Partners Group EMDR Recovery

The rationale of group EMDR is similar to use for survivors of terrorism. Survivors of Sex/Porn/Love addiction disclosure, want to be seen as survivors. Allow them to be seen, noticed and helped. Enabled to undermine Shame ("hiddenness") - to be open (without being judged), whilst coping with victimisation, consequences, isolation, alienation, diminished feelings & hopelessness from the trauma. Group therapy works for terrorism survivors. Female partners are even more vulnerable to being & feeling ostracised, blamed & judged by the larger society, for their predicament. Bonding, support & "Coming out" of hiding is offered - with friendships from similar others, toward rebuilding trust.
