EMDR workbook for children & adults: A complete guide to treating your trauma

Trauma is an inevitable aspect of life. You or anyone you care about has almost certainly been through trauma, whether it was "big-T" trauma like mental, physical, or sexual assault, or "little-t" trauma like divorce, loss of employment, terrible childhood events, or any scenario where you seemed worthless, frightened, or helpless. Untreated trauma may result in long-term consequences such as depression, anxiousness, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and problems sustaining intimate relationships. The best part is that we can recover. It doesn't have to be a lifelong process. Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) is a form of psychotherapy that has been shown to help individuals recover from trauma & enhance their quality of life. EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) is a relatively recent method of psychotherapy. It's gaining popularity, particularly as a treatment for PTSD. PTSD is often caused by military combat, physical violence, rape, or car accidents. Amid ongoing research, EMDR remains controversial amongst some health care professionals. EMDR has seemed to take an unconventional approach to mental problems at first glance. It has nothing to do with medication or talk therapy. In contrast, EMDR depends on the person's own quick, consecutive eye movements. The emotional effect of unpleasant memories from the past is reduced by these eye movements. You'll learn the following in this book: Neurological analysis of trauma and stress and the effects on our brain Trauma, its signs and symptoms Neurobiology of trauma and stress PTSD and the brain All about the EMDR therapy Different phases of EMDR therapy, benefits, effectiveness, models Traumatic memories, EMDR, children & adults Childhood trauma and EMDR Self-asministered EMDR EMDR Workbook ( Protocol scripts, journal) Tips, Success stories of EMDR & much more The breakthrough Eye Movement Desensitizing & Reprocessing (EMDR) psychotherapy developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro has been effectively utilized to treat a multitude of symptoms, like anxiety, aggression, melancholy, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
