Why I Trained in EMDR
EMDR gained recognition as an evidence-based method for treating trauma in 2009 and has been endorsed by trauma experts like Bessel Van der Kolk, who notes its efficacy in treating trauma, often surpassing other therapeutic methods, though with certain exceptions. It is particularly potent for addressing both single-incident traumas and can even help with some complex (multiple traumas/childhood and adulthood).
Navigating the Journey to Sexual Reclamation After Trauma
In the aftermath of sexual trauma, reclaiming one’s sexuality is a journey marked not by haste but by patience, understanding, and self-care. It’s about acknowledging the natural complexities that surface in intimacy post-trauma and seeking compassionate guidance to illuminate the path to healing. It involves a gentle rediscovery of personal desires and boundaries, a process that’s both empowering and affirming. Engaging in self-care practices and building a support system are integral steps in this transformative journey. With empathy and the right resources, survivors can navigate this path at their own pace, gradually moving towards a future where intimacy is synonymous with safety, trust, and fulfillment.
