Abstract:
In diesem Beitrag wird beschrieben, wie Traumatherapie unter Einbeziehung der Körperwahrnehmung schonend gestaltet und so einer Retraumatisierungsgefahr wirksam begegnet wird. Ziel ist das Erlangen der Fähigkeit, den Aktivierungszustand des autonomen Nervensystems zu regulieren und auf diese Weise Zugang zu ressourcenvollen Ich-Zuständen zu erlangen. Das Vorgehen wird durch neurobiologische Erkenntnisse begründet und anhand von Fallbeispielen veranschaulicht. Der Ansatz wird als Ergänzung zu anderen traumatherapeutischen Verfahren, gleich welcher Schule, verstanden und lässt sich gut mit speziellen Methoden, wie beispielsweise EMDR, verbinden.
Summary: This paper describes how trauma therapy including bodyawareness can reduce the impact of the traumatic memory and can efficiently prevent retraumatization. The goal is to achive the ability to self-regulate activation of the atuonomic nervous system and hence, to attain access in states in which patients can maximize their resources. This proceedure is based on neurobiological findings and exemplified with case studies. The approach compliments other trauma therapeutic interventions, regardless of the theoretical orentation, and can be combined with techniques like, for instance, EMDR.

Abstract:
Voor de behandeling van de posttraumatische stress stoornis (PTSS) bestaan er
twee behandelmethoden waarvan de werkzaamheid voldoende is aangetoond:
gedragstherapie (imaginaire exposure) en Eye Movement Desensitization and
Reprocessing (EMDR) (de Jongh en ten Broeke, 2003). EMDR is in Amerika
door Shapiro ontdekt en ontwikkeld. In de 90’er jaren is deze
behandelmethode in Nederland geďntroduceerd. Oorspronkelijk is het een vorm
van psychotherapie voor volwassenen. In Amerika zijn onder anderen Lovett,
Tinker en Wilson begonnen om EMDR ook bij kinderen toe te passen. Het
eerste onderzoek naar de behandeling van kinderen met EMDR is in 1996
gepubliceerd door Chemtob (Lovett, 1999).
Inmiddels zijn er in Nederland verschillende artikelen geschreven over de
toepassing van EMDR bij kinderen (de Roos en Beer, 2003; Beer en de Roos,
2004). EMDR kan goed bij schoolgaande kinderen gebruikt worden. Er wordt
dan gewerkt met het kinderprotocol. Adolescenten, pubers en lagere
schoolkinderen worden nu vaak met EMDR behandeld als er sprake is van
PTSS. De toepassing bij peuters is minder bekend.
Hoe jonger het kind des te sneller therapeuten geneigd zijn om niet met het
kind zelf te werken. Dikwijls wordt dan volstaan met ouderbegeleiding.
Ouders krijgen adviezen hoe zij hun kind kunnen helpen bij de verwerking van
het trauma. Naast de ouderbegeleiding krijgt het kind zelf vaak helemaal geen
behandeling, terwijl behandeling van het kind wel datgene is waar ouders om
vragen. Het kind behandelen werkt directer en waarschijnlijk ook efficiënter en
effectiever.
Bij kinderen onder de vier jaar zijn een heleboel elementen uit het EMDR
protocol niet uitvoerbaar. Toch is het heel goed mogelijk om EMDR ook bij de
allerkleinsten te gebruiken, namelijk door middel van de “storytelling”
techniek van Lovett (1999). De hulp en inzet van ouders is daarbij een vereiste.
In dit artikel wordt deze techniek beschreven aan de hand van een
gevalsbeschrijving van een jongetje van drie jaar, Tommy. Het artikel begint
met een uiteenzetting van de voorgeschiedenis van de casus. Daarna wordt
aangegeven welke elementen van het EMDR protocol aangepast moeten
worden bij peuters en wordt de “storytelling” techniek, oftewel de verhalenmethode, beschreven. Dan volgt een weergave van het verhaal dat de
ouders van Tommy met behulp van de therapeut voor hem schreven.
Vervolgens wordt de behandeling van Tommy beschreven. Het artikel eindigt
met een conclusie.
For the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), there
two treatments for which efficacy has been adequately demonstrated:
behavioral therapy (imaginal exposure) and Eye Movement Desensitization and
Reprocessing (EMDR) (de Jongh and Ten Broeke, 2003). EMDR in America
discovered and developed by Shapiro. In the 90's, this
treatment method introduced in the Netherlands. It was originally a form
of psychotherapy for adults. In America, among others Lovett,
Tinker and Wilson began to EMDR in children applying. The
first research on the treatment of children with EMDR in 1996
published by Chemtob (Lovett, 1999).
There are now several articles on the Netherlands
use of EMDR in children (de Roos and Beer, 2003, Bear and Rose,
2004). EMDR may well be used in school children. It is
then worked with the children's protocol. Adolescents, adolescents and lower
school children are now often treated with EMDR when there is
PTSD. The application in toddlers is less known.
The younger the child the faster therapists tend not to
child to work. Often parent guidance are sufficient.
Parents get advice on how they can help their child in the processing of
the trauma. Besides the parent guidance, the child itself is often no
treatment, while treatment of the child does what is true for parents
questions. The child works deal more directly and probably more efficient and
effective.
In children under four years are a lot of elements from the EMDR
protocol is not feasible. Yet it is quite possible to EMDR also in
toddlers to use, namely through the storytelling
technique of Lovett (1999). The help and commitment of parents is a prerequisite.
This article describes the technique using a
case report of a boy of three years, Tommy. The article begins
with an account of the history of the case. Then
identifying the elements of the EMDR protocol adapted to
are young children and the storytelling technique, or the stories method described. Then follows a representation of the story that
Tommy's parents by the therapist wrote for him.
Then the treatment of Tommy described. The article ends
with a conclusion.

