Hi, we have a limited time, so I was worried it might not be enough time - but I think that may also be my anxiety and uncertainty.
I also had a therapist in the past who was anything but trauma-informed so trust is difficult. I suspect it will be okay. My therapist has been nothing but helpful over our time working.
Danaus, Prolonged Exposure involves client-led immersion in a triggering situation both with the imagination and in real life, and that's a very simple description.
radical, I think I agree with you that because in my case multiple interrelated traumas kind of make isolating an event for exposure difficult. I have written a long list of potential triggers so I think that's helpful. You're supposed to rate the triggers in terms of intensity and work through them gradually, which I think reduces the risk of overwhelm.
