Really good practical article to help the non-professional understand EMDR!

That was awesome to read. At one point in my own EMDR treatment I could really feel it working, literally in the moment, and I became “distracted” by that fact so that I was following my therapist’s fingers and must’ve had this look of total awe because afterwards she checked in with me, and I was like,”Oh, MY gosh!” I could literally feel the trauma diminishing. I was astonished! It really is an amazing treatment. Amazing.

Its amazing to feel your brain changing during EMDR. Many people say they can feel the trauma fading away.
