I did EMDR with my T a few years ago. The problem is that she tells me there's no right or wrong but I think I'm doing it wrong. I don't understand it but T believes it works so I'll try again.

I am a little embarrassed saying some words but I'm finding Kashi will say back to me things that were painful in my past. He doesn't allude to it he just says it and I find it jarring. I think it comes from a place of shame too.
I know what you mean! T will say things back to me and I want to hide. I think EMDR helped with my fear of matches and fire --somewhat.
