How to find an EMDR therapist in the United Kingdom

The EMDR Association UK map lists practitioners accredited with EMDR UK and EMDR Europe. Its filters cover online versus face-to-face care, location and practitioner type.

Important limitation

This is not a government register, and inclusion does not replace the professional licence or registration required in the jurisdiction. EMDR Match does not individually recommend or validate its members.
