How VSDT®
works®
VSDT® integrates structured eye movements with targeted schematic memory recall to directly address trauma-related representations. Refined over decades and supported by scientific research and clinical trials, it is increasingly recognised as a clinically robust and effective trauma-focused intervention.
Trauma
Exposure to potentially traumatic events is a common feature of the human experience. Epidemiological data indicate that approximately one in three individuals who directly experience or witness a traumatic event will go on to develop post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) or clinically significant post-traumatic stress symptoms (PTSS).
Understanding the distinctions between normative stress responses and trauma-related disorders is essential in appreciating the profound psychological, cognitive, and physiological impact that unresolved trauma can exert.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a well-established, evidence-based psychological treatment for trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It is widely recognised within international clinical guidelines and has been extensively researched across diverse trauma populations.​
Given EMDR’s status as a leading trauma therapy, VSDT® was scientifically examined in direct comparison with EMDR within controlled research settings. This comparative framework was intentionally selected to evaluate VSDT® against an established gold-standard treatment, ensuring that its efficacy, mechanisms, and clinical impact were assessed to the highest evidential standards.
