EMDR for Trauma
Relationships; individuals, couples – I see couples initially to look at presenting issues and goals for therapy. I then quite often ask to see individuals separately to look at core beliefs/convictions, past unresolved issues, intimacy issues, expressing emotions, etc., – issues that may need exploring in more depth before therapy as a couple resumes.
Mild/moderate mental health issues – insight and coping strategies
Depression, we look at personal history, emotions that are being ‘de pressed’, energy that is depleted, strengths, life style and ways to cope
Anxiety, Panic, Agoraphobia. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Personal history, origins of the stress, reasons for ‘the freeze’, coping strategies, anxiety management techniques
