Surviving and Thriving through Trauma

This week’s EMDR work has begun with sessions about trauma from abuse.  In one case, a client was verbally abused from an older brother who was a bully.  She realized how significant that relationship was to her inner negative self-talk.  She left feeling very tired from the session, as is often the case.  This is evidence of how hard her brain and emotions worked in that hour.  I’m eager to hear how her self-talk has changed toward positive statements.
