In today’s powerful episode of The Well Health and Wholeness Podcast, we are joined by Sarra Lashhab, a licensed mental health therapist specializing in trauma recovery and working with survivors of sexual assault. Sarra provides a deep dive into EMDR therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) — a highly effective treatment for trauma victims and rape survivors.
Episode Highlights:
- What is EMDR Therapy?: [Guest Name] introduces EMDR, a transformative therapeutic approach that helps patients reprocess traumatic memories and reduce emotional distress.
- How EMDR Works: Learn about the science behind EMDR therapy and how it facilitates healing by using bilateral stimulation to help rewire the brain’s response to trauma.
- The Healing Process for Rape Survivors: Sarra shares insights into how EMDR therapy is particularly effective for rape survivors and other victims of abuse.
- What to Expect in an EMDR Session: Gain a better understanding of the therapy process, what clients can expect during their first session, and how the treatment helps them reclaim control over their lives.
Key Takeaways:
- EMDR as a Trauma Recovery Tool: EMDR offers hope for individuals suffering from PTSD, childhood trauma, and sexual violence. This evidence-based treatment works by helping individuals process distressing memories in a safe and supportive environment.
- The Power of Talk Therapy: Combining EMDR with traditional talk therapy helps individuals work through the emotional and psychological pain caused by traumatic events, leading to profound healing and resilience.
- Taking the First Step Towards Healing: If you're a trauma survivor or know someone who is, this episode provides valuable insights into how EMDR therapy can make a life-changing difference.

During my teenage years, I was volunteering with a local rape crisis center which is when my passion started for helping people heal from trauma. For the past 9 years I have experience working in clinical mental health settings. My favorite part about being a therapist is seeing people regain their life back. A traumatic event can have an enormous impact on the way people feel ashamed about what happened, unsafe in the world, and voiceless. As a trauma-informed therapist I treat PTSD, anxiety, perfectionism, low self-esteem, and issues with body image. Healing Loudly can help you release the pain of your past and live fully in the present moment. I provide EMDR therapy in Fort Myers, FL and virtually across Florida. If you are ready to start your healing journey, give me a call or send me an email to schedule your first therapy session.
