Well, the good thing about EMDR is you DON'T have to talk! That is why it is good for trauma, because sometimes talking about the trauma is just too difficult. I'd ask her about it, even if she isn't certified, i am sure she knows some about it. YOu can just say that she really knows very little about what goes on in your head because of your fear, and maybe doing something that wasn't centered on talking would help. OR you can look up EMDR-T's in your city, and just go for a consultation and see what they think. It might not hurt to try.
Thanks for this!
