EMDR therapy

I've just started EMDR therapy a day ago. I'm a bit worried about it because the therapist said something about looking at eye movements. I'm autistic though. I don't look at people directly in the eye. The therapist also mentioned something about use of sound but I'm sound sensitive. So I'm just wondering how that kind of therapy will even work, given my limitations. I wondered if anyone else has had experience with this kind of therapy and whether their autism was triggered by it?
