If you've found yourself in the midst of trauma or past traumatic memories, I empathize with you and know how hard that can be. I encourage you to try something you may not have tried before: EMDR treatment. Clients on my caseload are frequently referred to me because of their need for a different type of therapy... something in addition to talk therapy with great scientific success rates. That's where EMDR comes in. It’s most renowned for addressing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, however, its applications extend to many other mental concerns as well.

“It’s fine. I’m fine. Everything’s fine.” You can’t put it into words or don’t know who to confide in, so that’s what you portray. But that’s NOT what’s going on inside. You disconnect to survive. But, if any of the following sounds like you, that skill is wearing out: your moods are all over the place; your sleep is off; you’ve been sick or in pain; memory and focus are down; work is just stupid, and you always seem to be in conflict with someone. Plus, if you’re expecting, now you have another generation and the pending birth blowing up your list of concerns! You can’t help thinking, "This is not how my life is supposed to be."
