And there is doing or not doing.

Ah yes, all concepts in themselves.

Look into the word resistance and show me where it is.

I also don't believe in blocks. (Don't shoot me!)

I had long thought

Jordan shares some ideas on how to move beyond doing EMDR processing on the Big T and Little T traumas and doing it with times when people get angry. Anger situations happen in public when shopping, in families, couples and relationships, on the road and at work so there are lots of opportunities to do EMDR.

If you have had success using EMDR, either as a client or therapist, you are welcome to add a comment telling about your success.  You are invited to share the issue you were working on, about how long it took and what the results you received are.
