I have tried talking therapy when I was at the height of my PND/PNA, and I found it difficult to talk about emotions. I don’t have any PTSD but struggle with anxiety, health anxiety with my kids in particular and it’s taking over and preventing me from wanting to take them to places. Really struggle with noise, people eating and being loud. Will EMDR help? Thanks

I have had emdr and it was successful for me. I think if there is a trauma in your past that you haven’t processed then it works. Not sure how it would be used without a specific focus I only know how it was for me and maybe there are more uses. Hope you find something to help you.