Abstract:
Most of us have suffered bouts of severe stress triggered by work or family troubles. At other times, the anxiety stems from trauma such as physical abuse, a serious car accident or witnessing the World Trade Center tragedy. In the past, professionals advised people with acute stress and post-traumatic stress disorder to get long-term counselling. These days, more and more therapists are turning to a much shorter form of therapy: eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR).

This short article sets out to promote thought as to whether treatments that are ineffectually proven might be doing more harm than good.

possibly more common than major depressive disorder (Breslau et al., 1998; Kessler et
al., 1995). In addition, many patients who have been the victims of directed violence,
such as rape or assault, continue to meet PTSD criteria 10 years after the incident
(Breslau et al., 1998).

Underviseren var den karismatiske norske psykolog, Atle Dyregrov (AD). Han omtalte den amerikanske psykolog, Francine Shapiro (FS), og den sćrlige behandling hun havde udviklet og som hun benćvnte EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitiazion and Reprocessing). AD redegjorde for, at man endnu savnede fuldgyldig videnskabelig dokumentation for behandlingens effektivitet, men at der allerede forelĺ sĺ mange indikationer pĺ behandlingens effekt, at man kunne regne med, at det kun var et spřrgsmĺl om tid, fřr en sikker dokumentation var i hus.

Abstract:
A typical integrative brand of therapy is Eye
Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing,
(EMDR), about which its originator, Francine Shapiro,
speaks to New Therapist in the coming pages of
this edition (see page 18).
But the history of EMDR is illustrative of the very
problem to which Rapp is alluding in her comments
about the advance of integrationism: That of the
emergence of discrete new schools which then have
to define their allegiances in the modality wars, much
in the same way Jung broke from Freud in the early
history of psychoanalysis.
The history of EMDR has been dogged by controversy
which makes other, more traditional modality
wars look tame by comparison. Those opposed to the
method have slated the lack of evidence and theoretical
grounds for its claimed efficacy (see page 16).
In response, its proponents have scrambled for more
research-based evidence of its value and recruited
thousands of practitioners as trainees and advocates of
the method.

Abstract:
The preparation phase is working strongly within the
experiential tradition because you’re making the person
fully able to deal with the processing that needs to arise.
And bringing in different self-control techniques also which
come from the cognitive behavioural and hypnotic traditions.
These are more on-the-spot shifts of state. It is
important to discriminate between changing state and trait.
Cognitive behavioural techniques help the person to keep
down their stress level in the present. These are important
tools, but they are considered a first step in the EMDR treatment.
The primary goal is to change the dysfunctional traits
of the person, in addition to giving them “state” control. [Excerpt]

Abstract:
Over the last decade, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprogramming (EMDR) has emerged as a well documented treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). A growing body of research is exploring its application to the treatment of other pathological conditions, including substance use disorders. EMDR was developed in the late 1980s by Francine Shapiro, at the time a graduate student in English literature confronting a diagnosis of cancer. Ms. Shapiro noted that, when dealing with her own distressing memories, simultaneously focusing on eye movements appeared to decrease the associated negative emotions. She assumed that eye movements had a desensitizing effect, and upon further investigation found that others also had the same response to the technique.

