What is EMDR? And what is Transformational Healing? And which one helps more? Short answer: both!
 
In this episode, I go into detail about:
- EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and why it works so well for single-event trauma recovery;
-some of the literature that backs EMDR as a means of getting over one-time traumas like a car accident, a lost job, etc.;
-Transformational Healing™ and why it works to change trauma-based patterns, like repetitive break ups, financial problems, your relationship with your mother, etc.
-examples of healing success stories with neuroscience-based Transformational Healing;
-why weaving spiritual healing in whatever we do can lead to more holistic healing;
-my very personal reasons for getting certified in EMDR and still using it in working with clients;
-A mini-Transformational Healing process to change your future TODAY!
