<p>There is a young adult in our extended family who has been sober now for over 3 years. She is living on her own, low-wage job (wants to be an actress), and has no health insurance (ouch!). She recently saw a psychiatrist about her meds. He adjusted them, which she says has really helped with depression and anxiety, but she still has anxiety about driving (not entirely irrational in LA, IMHO, but still). He recommended that she look into EMDR, as she has some trauma from the time that she was using. She has been taking public transit, which is great - saves money and the planet - but occasionally one has to drive. Does anyone know anything about EMDR - how to find a competent practioner, what it might cost (there are family resources, but they’re not inexhaustible), and how many sessions/how long we should expect it to take to address her problem?</p>
<p>Thanks for any info - CC is a wealth of information!</p>
