Is Your Client Ready to Do Trauma Processing?

The readiness checklist is a running list for you to scan through before determining what target we're going to step into reprocessing on. Sometimes when we're working with someone, we kind of just have a gut feeling or a hunch that they're not ready or that they are ready. And this is a way of kind of helping us externalize what that hunch is about. If there's things that you recognize the client needs to focus more in, we're still doing EMDR because we're working on those things in preparation to process trauma.
