This is a treatment counselors are using for vets suffering from PTSD. They are finding phenominal results in bringing relief. I had three of these treatments and it brought a lot of peace.

I found this to work quite well. I have phobias that it almost totally cured. I had a fear of new born babies. I was afraid that just by being near me they would be at risk of SIDS (My sister had a baby die of SIDS when I was about 8) I did not live close to her but I went to the funeral. Very scarey experience for 8. My daughter gave birth to a premie and I was scared for 2 years that something would happen. When she got pregnant with her second child I had my psychologist give me EMDR for a treatment so that when my grandson was born I could be OK with him and I was. It was great. I have another phobia of snakes but the psychologist that treated me has moved so I can't get a treatment for that.
