When a traumatic event happens our brain, at times, struggles to file away the memory. As a result the traumatic memory's files are left scattered in the brain and therefore "touching" other parts of the brain that make the traumatic memory available for recall through triggers. Triggers can be smells, sounds, feelings, emotions, and sights that are similar to the past trauma that bring the memory to the present.

Before the processing of a traumatic event occurs, one or two sessions will be spent getting to know you and your story; and for you to get to know me. Typically a session lasts 60 minutes. As for the number of sessions, it comes down to your pace. When we get into the target goal, I use bilateral stimulation - music and tapping, to help process the event.
