I’ve done EMDR. It was very helpful for desensitization of past trauma.

I had several years of EMDR therapy. I’m here to answer any questions you have. To be honest, at first I thought it “undid” me in the same way trauma did, but after years of feeling depressed and sad, something finally changed. Like I saw the light at the end of a dark, long tunnel. And now I’m basically a workaholic. I have a job and my own business working with animals. All the things my therapist and I talked about are coming to fruition. Good luck and let me know if you want to chat.

Hi! Currently I’m wondering how much it’s doing for me as I don’t seem to have the life changing experience I see others talk about. I’ve been doing it for over a year now and have never gotten through the 8 phases due to a lot of complex trauma and the need for preparation. Just wondering if I’m doing something wrong.

hey! Just wondering what do you mean by course of EMDR? Was it self- led or did an EMDR therapist do it with you? I’m curious because I’m finding it really hard to find EMDR therapists in network with my insurance but I’ve been wanting to do EMDR for years now… thinking to just learn about it / start on my own and go from there

I'm getting back into EMDR therapy hopefully if the lady at my mental health place that they've signed me up with does it I did request it, it's been the best therapy in my life but I've just restarted therapy so I'm not quite in it at the moment but I love to sing its praises.

I just got out of therapy and that's something we supposed to do today. But we didn't have enough time because other things came up.
