This brief questionnaire helps me understand how your mind and nervous system handle overwhelming experiences. It's not a test — there are no right or wrong answers. It simply helps me tailor our preparation and pacing so that our work together feels safe and effective.
Please answer based on experiences that occur in your everyday life, when you are not under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
We'll review your responses together during our opening hour. Your score will not be shown to you here — we'll talk about what it means in context, together.
How to answer
For each statement, use the slider to show what percentage of the time you have that experience — from 0% (never) to 100% (always).
Thank you for completing this.
Your responses have been submitted. We'll look at what came up together during our opening hour — I'll bring the context and we'll make sense of it side by side.
If you haven't yet completed the EMDR Intensive Preparation Guide, please do that before your intensive as well.
