Could you use an expert opinion on what you're going through, or a non-judgemental ear just to listen? If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, then individual therapy could be the solution you've been seeking. Individual therapy differs from group or alternative therapy methods in the way that you are the sole focus of a single therapist who helps you develop and achieve your goals for therapy.
What is trauma? Most people consider trauma to be events such as exposure to the violence of war, the sudden death of a loved one, experiencing an assult of some kind, ongoing abuse or neglect, and other things. What I have come to realize over time, with training and experience, is the broader definition of trauma.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an integrative psychotherapy approach that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma. EMDR is a set of standardized protocols that incorporates elements from different treatment approaches. EMDR therapy is an integrative psychotherapy and uses a technique called bilateral stimulation to repeatedly activate opposite sides of the brain.
