Can you share some EMDR anxiety success stories?

There was a woman who had anxiety due to a car accident she had experienced in the past. The memories of the accident would trigger intense anxiety. Through EMDR, the therapist helped her reprocess those memories. She started to feel less panicky when getting into a car. She could drive again without constantly reliving the accident in her mind. The therapy not only reduced her anxiety but also improved her mental state overall. It took several sessions, but the results were remarkable. During the EMDR process, she was able to face the traumatic memories in a safe environment, which allowed her to gradually let go of the associated anxiety. As she became less anxious, her relationships also improved as she was more present and less preoccupied with her past trauma.
