Is EMDR supposed to induce panic attacks?

I recently started EMDR with my therapist and my very first session I was a hair away from full blown attack. By the end I was shaking couldn't sit still and crying. I thought the whole point of EMDR was to help get rid of these attacks. I'm so glad I was with my therapist when that happened. She helped me come out of it. It takes me way longer on my own.

I did EMDR.

You do go through the feelings that you are there to solve. If your therapist got you "to the other side", she is doing proper treatment.

Check her credentials. IF you think she has enough training for your liking, trust the process and talk to her about your experiences.
