Treating trauma using CBT and EMDR re historical sexual assault

January 13, 2020 Sarah McCartney
IMG_2383.jpeg

I came to see Sarah because I had had enough of not feeling good. She was recommended to me. As a young teenager I was groomed on line and it escalated to me physically meeting the person. He turned out to be very different from who he said he was including his age. He raped me.

I found the combination of CBT and EMDR to be really useful. The CBT techniques helped to improve my mood and helped me to cope between sessions.

Sarah and I used EMDR to work on the memory and now it is an event I can talk about without it upsetting me at all.

Sarah has been sensitive to my needs. She is very empathic and I have always felt comfortable talking about these issues with her. The therapy room is a nice environment. She always inspired me to move forward and I gradually felt more and more empowered. It is my last session today and I am grateful that I took the step to get help. I have the skills to use for the rest of my life and the past is firmly in the past.

Female, age 25. (March 2019)
