Title: EDMR therapy Post by: Gerri on July 09, 2015, 09:36:39 PM I am very interested in discussing EDMR therapy for BPD. There is a highly acclaimed EDMR therapist where I live and I am wondering if anyone has any experience with this type of therapy for BPD. My 20 y/o daughter is going to a therapist and has started a DT group. I have heard positive things re EDMR (have experienced myself for PTSD and found it helpful.) Any thoughts?

Really very dramatic. I would just take her when things were in a really bad place and she would emerge lighter and reset. Back then I didn't know she had BPD just that she would get very negative and hopeless and dark.
I've tried it for myself for PTSD and I didn't really get a whole lot out it for whatever reason - I know other people do though. |
