Abstract:
EMDR: Is Psychiatry Missing the Boat? (point)
EMDR in Treating PTSD (counterpoint)
This discussion focuses on the efficacy of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a highly controversial treatment for patients with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The point article stresses the extensive body of literature that shows the efficacy and safety of EMDR as a treatment protocol. It also explains the treatment process. The counterpoint article argues that much of the research supporting EMDR may not be methodologically sound and that attempting to make statements of efficacy based on the current literature may not be wise.[Psychiatric Times]

Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
Originally published in Contemporary Psychology: APA Review of Books, 1997, Vol 42(4), 363-364. Francine Shapiro comments on Jeffrey Lohr's review (see record 2004-17623-008)of Shapiro's book Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing: Basic Principles, Protocols and Procedures (see record 1995-98132-000). The author points out that Lohr has bolstered his argument by citing his own literature reviews, which are also characterized by pervasive misrepresentations of the actual data (Lohr, Kleinknecht, Tolin, & Barrett, 1995; Tolin, Montgomery, Kleinknecht, & Lohr, 1995). In his book review, Lohr questions the interpretations of the research the author gives in the text by saying that "Published accounts that cast doubt on the effect of treatment are ignored or discounted for insubstantial reasons." The author lists four criteria specified in the book for evaluating the clinical applicability of PTSD research results and states that the readers may judge if these criteria are indeed "insubstantial". Contrary to Lohr's implications, the judicious and diverse clinical applications of EMDR explored in the book have been supported by many experts in the field in conjunction with relevant published data. Rather than argue the merits of the proposed Accelerated Information Processing model or review the pervasive errors in Lohr's discussion of it, the author will allow readers to come to their own conclusions. She reaffirms here as she does throughout the text, that debates regarding the model, or the eye movements per se, are not relevant to the question of whether or not the method actually works. EMDR consists of much more than directed eye movements (or alternate stimulation). Rather, it is a complex integrative approach, drawing from psychodynamic, behavioral, cognitive, systems, and body-oriented therapies. More positive controlled studies support EMDR than any other treatment for PTSD (e.g., Carlson, Chemtob, Rusnak, Hedlund, & Muraoka, in press; Rothbaum, in press; Scheck, Schaeffer, & Gillette, in press; Wilson, Becker, Tinker, 1995, in press; Shapiro, 1996b). All of these studies fulfill accepted standards of objective psychometrics and independent assessors. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2008 APA, all rights reserved).

Abstract:
Addresses S. Joseph's critical commentary on the original article by F. Shapiro and L. Maxfield which reported on the efficacy of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy (EMDR). The current author offers support for EMDR, disputing the validity of Joseph's claims that EMDR lacks the appropriate evidence (in regards to its efficacy) necessary for its professional acceptance.

Language: Italian
Format: Book
Abstract:
I traumi, le ferite – del corpo o dell’anima che siano – nella vita non possono non accadere. Questo libro permette di avere una conoscenza colta, approfondita, attraverso una lettura piacevole ed agile, del trauma psicologico nell’adulto e nell’infanzia: sia di quello personale, sia di quello derivante da eventi catastrofici, portando a una conoscenza utile per aiutare il superamento naturale dei traumi più lievi, ma anche per riconoscere e indirizzare al trattamento clinico di eccellenza dei traumi maggiori. Gli autori dedicano il contrappunto finale al “Trauma nell’arte pittorica”, una breve e interessante panoramica di come alcuni celebri artisti hanno trattato/ritratto il trauma.
The traumas, wounds - the body or the soul that are - in life can not fail to happen. This book allows you to have a knowledge of intelligent, thorough, through an enjoyable read and agile, the psychological trauma in adulthood and childhood: both the staff, both those resulting from catastrophic events, leading to useful knowledge to help the overcoming natural milder trauma, but also to recognize and address the clinical treatment of major trauma of excellence. The authors devote the final counterpoint to the "Trauma in pictorial art," a brief and interesting overview of how some famous artists have treated / portrayed the trauma.

Abstract:
This Point/Counterpoint concludes the interchange in Greenwald, R. and Shapiro, F. (2010) What is EMDR?: Commentary by Greenwald and Invited Response by Shapiro Journal of EMDR Practice and Research, 4, 170-179. Greenwald Rejoinder: In this rejoinder, I highlight areas of agreement between Shapiro and me that were obscured by Shapiro's (2010) response to my (Greenwald, 2010) commentary. I also address some of the erroneous statements made by Shapiro (2010) in her arguments against my positions. Finally, I summarize our disagreements, and again assert that until we have an empirical basis for preferring a particular theoretical model of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), it is premature for professional organizations to endorse Shapiro's model. Shapiro Response: In response to Greenwald, I again confine myself to addressing some of the errors and misconceptions in his arguments in relation to important aspects of EMDR therapy, theory, and research. Further, contrary to his assertion, there is already a sufficient empirical basis to support the preferential use of the adaptive information processing (AIP) model from which the EMDR procedures were formulated. His argument against this position is antithetical to the traditional process by which foundational models are challenged, refined, or replaced. Implications are salient to both training and practice.

Abstract:
Dr. Silver asked me to comment on his submission. Rather than attempt to make this a “counterpoint,” I would like to share the thoughts that reading it has engendered. This is in no way to be considered a definitive statement. Dr. Silver’s article is quite provocative and of great service and if EMDR is to thrive, it is essential that trained EMDR practitioners maintain a stance of on-going scrutiny and diversity.
