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withdrawn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
