Over 40 years of successful experience in clearing away the root cause of problems vs. only working on the symptoms. Now with over 18 years of experience using EMDR as an EMDR Practitioner with my clients, I am so enthused how EMDR can clear out the most intense buried feelings, limiting beliefs, addictions and traumas in shorter times than with traditional talk therapy. I so appreciate that EMDR gives clients the clear conviction that lasting changes are possible. I keep up with the most advanced technologies in the field of counseling, and believe EMDR is definitely at the top.
I took my EMDR training in 2004 from the founder of EMDR, Francine Shapiro, PhD, through the EMDR Institute.
As you can see from my additional website, www.selfawarenessweekend.com, I stand for 12 results which I consistently see happen with my clients. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 1975. I’ve co-led my Self-Awareness Weekend once a month since 1983. EMDR fits in very well with what I stand for: to get to the root cause of problems vs. just working with the symptoms.
Testimonials:
“I can barely remember the traumatic event!!!!! after our EMDR session. I am free and say EMDR is like magic! Thank you!” C. J. Sacramento, CA
“I saw Andrea for EMDR to help me with my Hershey candy cravings. I knew the candy was a weekly reward from my Dad as a child after my parents divorced. I had done some talk therapy around my chocolate cravings and thought I pretty much had a handle on controlling them. I am diabetic and overweight. Today I can pass by chocolate and not associate it with abandonment, loneliness, brokenness or shame. My cravings do not exist. I am free from eating numerous candy bars a day to feel any void. EMDR was life changing and life-affirming for me.” R.J. Sacramento, CA
“I saw Andrea for EMDR for my sexual molest as a child. My life before EMDR was like waiting for the other shoe to drop. I set upon a course of counseling. Retreats and weekend experiences. I searched for answers to find out what was wrong with me. I was molested by one of my mother’s boyfriends in the back seat of the car while my mother was driving! She did nor said nothing. Both “adults” were DRUNK! ” This horrible, painful, molest wasn’t “just” a memory…it was an IMPRINT on the soul of my inner child. Thanks to Andrea Lambert I was led through the therapeutic process of EMDR and I was able to scream out loud, “mom why don’t you love me?” Today my inner child no longer waits for an imagined shoe to drop and hurt her. A soul, so small and fragile has been healed and cleansed from the rejection and abandonment of her mother and the madness of a man to act out his sexual needs on a child. I feel inside a peace and gentleness toward myself I could not imagine before now. EMDR will change your life, my friend, help yourself to the healing you deserve.” J.J. Sacramento, CA
“EMDR has helped me be free from old patterns that have been holding me back from truly experiencing life. The skill and caring Andrea has was apparent in her approach. The process was healing and empowering as she allowed me to take responsibility for my own healing during the process.” Vanessa G.
“After one session, I stopped smoking – EMDR works!” Marshall M.
“I am a combat veteran and in two EMDR Therapy sessions, I cleared my flashbacks and nightmares of PTSD from two serious incidents in a war setting.” Robert L.
“In just two sessions using EMDR, a sexual molestation event that happened to me 68 years ago was gone!! I had been carrying guilt and shame that didn’t belong to me all those years, and now I’m free!” P.L.
“Andrea Lambert’s compassion, empathy and skills with EMDR allowed me to genuinely find and retrieve my very wounded Inner Child. My Inner Child now experiences safety, security, and self-love from my adult self.” C.M.
