No one can take back what has happened or put your life back together as it was, but what I can do is help you have the strength and knowing that life will get better and you will be okay.
How Can Recent Trauma EMDR Therapy Help Me?
Whatever you’ve gone through, likely you’re in a daze. Overwhelmed with
Your brain needs support in processing what happened. When we go through traumatic events and don’t get the necessary support, it leaves us at risk of developing complex issues and even Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. We can only deal with so much pain and distress and when things get too overwhelming, we shut down. This leads us to having further difficulty in relationships, our work, and being able to take care of ourselves and those
around us who may depend on us. With the necessary support as soon as possible after the event has happened, we can mitigate future mental health problems and grieve and heal in a more peaceful way.
