Understanding Trauma and EMDR

  • Summary

  • Join Heather & Antwan as therapist Heather shares the theory and impact of trauma on the brain and body. Then dive in as they discuss EMDR (one effective therapy to recover from trauma), from both the practitioner and the patient perspectives!

    (Heather would also like to apologize for sounding so forceful and angry in the intro! Not sure what was going on there - I felt fine. LOL!)

    Mentioned in this episode:

    The Body Keeps the Score by Bessel van der Kolk

    EMDRIA

    Encouragement Corner:

    "You gotta resurrect the deep pain within you and give it a place to live that's not within your body. Let it live in art. Let it live in writing. Let it live in music. Let it be devoured by building brighter connections. Your body is not a coffin for pain to be buried in. Put it somewhere else."
