Listen Later

Holly is joined by Yolanda, a psychotherapist and EMDR practitioner. In this episode, they talk extensively about EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) as a therapy that's highly effective for trauma, anxiety, panic, and so much more. Here's what we'll cover:

  • The definition of trauma (it's not just car accidents and assaults!)
  • How the fight, flight, or freeze response governs trauma
  • How trauma creates feelings of anxiety, panic, distrust, and hypervigilance
  • EMDR therapy: who is it right for? What can it help?
  • What an EMDR session looks like from beginning to end
  • The benefits clients notice from EMDR therapy
  • Holly's personal experience with EMDR
  • How to find an EMDR therapist in your area
