It’s reprocessing and desensitization for trauma. It is extremely effective for veterans with ptsd.
If it works for you that's great. As with most therapies there's so many variables to the client, procedure, and way it is presented by the T that it may or may not help with each person. But if you have found something that works for you , stick with it.
