EMDR Therapist does not do psychoanalysis so I do not have to worry about retelling stories in depth or over analyzing thought process. We do do some to find a target for the EMDR session. He also uses Internal Family Systems. Only done one major session on that. Fascinating approach. At least I know when I go to a session with him it is structured with a purpose. Therapist #1 wings it like free association and I feel like we are just doing coffee talk now a days. That is probably my fault because I stopped telling how I really feel and will no longer narrate stories from my childhood because he has let me leave there triggered and dissociated and cope the negative way I always have which was the reason that brought me to him in the first place.
