longer process.
Availability depends on the therapist. On MIT, you can check the therapist cards and profile pages to see whether online sessions are offered.
Fees vary by therapist. When no live therapist prices are available yet, the usual range for this therapy is around €90–€170 per session.
Start by reading the therapist’s profile, experience, languages, online/in-person availability, and approach. Then check whether the person works with the kind of issue you want help with.
A good fit is often about both expertise and how safe, understood, and comfortable you feel with the therapist.

Sessions with psychologists and psychotherapists are mostly paid directly. Under the “Mon soutien psy” scheme, a limited number of sessions with participating psychologists can be partly reimbursed, and many mutuelles or expat insurances refund part of private sessions: check your contract. Therapists give you an invoice you can submit.

The indicative ranges shown on this site are around €80 to €180 per session for most individual approaches, €120 to €220 for couples or family sessions and €70 to €130 for coaching, career counselling or parenting support. A session usually lasts 50 to 60 minutes, weekly or every two weeks.
Therapy cannot respond to emergencies. If you or someone near you is in danger, call 112 (European emergency number) or 15 (SAMU, medical emergencies). For suicidal thoughts, the national prevention line 3114 is free and available 24/7.
Start with what matters most to you: the language, the topic you want to work on, the approach, in-person or online sessions and the fee, all shown on the profiles. If you would like help choosing, tell us what you need and we will suggest therapists. Your impression after the first session counts too.
