Seems to be helping...
Limited success because I don't have many clear "target" memories. Used EMDR to tell self "I am valuable." This was very helpful, no adverse side effects.
it's great. it's worked wonders for me and i have only been to 3 sessions

I only got to take one time, but it did work.
helped alot with flashbacks

Eye movement treatment that has worked well so far.
I used this with a therapist in Upstate New York and had very good effects with it.
