Trauma is anything that overwhelms your brain's ability to cope...

Francine Shapiro, the founder of Eye Movement Desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR) identified BIG T traumas and little t traumas. Any event that is stuck in your mind and keeping you from truly living fully is a considered traumatic, at least in my book. There are many myths about trauma, but science is eradicating these misnomers. Even the new version of the DSM 5 has dramatically changed the criteria for PTSD. So please don’t wait to seek help or dismiss something  because “it doesn’t seem like a big deal.” It is a big deal because it is impacting your life!   Call me to find out more about scientifically validated treatment options that can help you to regain control over your life.
