EMDR Cognition Cards

The EMDR Cognition Cards are a practical, hands-on resource designed for therapists and clients working through EMDR therapy. Based on the well-known list of negative and positive cognitions created by Francine Shapiro, the cards bring these concepts into a more interactive format. This deck allows clients to easily identify and explore their negative core beliefs and replace them with positive, adaptive thoughts, all while enhancing the therapeutic process. The cards are ideal for helping individuals recognize, challenge, and shift cognitive distortions in a tangible, engaging way.

Each card features two sides:

• Negative Cognition Side: Light blue background with the negative thought displayed.
• Positive Cognition Side: Light yellow background with the corresponding positive cognition.

This deck includes 50 cards, covering a wide range of common negative beliefs related to various trauma experiences. It is an ideal tool for assisting clients in recognizing and shifting deeply held, limiting beliefs.
