Exploring Mental Health, Trauma, and EMDR Therapy

According to The National Child Traumatic Stress Network, complex trauma is "both children’s exposure to multiple traumatic events—often of an invasive, interpersonal nature—and the wide-ranging, long-term effects of this exposure. These events are severe and pervasive, such as abuse or profound neglect. They usually occur early in life and can disrupt many aspects of the child’s development and the formation of a sense of self. Since these events often occur with a caregiver, they interfere with the child’s ability to form a secure attachment. Many aspects of a child’s healthy physical and mental development rely on this primary source of safety and stability." Professor Paul W. Miller, M.D.,  BCh, BAO, DMH, MRCPsych, FRSA, psychiatrist, EMDR-certified therapist, trainer, consultant, speaker, and author discusses how complex trauma can impact someone, whether PTSD is always a given with those clients, and how EMDR can improve their lives - even patients with Schizophrenia. Learn more about how EMDR therapy helps clients, the research behind it, and why this treatment is more than "pixie dust."
