Many people have heard of EMDR therapy but struggle to understand what it is. This week, Mona tries an EMDR demonstration on grief (TW: Death of a Parent) and describes her impressive results! Then we interview trauma therapist, Joanna Filidor LMFT, about what EMDR is and how to do it virtually with clients. She shares her understanding of trauma and why EMDR is so effective with it. If you have heard of EMDR but haven't been sure if you should try it, definitely listen to this episode!
