Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
The after effects of trauma can be transmitted across generations, resulting in ongoing cycles of violence
and pain that affect individuals, families and societies. For those people and organizations working in
countries in need of significant conflict prevention, mediation, reconstruction and reconciliation, these
unprocessed memories can present a grave challenge.
EMDR therapy is an empirically supported treatment for trauma. Since it does not demand a description
of the event, it has proved successful in those cultures where self-disclosure is problematic. Since it does
not need homework, it can also be implemented on consecutive days, making it amenable to the use of
field teams after both natural and manmade disasters. Program evaluations have documented positive
and rapid treatment effects using both individual and group protocols.
The EMDR-Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP) is a global network of volunteer educator/clinicians
working to prevent and/or remediate the psychological aftereffects of trauma. HAP projects worldwide
have provided education about trauma and stabilization techniques, and taught local clinicians how to
provide both individual and group treatment in war-torn and disaster-affected areas. The primary goal is
to train clinicians to build sustainable mental health services that will meet not only immediate crisis
needs, but also comprehensively serve future generations.

Abstract:
Children, Adolescents, and EMDR: A closer look
In February of 1998, about four months after the devastation wrought by Hurricane Paulina, a team of Mexican therapists along with two EMDR-HAP members as “technical advisors” (myself and Judy Albert) were working with groups of children who had witnessed tragedy and suffered great losses. Our team had only three locations to help these children, so we attempted to develop group therapy situations based on the EMDR theory and protocol as much as possible.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
In 1999, EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP) began its work in Asia in Bangladesh. Since then HAP teams have
trained clinicians in India, Indonesia, China, Thailand, Sri Lanka. This presentation will summarize what has been learned
from ten years of experience in Asia. The EMDR HAP training in Sri Lanka following the 2004 tsunami will be presented in
detail. Issues addressed will include needs assessment, organization, collaboration among organizations, ethics, cultural
competence ,and program evaluation. Videotapes will show training and sessions of trainees with tsunami survivors. The
presentation will show how to train participants to think, write, and speak about EMDR as well as how to competently and
ethically utilize EMDR with clients.
An EMDR training program was conducted as a joint project of three organizations: EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs
(HAP), International Relief Teams (IRT), and the Sri Lankan National Counselors Association (SRILNAC). Between March and
December 2005, 30 Sri Lankan counselors were trained in EMDR. These counselors demonstrated competence in EMDR on
several measures, treated more than 1,000 children and more than 350 adult tsunami victims with EMDR in 2005, provided
narrative reports and outcome measures for most of their clients, and formed the Sri Lanka EMDR Association (SEA). The
crucial steps in establishing and implementing this training program are explained, with a summary of the subjective
impressions and learning experiences most valued by the training team, including an excerpt from a trainer’s journal. This
information may be useful to future cross-cultural humanitarian efforts following large-scale disasters.
This article summarizes the crucial steps in establishing and carrying out this training program as well. Previous HAP programs
in Bangladesh and Turkey (Konuk et al., 2006) had led to the development of a model of therapist training and service delivery
following large-scale natural disasters. Great need for mental health treatment in developing countries following a disaster
and the even greater challenge of delivering effective, culturally competent mental health treatment in these situations.
Silove and Bryant (2006) praised the rapid needs assessment after the tsunami as an important advancement in psychiatric
epidemiology that demonstrated the value of such assessment in guiding mental health interventions after disasters.They
pointed out that the controversy over whether to offer psychological treatment after disasters confuses funding agencies
and those planning mental health programs after disasters. Their concerns were echoed in Raphael and Stevens’s (2006)
delineation of the emerging consensus about good mental health practice after disasters in an article that was not a part of
the Bangkok symposium. IRT directors, EMDR-HAP staff, and SRILNAC leaders discussed crucial political, ethical, economic,
and logistical decisions in conference calls and e-mails. They outlined a program that would be responsive to the culture and
needs of Sri Lanka, would provide world-class EMDR training and consultation, and would follow International Society for
Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS) guidelines for mental health programs in post disaster situations (Weine et al., 2002). Following
the funding mandate of IRT, the HAP team took responsibility for ensuring that services would in fact be delivered to tsunami
survivors and that those services would be clinically effective. Therefore, requirements for continuing participation were quite
specific, and trainees were more thoroughly evaluated than in previous HAP projects. These 30 counselors treated more than
1,350 tsunami survivors with EMDR between March and December 2005 and submitted outcome reports on these sessions
that show marked improvement in PTSD symptoms. We know from e-mail contact that a number of participants continue
to use EMDR effectively. As mentioned Important elements of the HAP training program in Sri Lanka included (a) adequate
funding, (b) selection of trainees, (c) negotiation of objectives among HAP,IRT, and SRILNAC, (d) the pre-EMDR training in
traumatology, (e) the consultation between trainings,(f ) the requirements for ongoing participation in the training, (g) a
variety of measures of competence in EMDR, (h) the continuing, ongoing consultation with trainees, and (i) dedication. A
project like this is expensive. IRT received.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
EMDR is a well-established therapy for the treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). PTSD can be reduced or
prevented if treated during the first month after a trauma when a person displays Acute Stress Disorder (ASD). Although
usually used later, EMDR has also been used effectively in the immediate period following trauma. Victims of immediate
trauma often exhibit “silent terror” or extreme stress .The Emergency Response Procedure (ERP), described in the Humanitarian
Assistance Program’s (HAP) Disaster Manual and Marilyn Luber’s : EMDR Scripted Protocols: Basic and Special Situations.(2009)
was developed to deal with victims of natural and man made disaster within hours of exposure to trauma. Participants in this
workshop will learn how to respond to clients in the immediate aftermath of trauma, utilizing ERP. This will be understood
within the overall context of the principles of Psychological First Aid. This same basic approach can be applied in the event
of strong abreaction during the initial phase of History-taking, and prior to the Preparation Phase of EMDR or at other times
of treatment when patients exhibit strong emotional reactions. Similarly, treatment with ERP may also be considered for
patients exhibiting this “silent terror” or extreme stress during initial treatment by first responders at the scene of an accident
or in ambulances en route to medical facilities. Case examples will be presented to illustrate the successful treatment of
Acute Stress Disorder (ASD) with survivors the Tsunami in Thailand, and with victims of terror and war. In this presentation
the Recent Events Protocol will be examined, with particular emphasis on modifying the Positive Cognitions (PC) in the
face of continuing ongoing danger. EMD (Eye Movement Desensitization), the original protocol developed by Dr. Francine
Shapiro in 1989, will be described and compared to the standard EMDR protocol with emphasis as used in emergency
settings where multiple patients need rapid treatment.
The EMDR Group Protocol will be presented as utilized in the Tsunami of 2004 and during war. A practicum will follow.