Language: English
Format: Magazine
Abstract:
Eye movement desensitization/reprocessing (EMDR) is a relatively new treatment that has produced beneficial results for individuals with post-traumatic stress disorder and other anxiety complaints. EMDR is a clinical treatment method developed to stimulate central nervous system information processing which has been disrupted by trauma experiences. A recent study tested whether EMDR was an effective treatment for decreasing gambling events among pathological gamblers. A gambling event was considered to be each separate gambling activity (i.e., buying a lottery ticket, a session of video poker). Pathological gamblers were hypothesized to be viable candidates for EMDR treatment because of the potential existence of unresolved trauma-related anxiety which may drive pathological gambling behavior. That is, pathological gambling may be a way for anxious individuals to cope with and try to control their anxiety. Nineteen clients who met DSM-IV criteria for pathological gambling and reported trauma histories appropriate for EMDR treatment were non-randomly classified into the EMDR treatment group or a control group. There were no significant differences in mean frequency of gambling events between the two groups pre-intervention. The EMDR-treament group received psychotherapy before and after their treament; control subjects received psychotherapy while they were on a wait list for EMDR treatment. The EMDR treatment targeted life events, not gambling-specific events. This study found that among pathological gamblers, EMDR was effective in significantly decreasing the mean frequency of gambling events. In addition, EMDR was significantly more effective in reducing frequency of gambling events than standard psychotherapy. EMDR was more effective among clients who had trauma histories. This study’s author suggests that these preliminary findings support an anxiety-based etiological model for gambling
disorders. While EMDR treatment for pathological gambling needs to be further researched, alternative explanations for these findings must be considered. Particularly, the variability of time in therapy pre-EMDR in this study may indicate that simply staying in treatment longer and being committed to change may be driving the successful treatment outcome.

In general it is suggested to expose adolescents with severe posttraumatic stress disorder to an EMDR treatment embedded in psychotherapy. Because of adolescent-specific conflicts like autonomy and independency, speechlessness and "enacted messages" and the unstable life-situation of those adolescents therapeutic steps of statbilization and resource development have to be given prior emphasis. Trauma exposure with EMDR can be done within certain limits resulting from actual conflicts and tasks whih have to be resolved first. A case report demonstrates the different problems.

Abstract:
A few weeks ago an article in the Scientific American Twitter stream caught my eye. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) once again debuted as a “promising new treatment” for PTSD. EMDR, which has been repeatedly called “promising” over the last two decades, works only about as well for PTSD as other psychological treatment modalities with which it competes, primarily cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and exposure therapy. These so-called trauma focused treatments (TFT) all garner similar results. TFT have large effects in clinical trials, with two important caveats: 1) the enthusiasm of their various advocates bias the study results towards the treatment the researchers prefer; and, 2) they are effective for a significant number of carefully selected PTSD patients. The sad truth, however, is that current short-term treatments are not the solution for most patients with PTSD. Trial criteria often exclude those with comorbid disorders, multiple traumas, complex PTSD, and suicidal ideation, among others. Even when they are included, comorbid patients drop out of treatment studies at a much higher rate than those with simple PTSD, a problem that has implications for clinical practice. [Excerpt]

Abstract:
EMDR is a controversial but widely used method for treating PTSD and other psychiatric conditions. Controversy surrounding EMDR stems from two main sources. FIrst, it lacks convincing scientific rationale. The main intervention in EMDR requires the patient to recall trauma-related memories while also attending to some form of external oscillatory stimulation. This stimulation is typically induced by the therapist moving a finger from side to side, across the patient's field of vision, inducing eye movements. After each set of eye movements, the patient is asked to natice what memories, images, thoughts, or feelings arise, and then more sets of eye movements are induced until distress is reduced.

A brief outline of exposure in vivo treatment, the EMDR treatment protocol, and an EMDR case-study are presented. It is concluded that observed procedural and theoretical differences between exposure and EMDR lead to the conclusion that the effectiveness of EMDR, most likely, cannot be explained by the effects of imaginal exposure only.

