Abstract

Due to the current coronavirus measures the majority of treatments in mental healthcare must take place remotely. We expect that an online application which combines Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) as well as exposure therapy, will offer an appropriate (and possibly even better) alternative treatment for the current online care.