training a Q Methodology was utilised. Q-Methodology allows
a researcher to explore a complex phenomenon from a subject's
point of view by using a distinct approach which rates the value
of 25 statements in order from least to most desirable. These
statements related to EMDR clinical practice, cultural application
of EMDR. EMDR research development, and their experiences of
their EMDR training. Results highlighted important issues around
their training experience, how cultural sensitivities play an important
part in the application of EMDR in Pakistan, and how the

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
India, the world’s second largest democracy, is known for its diversity in
terrain, culture and ethnicity. Prone to both natural and man made calamities
along with a high population density and not enough resources, mental health
does not rank high on the list of people’s priorities.
The earthquake of January 2001, was the second deadliest experienced by
the country through its recorded history. Trauma therapy, specifically EMDR
was still at its inception in the country with very few fully trained professionals.
These professionals put together a response that reached out to more than
16000 affected individuals, mostly children and adolescents and a few
parents, teachers and adults from the society.
The keynote address discusses the approach that was adapted in working in
Gujarat in the aftermath of the earth quake, the processes that were modified
to make them relevant both to the culture and the trauma experienced by the
people. The address also discusses the documented findings while work was
underway, the experiences and observations of the therapists along with a
few representative cases.
The data for this keynote was generated through the drawings of children
done as a part of the therapy itself. The impact on adolescents using the
Impact of Event scale will also be presented.

Abstract:
On 26th December 2005 the southern coastline of India was hit by a tsunami, which resulted in the deaths of over 28,000 people. This natural disaster caused the widespread devastation to the region. As part of the EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programme as series of EMDR Levels 1 and 2 were established in Chennai, Southern India offering training to mental health workers specifically working the tsunami affected areas. The project was funded by Cerner/First Hand Foundation project with the remit primarily focusing upon the trauma impact upon children. For the purpose of this presentation, the Chennai project will be outlined, providing insight into how the trainings were carried out from a teaching and learning perspective. It will also consider trauma experiences from a cultural viewpoint, which potentially challenges western constructs of PTSD phenomena. Particular attention wil be focused upon the aspects of the Negative and Positive Cognition and how this seems to be potentially a cultural component to the EMDR protocol. Indian practitioners determined that 'mind and body' are one in the same. Yet EMDR training emphasises the importance of distinguishing between thoughts and feelings. As a result many of the trainees struggled with this aspect. Discussion will also explore more widespread trauma characteristics of the tsumani including how the trauma impacted from an individual, family, and community perspective.

