Re: Six year-old and uncertain PTSD diagnosis

As an EMDR therapist working with adults and children, I have found EMDR helpful even when the client is not consciously aware of the association between his/her symptoms and his/her trauma history. EMDR decreases the symptoms caused by PTSD. If other symptoms are still in evidence after EMDR, a further diagnosis can be made.

Your son is very fortunate to have a parent who is able and willing to provide resources that enable him to heal while he is still so young.
