TRAUMA

Traumatic events can have a dramatically negative impact on our lives.

​

Following a trauma, we can become:
 

  • anxious

  • irritable

  • angry

  • depressed

  • jumpy

  • withdrawn

  • avoidant

​

and we can be plagued by:

​

  • nightmares

  • flashbacks (re-experiencing the trauma in the present)

  • difficulty sleeping

  • poor concentration

  • emotional negativity

  • emotional numbness

  • guilt, shame, and a  sense of blame

 

The good news is that most traumas can be treated in a relatively short time. 

 

... as long as very specific treatment methods are used.

 

And one of the most successful of those methods is EMDR, a method that has grown and developed enormously since I first began to use it in 1994.

​

EMDR is quick and effective and the experience of EMDR is considerably less intrusive and much less unpleasant than any talking therapy.

​

Some of the more common traumas that I work with include:
 

  • muggings and armed robberies

  • rapes, date rapes, attempted rapes

  • terminations

  • Traumatic ends to relationships

  • motor vehicle accidents

  • violent assaults or the witnessing of extreme violence 

  • major surgery

  • finding that one has a severe illness 

  • near-death experiences 

  • the unexpected death of someone close

  • and many others
