What is EMDR therapy (or elaborate more on the mission above if we change it)
My name's Pamela, I'm a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based on the Big Island, Hawaii specializing in helping people overcome their trauma with EMDR treatment. Are you a Christian? I work from this perspective for those who feel comfortable with faith-based therapy. I am also privileged to work with individuals and families on issues such as Childhood and Military trauma, Physical and Emotional abuse, Anger, Effective communication, Self discovery, and family issues.
How you can overcome your PTSD with a EMDR
One in five women and one in ten men will experience PTSD at some point in their lives.
EMDR therapy has been shown to help 80% of people who complete it.
The treatment helps your brain process traumatic memories.
Which will most likely reduce overwhelm, anxiety and depression.
Most people who have experienced trauma feel a lot of shame for what happened.
This can come in many forms, such as feeling guilty about things
you did or didn't do during the traumatic event.
Are you struggling with past or current military and childhood trauma?
Is your marriage falling apart?
Are you dealing with overwhelming anxiety or depression?
Are you in conflict with family members?
These are my specialties and if your ready to be guided on
