I will email her tomorrow for check-in and see her next week for post-treatment processing before I tackle the next one.

One of the things she mentioned was that sometimes other memories may be brought up, so I'll be looking out for that.
Thanks so much for sharing about your experience.

My current pdoc thinks EMDR is a potentially very powerful treatment modality.
