1. Lopacka, J., & Phoeun, B. (2010, July). Building on experience: Post-typhoon trauma EMDR work in Cambodia utilising the lessons learned from Thailand's post-tsuname programme. Symposium (Carolyn L. Neunuebel, Chair) conducted at the 1st EMDR Asia Conference, Bali, Indonesia.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
On September 26th 2009 Typhoon Ketsana wrought devastation on parts of the Philippines, Vietnam and Cambodia. Mindful
of the hard lessons learned running a tsunami trauma programme in Thailand in 2005/06 Jane Lopacka, an EMDR therapist
and training facilitator and director of Phnom Penh Counselling Centre, led and supervised a team of Cambodian MA in
Clinical Psychology students who were trained in Part 1 EMDR to provide EMDR treatment to Ketsana victims. The purpose
of this paper is to demonstrate the scope, assessment methods, treatment programme, constraints, financial issues, and
challenges of the programme whilst utilising the lessons learned from Thailand’s Tsunami EMDR trauma programme. The
results regarding the efficacy of EMDR in a Cambodian context will be examined using pre and post treatment data. The
results include a comparison of 4 months post-treatment evaluation compared to an assessment of an equivalent random
number of Ketsana victims from the same and neighbouring villages who did not receive treatment (to be completed in June
2010 as the farming season dictates). This paper will also demonstrate the utilisation of the lessons learned from Thailand’s
Tsunami EMDR programme in a typhoon trauma treatment programme in Cambodia. Also, this being the students’ first
exposure to trauma work using EMDR, this paper will record the experiences of the students involved. By way of conclusion
this paper will identify further lessons learned in Cambodia along with recommendations regarding future feasible and
manageable post-trauma work with limited resources and a small budget in a Southeast context.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
To know the present status of EMDR in Asian countries:
Method: Inquiries by e-mail to the representatives of Asian countries and related US or European people
were sent. Replies were received from countries like Australia, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India,
Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Sri Lanka, Taiwan, and Thailand.
Questions were on the origin of EMDR, the first training, the number of trainings so far, the number
of trained practitioners, credentials, academic organization, acceptance from government, media, and
professional world, future possibilities, and difficulties expected.
Results: Some countries like Australia, Japan and Korea have already reached the moderate stage, but still they have problems
to be solved. In Australia, their first training was in 1993 and many therapists have received training, but, organization
started very recently and network is not strong. In Japan, Japan EMDR Association has more than 800 members and started
publishing their own academic journal in 2009. However sceptical statements about EMDR can be seen in some books on
trauma. In Korea, they have health insurance system for EMDR but practitioners are few. The other countries are in the early
stage to grow the EMDR community or support the EMDR therapists. Most of them began the history after a big natural
disaster like Tsunami or earthquake. HAP from Europe and/or US supports their beginning. The first Asian conference could
be a good opportunity to start mutual understanding and cooperation in Asia.

Abstract:
Discouraged with conventional psychiatry, Bittner sought a practitioner of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. The process is "the most effective and rapid method for treating post-traumatic stress disorder and has been used extensively to treat survivor's of the Sept 11, 2001, terror attacks in the US," according to BioLateral.com, an EMDR Web Site.
