Dr Justin Havens, a senior and well respected EMDR Consultant has developed a technique for dealing with nightmares, night terrors and other disturbing dreams. His technique can be used whether or not you remember your dream.
It is a straightforward technique that does not need you to go over your dream, analyse it or even remember it for the technique to be effective.
Follow the link below to watch a short video that Dr Havens has put together about how to use his technique.
