We haven’t fully started EMDR yet, we are just trying to set up a safe / happy place and do some tapping. At some point during this I will always become really anxious, I also can’t focus on the place for long. I’ve had over a dozen sessions in it doesn’t seem to be getting any easier. My therapist is really kind and great to work with but I’m worried this isn’t for me. We haven’t even gotten to any negative thoughts yet, it’s just tapping while thinking of my happy place but I’m struggling. Is this normal ?
