EMDR Explanation Scripts for Diverse Minds Therapist Tools
Consent-based, neurodivergent-affirming EMDR explanation scripts you can actually use.
 
Explaining EMDR shouldn’t require a perfect script — but many therapists feel pressure to get it “just right.”
 
This resource offers adaptable explanation scripts for a wide range of client needs, including science-minded clients, metaphor-oriented clients, neurodivergent clients, and clients with strong protective responses or fear of overwhelm.
 
You’ll also find scripts for common moments of uncertainty:
  • “Will this make me relive everything?”
  • “Nothing is happening.”
  • When pacing, pausing, or stopping is clinically indicated
The language is intentionally flexible, consent-based, and nervous-system-informed — designed to reduce both client and therapist anxiety.
 
Best for:
Therapists who over-explain, struggle with consent language, want more ways to discuss EMDR with different clients, or want clearer, safer ways to introduce EMDR.
