“I would like to express my gratitude to Dr Wolfman for helping me work through the trauma I suffered during the birth of my daughter in 2022 and resulting PTSD. After complications leading up to her birth, an induction and close to 40 hours of labour which ended up in an emergency c-section, I felt like I had no control over the birth. Every aspect of what I thought should have been a magical experience was taken away from me. As a result, I really struggled with the first few months of new motherhood. I was living with constant flashbacks of the birth, couldn’t go to basic medical appointments without being taken back to the experience, and was racked with guilt for having no connection with my daughter. After struggling to get any help through the public health system, Missy took me as a patient immediately and recommended EMDR therapy. Applying EMDR therapy with absolute professionalism, a kind hearted attitude, wisdom and sensitivity, Missy quickly empowered me to improve my PTSD on a profound level. For the first time in months since the birth, I was able to gain a sense of control back over my life, the flashbacks I had been riddled with, and truly form a connection with my daughter. Through EMDR therapy, I can now proudly say that I feel empowered by my traumatic experience. I am extremely grateful for Missy’s help, and hope that many more people - whether they be Mum’s or otherwise - can experience improved lives with her invaluable assistance.”
