Life is full of surprises - some more difficult than others.
Psychological trauma is a deeply distressing and overwhelming experience that can have lasting effects. Trauma can profoundly impact your emotional well-being, relationships, self-esteem, and overall quality of life. It can disrupt your sense of safety and security, causing you to engage in unhealthy behaviors to alleviate the distress. Trauma therapy, such as EMDR, is essential for helping you to process your experiences, heal, and regain control over your life.

Common questions about EMDR therapy
-
While many people are able to benefit from EMDR, there are some situations in which EMDR is more harmful than helpful. I will thoroughly assess your symptoms and develop a treatment plan to help you safely achieve your goals.

That depends on the complexity of the trauma, as well as your unique response to the EMDR process. Some people feel better within a few sessions, while others may spend months working through the harm they’ve experienced.

I’m surprised that this is one of the most common questions I encounter with EMDR. It seems that most of my clients are afraid of “failing” in a sense. While I can’t offer a 100% guarantee, I can say that I’ve been doing this therapy since 2017 and I have yet to encounter a client who has tried it and not achieved symptomatic relief.
