Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) is defined in the Diagnostic
and Statistical Manual IV-TR (DSM-IV-TR) as a disorder characterised by a preoccupation with an imagined defect
in one's appearance (American Psychiatric Association (APA),
1994). BDD can be treated effectively with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRls) or cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT)
(Williams et al.. 2006). CBT interventions which are most often
described in the literature are exposure and response prevention
(ERP) and cognitive techniques. These interventions successfully
weaken the catastrophic expectations of the patients.
However, they do not affect the negative valence of patients'
appearance. This negative meaning is not inborn but acquired
during life through association with distressful or even traumatic
events. Patients with BDD often report stressful events as the
starting point of their complaints (Buhlmann et al., 2007) as
well as PTSS like symptoms. i.e. intrusions (Osman et al.. 2004).
Processing of these unprocessed memories might free the way
to the development of a more positive meaning of their appearance.
Indeed, case series have been described in which EMDR
has been successfully applied in the treatment of BDD (Brown
et al , 1997). In the first part of this workshop background information
will be presented which might help identifying BDD
patients who might profit from EMDR and planning subsequent
EMDR treatment. In the second part of the workshop we share
our experiences treating BDD patients with EMDR. Clinical issues
will be analysed using videotaped cases of patients for illustration.
The goal of this workshop is to increase knowledge and
understanding of the use of EMDR in the treatment for BDD.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) and a related condition Olfactory Reference Syndrome
(ORS) have been debated for over a century regarding their nosology and treatment. Recent reviews
suggest a variable response to various pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy. The effects of EMDR on
such cases have not yet been sufficiently explored. Here we present 18 cases of both these conditions
with a high success rate using EMDR. We explore the relationship between them and offer a
hypothesis to explain the aetiology based on the Adaptive Information Processing Model (AIP).

Abstract:
Everything
we
have
heard
we
are
and
the
way
we
were
told
to
be
is
tied
to
our
image.
Behind
this
there
is
a
meaning
that
in
people
with
BDD
(Body
Dismorphic
Disorder)
acquires
a
value
that
ends
up
becoming
the
centre
of
their
lives,
around
which
they
revolve.
The
goal
of
this
presentation
is
to
explain
how
you
can
work
the
distortion
of
body
image
from
the
perspective
of
EMDR
in
order
to
work
on
one
of
the
source
problems
in
eating
disorders,
such
as
awareness
of
the
real
body
and
reach
acceptance.
One
of
the
first
definitions
of
body
image
is:
The
image
we
create
in
our
mind
regarding
our
own
body,
it
means,
the
way
we
see
ourselves.
Schilder
(1935).
In
addition
to
the
perception
of
our
body,
including
the
assessment
of
our
size,
there
is
an
emotional
or
attitudinal
image,
an
evaluation,
that
is,
the
way
we
feel
about
it.
This
is
the
aspect
that
we
usually
focus
on
when
we
talk
about
negative
body
image
in
people
with
eating
disorders,
using
body
dissatisfaction
or
rejection.
EMDR
works
by
floating
the
subject
back
in
time,
looking
for
the
earliest
or
most
significant
memories
in
which
the
person
felt
or
saw
him
or
herself
in
the
way
as
he
or
she
does
in
the
present.
When
working
with
distortion
of
body
image
and
EMDR,
we
take
the
picture
representing
the
rejected
self,
since
when
the
person
sees
him/herself,
the
image
seen
is
the
undesired
self
image
from
the
past.
We
help
the
subject
recognize
the
existence
of
the
rejected
self
and
work
towards
integration.

Abstract:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a
widely used and acknowledged treatment modality for PTSD but
is still in its experimental phase for other disorders, such as BDD.
With EMDR, the vividness and emotionality of unpleasant mental
representations, which resulted from one or more traumatic
events can be, reduced (Günter & Bodner, 2008). BDD patients
often report traumatic events preceding the development of BDD
and intrusive images referring to these events (Osman, et al.,
2004). Brown et al., (1997) were the first to treat BDD patients
for their traumas, using EMDR. The results of their case series
were promising but lacked a theoretical base. The learning
theoretical model of BDD provides a strong base for the selection
of interventions for individual patients and the application of
EMDR. This presentation outlines how to select the essential
target memories for EMDR treatment in BDD patients. One way is
to order etiological and/or aggravating events meaningfully on a
time line and select those memories for processing which
preceded an increase in BDD symptoms. The other way is to select
targets related tot anxious expectations and avoidance behaviour.
Video fragments illustrate the EMDR process in a BDD patient.
