Re:what does this mean?

EMDR can be very destabilizing, and people with complex trauma histories or certain other histories may not have sufficient ego strength to begin with. Hypnotherapy however can be used for ego strengthening purposes, to help build internal resources. For some people, resource development can be conducted with bilateral stimulation (a special form of EMDR) but not everyone.

These comments (my broken record) are not intended to apply directly to you, but rather are general comments. Talk to your therapist to see if it applies to you.
