EMDR was originally created for PTSD , Trauma and anxiety. It is now used to treat depression. This research study shoes the results of using EMDR( Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy for depression in an inpatient setting.

16 patients who were hospitalized for depression were treated with EMDR and compared to a control group with the same diagnosis and degree of depression who were not treated with this. The results showed that 68% of the EMDR group showed full remission at the end of treatment.
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy to treat depression because memories that are traumatic or even just negative form the basis for your self esteem. For example memories of being slighted, neglected, or criticized form references in the mind which create self fulfilling prophesies. If we feel unworthy of a partner or a job that we want we will create not getting that.
To change your self concept you have to go in and change your perceptions of these memories. EMDR and EFT are excellent ways of doing that.
