I never thought I'd be able to overcome my crippling phobia of insects or my insomnia that had haunted me since childhood. But through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, I found a powerful treatment that has helped me heal from complex PTSD and neutralize my triggers. Join me in this deeply personal episode as I share my journey of healing and self-discovery.
From being held captive in my own room due to the fear of cockroaches to the panic that overcame me when I had to pack up my entire life within 30 minutes, I recount the traumas that had left me feeling paralyzed. Discover how EMDR therapy allowed me to uncover repressed memories tied to a bathroom stall experience and helped me understand the root of my fears and anxieties. Through these revelations, I have found a newfound freedom from the grip of PTSD.
If you or someone you know is struggling with trauma, I cannot stress enough the importance of mental health and the power of EMDR therapy in treating PTSD. By sharing my experiences, I hope to provide encouragement and guidance for those in need. Find a trained EMDR therapist, trust the process, and begin your journey towards healing and self-discovery.
