My San Diego client working to overcome his alcohol and sex addictions, which were his “self-medication” for childhood stress and abuse, made this statement yesterday and gave me permission to share it with you. He added, “I’m starting to believe I’m growing!”
He actually loves his EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing psychotherapy) therapy, and never thought he’d be able to say he loved any therapy — it was just something you had to do to survive.To learn more about EMDR therapy, please check out the home page link below to a client-friendly EMDR website: ComprehensiveTherapyApproach.com.
There you can find a CBS News Special Reports Video, a Directory of Certified EMDR Therapists in Boston and Eastern Massachusetts, including Cambridge and Wellesley, and many articles about addictions, phobia, chronic health problems and their relation to trauma, PTSD, depression, and so on.
