A couple of years ago, I asked my T what he thought about me going to EMDR. His answer was that EMDR is most effective to people who are dealing with one type of abuse. Sometimes, a second type (single event) may be added successfully.

If one has had different types of abuse occurring at different times, some single events &/or repetitive, EMDR has not shown itself as being particularly helpful to them.

He, therefore, didn't think that EMDR would help me. Unfortunately. I have continued to see this T, however, and my trust in him has significantly increased. I think that I may have finally found the right T for me to work through things with!
