EMDR Trauma Counseling Dublin, CA
EMDR Trauma Therapy in Dublin, CA
You are going about your life, feeling fine, when suddenly it’s like you’ve entered a time machine. When that thing from the past gets triggered, you suddenly lose your ability to cope. You’ve hoped that avoiding it and pretending it doesn’t impact you would make it go away.
But you’ve had enough. It’s time to invest in healing, even though you’re terrified to face your past.
Our past experiences inform our experiences of the here & now. When we experience trauma (anything that overrides our ability to cope in the moment), half of our brain goes offline. These experiences then get linked with a negative belief about ourselves or the world, like I’m not safe, I should have done better, it’s all my fault, I’m not good enough, I’m weak, etc.. In a hard moment, we default to these thoughts.
You don’t have to stay stuck there.
You are more than what has happened in your past.
I utilize EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) to release the emotional charge connected to these memories. EMDR is widely researched and effective in reducing the effects of trauma. It’s like therapy magic. Often my clients and I laugh together at the end of an EMDR session about how much relief they feel.
You can find healing.
