Self-guided EMDR — with an autopilot through the 8 phases

The autopilot runs an EMDR session without a therapist: it helps you word the target, guides you by voice, starts the sets and keeps track of the scales. Suitable for mild to moderate distress.

Who self-guided EMDR is for — and who it is not

Working on your own is for mild to moderate distress. Severe conditions need a professional who can see you and stop the process.

Suitable

  • An unpleasant memory that keeps coming up and spoiling your mood
  • Anxiety before an event: an exam, a presentation, a conversation
  • Resentment, awkwardness, a situation that feels “stuck”
  • Consolidating results between sessions with a therapist

Only with a professional

  • PTSD, severe or complex trauma
  • Dissociation: gaps in memory, a feeling of unreality
  • Epilepsy
  • Psychosis
  • Pregnancy — without your doctor's approval
  • Suicidal thoughts

How an autopilot session goes

The autopilot follows the same 8 phases as a therapist. The first phase, history taking, is replaced by questions about contraindications and choosing a topic; the eighth, reevaluation, happens at the start of your next session.

  1. Preparation

    The guide explains what will happen and helps you create a safe place: an image you can return to at any moment.

  2. The target, with an AI assistant

    In a dialogue you word five things: the memory (a picture), a negative belief about yourself, the positive belief you would like, the emotion, and where you feel it in your body. You rate SUD and VoC.

  3. Sets of eye movement

    The guide starts a set of the dot, then asks what you noticed and asks for your SUD. Sets repeat until SUD drops to 0–1.

  4. The positive belief

    The thought you want to hold about yourself is strengthened with sets until VoC reaches 6–7.

  5. Body scan

    You check whether any tension remains. If so, a few more sets.

  6. Closure

    The container exercise for anything that has not finished processing, then stabilization. The session is saved to your diary with scales from before and after.

The Stop button is on screen for the whole session. It stops the set, and the guide offers a stabilization exercise or a return to your safe place. You can continue later — or close the session with the container.

If you start to feel really unwell, call your local emergency number (112 in Europe, 911 in the US).

The guide's voice and tokens

The guide reads the instructions aloud so you do not have to read during a set. There are three kinds of voice:

  • Neural voice — a natural-sounding guide. Standard protocol phrases are pre-recorded and free; only personalized phrases, which contain your own wording, are paid.
  • Browser voice — free, and always works when you have no tokens.
  • Your therapist's voice — if they have recorded a voice pack, connect it with a code.

Frequently asked questions

Does the autopilot replace psychotherapy?

No. It is a self-help tool based on the EMDR protocol for mild to moderate distress. It does not diagnose anything and does not replace working with a professional. TetaLink is not a medical service.

What should I do if I feel unwell during a session?

Press Stop: the set stops and the guide offers a stabilization exercise or your safe place. If you do not feel better, call your local emergency number (112 in Europe, 911 in the US).

Do I need headphones?

They are recommended: in headphones the sound alternates between left and right and strengthens the stimulation. A session also works without them, using the movement of the dot.

How long does a session last?

It depends on the target and on how many sets are needed. You can close a session at any moment with the container exercise. It is best to work on one target per session.

What happens after the free day?

Access continues on the Autopilot subscription: ₽1,000 per month. Auto-renewal can be turned off in your account with one button.
