It has changed my life

Posted By Morpheus30

"It has changed my life"

About: Forth Valley Community Services / Psychological therapies

(as the patient),

I've just finished EMDR therapy with Pat. It has changed my life, I feel like a different person. Pat helped me process complex trauma and not only have I processed a lot of it, I've learnt how to look after myself when things come up. I really recommend EMDR and Pat! I've learnt to bring adult me to life and I'm so grateful I was given the opportunity to learn how to love myself again. After 15 years of talking therapy, EMDR has genuinely been life changing, Pat has been so supportive and it was a safe space that I'm really going to miss but I'm so proud I'm done