Abstract:
Langdurige blootstelling aan traumatische herinneringen wordt door velen beschouwd als een noodzakelijk element in de behandeling van posttramatic stress-stoornis (PTSS). Deze bewering wordt ondersteund door de doeltreffendheid van de directe therapeutische blootstelling (DTE), zoals blijkt uit gecontroleerde studies. Omgekeerd is er aanwijzingen dat andere behandelmethoden die geen gebruik maken van langdurige blootstelling wijzen verschijnt even effectief. Bovendien is de effectiviteit van de DTE bemoeilijkt door zowel psychiatrische complicaties en de beperkte compliance van de patiënt als gevolg van problemen met de blootstelling huiswerkopdrachten. In deze paper wordt geconcludeerd dat de DTE is een levensvatbare behandeling voor PTSS, maar het is twijfelachtig of DTE moet worden beschouwd als de 'voorkeursbehandeling' voor PTSS. Steekwoorden: langdurige blootstelling, PTSS, te herzien.
Prolonged exposure to traumatic memories is considered by many as a necessary element in the treatment of posttramatic stress disorder (PTSD). This claim is supported by the effectiveness of direct therapeutic exposure (DTE), as is evident from controlled outcome studies. Conversely, there is evidence to suggest that other treatment approaches that do not use prolonged exposure appear equally effective. Furthermore, the effectiveness of DTE is complicated by both psychiatric complications and limited patient compliance as a result of difficulties with exposure homework assignments. In this paper, it is concluded that DTE is a viable treatment for PTSD, but it is questionable whether DTE should be considered the 'treatment of choice' for PTSD. Key words: prolonged exposure, PTSD, review.

Abstract:
In the June edition of InPsych, an article summarising a recent APS review of evidence-based psychological interventions for mental health disorders did not sufficiently highlight the high level of evidence for the effectiveness of Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In particular, a summary table of psychological interventions with the highest level of research evidence (according to National Health and Medical Research Council criteria) should have prominently presented EMDR for the treatment of PTSD in the body of the table. As EMDR had not been systematically included in the review of psychological interventions, a footnote to the table stated the high level of efficacy of EMDR for PTSD. This oversight has been corrected in the online version of the InPsych article (www.psychology.org.au/publications/inpsych/2010/june/murphy/#s3) and a summary of the research evidence for EMDR from 19 randomised controlled trials will be included in a revision of the full evidence-based psychological interventions review document.

Eighteen hundred years ago the Greek astronomer, and mathematician, Ptolemy, discovered he

the Salpetriere Hospital in Paris experienced increased relaxation and a reduction in the
symptoms of hysteria when they were exposed to flickering light. Since the late 1930's
neuroscientists have known that brainwaves would rapidly mimic the rhythm of a flashing light
( or sound ) stimulus. British EEG researcher, W. Grey Walter originally called this the "flicker
phenomena," noting that strobic light produced states of profound relaxation and vivid mental
imagery. Today this same principle is known as visual entrainment.

Er is enig bewijs dat EMDR is zo effectief als cognitieve gedragstherapie in de behandeling van PTSS. Echter, de hoge verwachtingen met betrekking tot effectiviteit zijn nog niet bevestigd. Als de 'EMDR beweging' beweert dat de status van een officieel en wetenschappelijk gevalideerde psychotherapeutische methode, is onderzoek nodig dat zich kan identificeren met de specifieke effecten van de procedure ten opzichte van de niet-specifieke effecten van psychotherapie.
In short time EMDR has achieved enormous popularity as the treatment of choice for posttraumatic stress disorders, even in absence of a scientifically valid theory on its working mechanisms. Advocates frequently make bold claims regarding effectiveness. They suggest that EMDR is rather simple to perform, and that EMDR has little burden for the patient. There is some evidence that EMDR is as effective as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in the treatment of PTSD. However, high levels of expectation with regard to effectiveness are not yet confirmed. If the ‘EMDR movement’ claims the status of an official and scientifically validated psychotherapeutic method, research is needed that can identify the specific effects of the procedure relative to the non-specific effects of psychotherapy.

Abstract:
Kazuistika ilustruje využitie stabilizačných psychoterapeutických techník a EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) v terapii jednoduchej i subsyndromálnej komplexnej (3) posttraumatickej stresovej poruchy (PTSP) u tej istej pacientky. Stabilizačné techniky, ktoré využívajú špeciálne volené a štruktúrované imaginácie, pomáhajú pacientovi v prvej fáze terapie obnoviť schopnosť prežívať bezpečie, mobilizovať jeho vlastné zdroje uzdravenia a pomôcť mu získať kontrolu nad vlastným prežívaním. EMDR je psychoterapeutická metóda konfrontácie s traumou (expozície), ktorá vychádza z poznatkov o neurobiologickom spracovaní informácií. Jadrom metódy je zistenie, že bilaterálna stimulácia (zabezpečená najbežnejšie pohybom očí zo strany na stranu – odtiaľ názov metódy) umožňuje adaptívne spracovanie dysfunkčne uloženej informácie a uvoľňuje samoliečiaci proces v nervovej sústave pacienta (4). Stabilizačné techniky i EMDR patria ku komplexnej psychoterapii traumy.
The case report illustrates the use of psychotherapeutic techniques, stability and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and reprocessing) in the treatment of simple and complex subsyndromálnej (3) posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the same patient. Stabilization technique using specially chosen and structured imagination, assist the patient in the first phase of therapy to restore the ability to experience security, to mobilize its own healing resources to help him gain control of their own survival. EMDR is a psychotherapeutic method of confrontation with the trauma (exposure), based on knowledge of the neurobiological information processing. The core method is the finding that bilateral stimulation (eye movements commonly provided from side to side - hence the name of the method) allows for adaptive processing of dysfunctional information stored and released samoliečiaci process in the nervous system of patients (4). Stabilization techniques and EMDR psychotherapy include a comprehensive trauma.

