Feelings of Worthlessness? EMDR Therapy Can Help
Feeling worthless often stems from past trauma, negative core beliefs, perfectionism, and lack of validation. Experiences like childhood neglect, rejection, and unmet expectations can lead to distorted beliefs like "I'm not good enough" or "I'm unlovable." EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) helps by reprocessing traumatic memories. EMDR’s ability to directly target emotional pain makes it effective for overcoming feelings of worthlessness and building a more balanced self-view.
Healing from Emotional Responsibility: EMDR & Letting Go of Others’ Feelings
Feeling responsible for others' emotions often stems from childhood experiences, such as parentification, emotionally unstable caregivers, or being rewarded for people-pleasing. Trauma, guilt, and societal pressures — especially for women — can reinforce the belief that it’s your duty to regulate others' feelings. EMDR therapy can help by targeting the root of these patterns, reducing emotional intensity, and helping you develop healthier emotional boundaries.
