virtualemdr.com Reviews 15

Echoing what other reviewers here and elsewhere have said about this company’s covert billing practices. I used the service a few times but was charged for 14 months at the highest rate without ever receiving a receipt for charges or a renewal notification. They also claim to be the ‘#1 online EMDR program’ and ‘the world’s #1 EMDR provider’ but were unable to provide any substantiation for those statements when asked. Buyer beware. UPDATE: After posting this review, the company contacted me and asked if I would change or remove my review in exchange for money. Trying to influence a consumer review with a financial offer is unethical, and consumers should be aware this happened.

AutoRenewal without notice nor refund. I tried the service less than 10 times probably and paid them for a full year for that. To my surprise, when I reached out to get a refund after getting the notification of autorenewal for another year, they referred me to their terms of service. These are greedy people, who hide behind these technicalities, to take money away from actual human in need of help. It's just wrong, very wrong. And you Jeff Tejcek, Founder, and all those unscrupulous hypocrites should be ASHAMED.

EDIT after Jeff's reply: Yes, I did email you, as described before. Yes, I'm not using my real name, because you guys are not trustworthy. Finally, you don't address my main point and refute that your policy is as I said, or as your customer service rep claimed. More smoke and mirrors.

Simple, user friendly and effective

Initially had issues with the program loading, however, contacted the company, they found the coding issue and resolved it. Completed one session, have never done EMDR before. Found the program very user friendly and the first session extremely helpful. Can't wait to see the difference it will make with continued sessions. Wonderful for people who don't have access to specialists where they live.

It has actually changed my life, I only signed up for the trial after being recommended EMDR, in person by a neighbour. However, my fixed term contract with work, had just ended and I wasn’t in a financial position to afford in person counselling, so thought I’d try the trial of this and the change is unbelievable.

I had severe PTSD following an attack by a dog that weighed more than I did! The park felt like the scariest place in the world before I tried this. I am continuing to improve, and today I felt like a different person. I’ve not been able to enjoy a walk in 2 years and today was such a pleasure. I’ve just found a new job so will subscribe again after payday.

I can’t thank you enough.

I have been using EMDR for over 15 years, in various settings (both with a therapist and by using other, self-guided experiences. I found Virtual EMDR in 2024 and used it for 30 days. I was very impressed with the ability to change settings and keep a record of my experiences, directly on the web site. The interface is very user friendly and intuitive, even if you have never had a session. I was able to attack issues that I wanted to work on, as well as those that were released from deep within my psyche (by virtue of the intense experience provided and how it allows the brain to open itself to connected trauma). I am so grateful for the various ways that Virtual EMDR was able to help me with anxiety and CPTSD (and PTSD) from across my lifetime. It was life-changing and a service that I intend to harness for personal growth throughout the next few years of my life. I feel better, emotionally, than I have in a very long time, due to trauma I have been able to release using Virtual EMDR. Finally, the value of multiple sessions for a very reasonable price is incredible. The monthly cost to use this service would not even cover one session with my old EMDR therapist. SO very grateful for this!

I used Virtual EMDR myself to manage my anxiety symptoms. The software was easy to use and the sessions were well-structured. After a few sessions, I already noticed an improvement in my symptoms.

Benefits of Virtual EMDR:
- Flexible and location-independent
- Cost-effective
- Effective for anxiety and trauma

Conclusion:
Virtual EMDR is a recommendable option for anyone who wants to improve their mental health.

I had heard about EMDR from a friend who had experienced great results, and as I was struggling with PTSD & brain fog I wanted to give it a try. However, the only available therapists in my area had long waiting lists and a series of treatments would have been prohibitively expensive. Then I came across the Virtual EMDR online program and thought I’d give it a try as there was a free 3 day trial. It has honestly worked wonders for me. After the initial 3 day trial I was already feeling the difference and so I signed up for a 3 month subscription. Aside from the cost being much more affordable, I was able to access the program as and when I needed it, and it fit in really nicely to my schedule. After a while of using it, I had more mental clarity, could see clearly the source issues behind the things that were bothering me, and felt more calm, confident and focused. I also feel a lot happier overall and things that had been bothering me didn’t seem to matter so much any more. I have been using the program for about 8 months now and feel like I’ve had so many benefits, too many to list here. I would encourage everyone to try it, as we often don’t even realise the negative programs running in our brain, and this process somehow cleared the fog for me and made me much more self aware. Highly recommended.

I love this program and use it often, at least a few times per week to help me deal with anxiety. I use the EMDR with headphones on and thinking about (this is called process on the website) the stuff that I am scared of that's coming up in my day or the next few days. I then use the EMDR a second time for a few minutes and think about how I want to feel instead of anxiety. It works really well for me this way.

I had a friend who believed in this method for her adopted children. During the shut down I became more and more depressed. When trying to re-enter life, I found I had so much social anxiety I had a hard time leaving the house. I used virtual emdr several times a day and "strangely" started to feel more confident. I'm sure I'll need to use it again now and again and I'm glad to know it's just a click away.

In the wake of enduring the profound challenges of CPTSD and the subsequent onset of full-blown PTSD, my journey to recovery took an unexpected turn. As a seasoned psychotherapist, I navigated traditional methods, from psychotherapy to alternative treatments like acupuncture, homeopathy, and EFT, yet the persistent hyper-vigilance remained an unyielding force. Faced with bursts of anger and an utter lack of emotional regulation, I found myself in a state of helplessness and despair.

Despite having exhausted numerous avenues, the elusive solution seemed to materialize in the form of virtual EMDR. Unable to secure a therapist for traditional EMDR, I turned to this innovative approach. Following the self-help protocol, a remarkable transformation occurred within a mere week—I regained a sense of self. This program is not just a recommendation; it's a revelation for both self-help enthusiasts and fellow therapists. Its simplicity, efficacy, and accessibility make it a groundbreaking tool that transcends the boundaries of traditional therapy.

As I delve into addressing traumas unresolved over two decades of therapy, virtual EMDR stands as an invaluable asset, catalyzing healing in ways previously unimaginable. It's a testament to the transformative power of this tool, reshaping the landscape of mental health practices for practitioners and seekers alike.

Fantastic program, work at your own pace, and excellent customer support.

VirtualEMDR is a godsend that is helping me turn around suicidal depression, debilitating anxiety, and work through a lifetime of traumas. I saw a review that said VirtualEMDR is saving lives; and that is no exaggeration. It’s absolutely true, and there are no words to express the gratitude I feel for that. But it runs deeper than that. 

I’m a loving partner, a father of 3, a brother/uncle/nephew/cousin/friend, a work colleague at a Children’s Hospital, a yogi-in-training…indeed my life touches hundreds or thousands of others. By helping me survive and even learn to thrive, my entire web of influence (which is profound for each and every person, living or not) reaps the benefits. Thank you on behalf of me, my kids, my partner, and everyone else who benefits from me showing up with authenticity and wholeness. 

The least I can do is write this review and encourage others to use this fantastic resource.

This was very helpful to me and it is great to find a company that can help you benefit from EMDR at home.

Virtual EMDR is a great online program and tool for anyone dealing with emotional or mental health problems stemming from trauma. I used it for anxiety dealing with a traumatic event in childhood. After several sessions my anxiety lessened considerably and I was feeling much better. It’s easy to follow to get the most out of the program and address any issues facing you. Definitely worth doing to get you back to feeling good again.