Abstract:
I knew about Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy from one of my best friends, Lily Burana. I had watched it do wonders for her and her combat-veteran husband, and I'd read her enthusiastic account of the experience in her memoir "I Love a Man in Uniform." As she explains, "In the course of a year, I got married, my husband went to war, we moved to a new post and my father died. To say everything hit the fan was an understatement. I'd been sitting in the therapist's chair for a year and not getting better; I was just getting better at telling my story. With EMDR, it started to work right away."

Abstract:
Eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), which combines the use of imaginal exposure with eye movement, has been proposed by its originator, F. Shapiro, as a prescriptive treatment for trauma-related anxiety. The authors question Shapiro's practice of prohibiting individuals not associated with her EMDR Institute from training others in the technique. They argue that this practice impedes unbiased replication research, and they call for public dissemination and scientific scrutiny of EMDR methodology.

Abstract:
Whether you are first learning about Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) or you have participated in EMDR training, the goal of this article is to provide the reader with a brief overview of strategies for using the full protocol with young children. To understand the process by which the phases of the protocol are applied with child clients, it is important to understand the theoretical underpinnings that Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) theory creates as a foundation for healing and health with children. After discussing the application of AIP to children, the article will continue with an overview of skills therapists can use to create a toolbox that can be integrated into the EMDR eight phase treatment protocol with references for additional study and training on using EMDR with children. Finally, therapists will begin to learn how to adapt the full EMDR protocol for effective psychotherapy through developmentally suited language and interventions with even the youngest of clients.

Abstract:
It is generally held that EMDR is not
to be used with couples, and I agree
that it is not appropriate to do so when
the primary items being dealt with are
such issues as power, intimacy, trust,
communication, conflict, or control of
impulses and emotions. However, I
discovered recently that EMDR can be
used successfully and effectively with
couples in at least one particular type
of circumstance. The circumstance I
have in mind is that in which a couple
faces an external threat or severe loss
that creates a crisis atmosphere to
which each member of the couple is
reaching considerable anxiety and
extreme distress. However, rather
than allowing their relationship to
degenerate into mutual blaming and
fault-finding, the members of the
couplemaintain their bonding to each
other, continue to support each other,
and constitute a unified front in regard
to the threat or loss.

We are just beginning to understand that psychological trauma from emotional, physical and sexual abuse in childhood is epidemic in our society. We know the extent of the problem, and that trauma is trauma, no matter how it happens. For example, a child living in an anger-filled or incestuous home may have all the signs and symptoms of the traumatized Vietnam veteran. We know too that the cause of the lasting distress may be largely physical, resulting from permanently altered neurology and biochemisty.

Abstract:
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a fairly common disorder. Roughly 8-10% of the population will suffer from PTSD at some point in their lives. For victims of violent crimes such as rape, the rate of PTSD may be 60-80%. (1) According to the DSM-IV, diagnostic criteria for PTSD include: 1) perceived or actual threat to life or physical integrity, accompanied by an emotional response of horror, helplessness, or intense fear; 2) re-experience of the trauma (e.g. flashbacks and nightmares); 3) avoidance of trauma-related stimuli and numbing of interest and affect; and 4) increased unwanted arousal, such as concentration difficulties, irritability, and insomnia. Specific criteria exist regarding the numbers of symptoms in each category that must be present.

Language: English

Abstract:
“Eye Movement Desensitizing and Reprocessing” or EMDR, is an innovative treatment for psychological disorders such as PTSD, first discovered and developed by California psychologist Francine Shapiro, PhD. in the 1980’s. EMDR uses eye movements to turn on memory processing systems that are normally activated by Rapid Eye Movement (RIM) during periods of sleep. During REM, our brains are processing memories, deciding what to keep and what to discard. However, when the brain attempts to process traumatic memories, the intense emotions often associated by them causes the sleeper to have nightmares and wake up before the memory can be processed. The results can be continued nightmares, flashbacks, insomnia, depression, and anxiety. Normally, with just a few treatments, EMDR can help the brain to process the traumatic memories by initiating RIM while the patient is fully awake. For more information on EMDR visit: www.emdr.com
