I can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing. EMDR has been proven to help people let go of the disturbing emotions associated with trauma and the triggers produced by it. Small t trauma can be produced by a car accident or being bullied at school, or a sibling. This can cause many issues years later, like anxiety and depression and even PTSD. Events that happened before you could talk can cause anxiety that can show up as a senior.

You can use the negative past that once weighed you down as steppingstones to learn and grow from.
