EMDR Therapy and Sexual Trauma

EMDR International Association (EMDRIA)
About this episode

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month.  Every 68 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted. And, every nine minutes, that victim is a child. In this episode, we talk with EMDR-certified therapist, consultant, and virtual trainer Kristina Anderson about her work with victims of sexual assault and abuse. Find out how EMDR therapy can help heal.
