EMDR mimics REM sleep and allows someone to take those unprocessed trauma that never went through the prefrontal cortex and to file it correctly, to see it for what it truly is and to squash the negative beliefs that were the result of it and replace them with healthy, positive beliefs.
What happens when a high school English teacher and soccer coach turns into a writer and podcast host? In this episode of 'Adult Child', Andrea sits down with Katie Mather to find out. Katie shares her deeply personal journey of growing up in Alaska, dealing with childhood trauma, and battling alcohol addiction. Her story takes a twist when she discovers EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy, a technique that helps alleviate the distress tied to traumatic memories.
After a physical assault, Katie turned to EMDR and found it transformative. She explains how this therapy works, making it accessible for anyone curious about alternative healing methods. But the conversation doesn’t stop there. Katie and Andrea also dive into the controversial yet promising world of psychedelic therapy for mental health conditions that resist traditional treatments. Katie's insights are both eye-opening and hopeful, offering listeners a chance to learn about different paths to healing.
Whether you're struggling with trauma or supporting someone who is, this episode provides valuable perspectives on overcoming the shadows of the past.
