ACT and EMDR for the treatment of recurrent obsessions about death

February 7, 2020 Sarah McCartney

“I came to see Sarah because I was troubled by recurrent obsessions about death. I had these obsessions in my youth and was treated by medication. However, I never learned how to handle these intrusions. When these returned this year I was overwhelmed and sought help.”

"I came to see Sarah because I was troubled by recurrent obsessions about death. I had these obsessions in my youth and was treated by medication. However, I never learned how to handle these intrusions. When these returned this year I was overwhelmed and sought help.

Sarah taught me techniques to manage these frequent and distressing intrusions about death. She also instilled in me confidence and I feel empowered. After 9 sessions I now rarely get intrusions about death and they are no longer distressing because I know how to manage them more effectively. I particularly liked the Acceptance and Commitment (ACT) and EMDR aspects of the therapy.

It feels like the complete package of treatment has helped. I continue to practice what Sarah has taught me and I can imagine myself doing this for the rest of my life, because it is helping me."