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:
EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP) began in 1995 as a response to the Oklahoma City bombing. An FBI agent who had previously received EMDR therapy called requesting help, stating that the local mental health professionals were overwhelmed by the task. After a needs assessment, approximately 100 volunteer clinicians trained in EMDR therapy were rotated in to provide pro bono treatment for the bombing victims and front-line responders. A program evaluation indicated that over 80 percent achieved beneficial treatment effects within three sessions, and, in the same year, a study using a delayed treatment control group also showed positive results (Wilson, Becker & Tinker, 1995). Subsequently, free trainings in EMDR therapy were offered and provided to 290 clinicians in collaboration with local agencies. The feedback was so positive that a 501(c)3 organization was soon established. [Excerpt]

Abstract:
During my Level I training, I couldn’t
help thinking about a family I’d treated
several years earlier while working in
Paterson, New Jersey, a
socioeconomically impoverished inner
city. The family was a grandmother and
four young grandchildren who had
recently been placed in her custody.
Their mother and little sister had been
brutally slaughtered with a knife by their
father while they were home. The four
surviving children were suffering from
nightmares about the incident, grief and
loss issues, and fears that their father
would get out of jail and come after them.
One of the children, a five-year-old girl,
had developed elective mutism. She had
narrowly escaped the same fate as her
mother and sister. The little girl had been
an eyewitness to the murders and as she
fled from her father, she slipped on her
mother’s blood and was nearly caught
by him. As I listened and learned at Level
I, I wished that I’d known EMDR when
I was working in Paterson.

Language: English

Abstract:
The Indonesian Province of Nanggroe Aceh Darusalam (NAD) is a region which is facing a unique set of problems,
among which is the protracted internal conflict, exacerbated by the tsunami on December 26, 2004. These events
have generated a widespread impact on the lives of the communities. One of the most crucial issues to be
addressed aside from legal, security, social and economic problems is the matter of health, including mental
health. In regards to mental health issues, comprehensive steps have been formulated into various mental health
care programs. One of the most needed programs is establishment of an educational system rooted in Indonesia
for the treatment of the posttraumatic stress syndrome (PTSD) of victims of crises and catastrophes through the
implementation of specific methods of treatment with a focus on the introduction of EMDR. With great support
from BMZ- TDH-Germany, HAP-Germany and Trauma Aid, capacity building on EMDR training has been
developed. Even though EMDR is highly effective as trauma healing therapy it is also a complex treatment to be
addressed in this specific population like in the province of NAD. Further than time constrain, limited numbers of
trauma therapist available and high numbers of severe cases that urgently need to be treated, complexities also
arises from cultural and religious aspects. The society in NAD is marked by decade long isolation, violent conflicts
for political self-determination and the strict interpretation of the Islam. The Sharia (doctrine of the Islam
including moral and judicial duties) was introduced as part of the laws. Due to this condition, for the time being
stabilization technique in EMDR is the most common technique that can be of widely used. In this presentation,
varieties of stabilization technique that have been used in this population will be addressed. More specifically, as
culturally adjustable method in therapy, this presentation will also introduce several culturally acceptable
stabilization techniques such as combining religious rituals (chanting, reciting) as personal resource with
stabilization technique. These techniques might be useful for other population with similar culture and religion.

Abstract:
On December 26, 2004, an earthquake in the Indian Ocean triggered a catastrophic tsunami. In Sri Lanka, 35,000 people died, 21,000 were injured, and more than half a million were displaced. An EMDR training program was conducted as a joint project of three organizations: EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP), International Relief Teams (IRT), and the Sri Lankan National Counselors Association (SRILNAC). Between March and December 2005, 30 Sri Lankan counselors were trained in EMDR. These counselors demonstrated competence in EMDR on several measures, treated more than 1,000 children and more than 350 adult tsunami victims with EMDR in 2005, provided narrative reports and outcome measures for most of their clients, and formed the Sri Lanka EMDR Association (SEA). The crucial steps in establishing and implementing this training program are explained, with a summary of the subjective impressions and learning experiences most valued by the training team, including an excerpt from a trainer's journal. This information may be useful to future cross-cultural humanitarian efforts following large-scale disasters. [Author Abstract]

Emergency EMDR & ERP (Emergency Response Procedure): Treatment following natural man made disasters for victims experiencing immediate high stress and including the period of ASD. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, London, England.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
EMDR is a well established therapy for the treatment of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). It is believed that
PTSD can be reduced or prevented if treated early. Although usually used at a later time, EMDR has also been
used effectively in the immediate period following trauma. Victims of immediate trauma often exhibit “silent
terror” or extreme stress .The Emergency Response Procedure (ERP), described in the Humanitarian Assistance
Programs (HAP) Disaster Manual, was developed to deal with victims of natural and man made disaster within
hours of exposure to trauma. Participants in this workshop will learn how to respond to these clients in the
immediate aftermath of trauma, utilizing Debriefing and ERP. This same basic approach can be applied in the
event of strong abreaction during the initial phase of History-taking, and prior to the Preparation Phase of EMDR.
Similarly, treatment with ERP may also be considered for patients exhibiting this “silent terror” or extreme stress
during initial treatment by first responders at the scene of an accident or in ambulances en route to medical
facilities. Case examples will be presented to illustrate the successful treatment of Acute Stress Disorder (ASD)
with survivors of the earthquake in Turkey and the Tsunami in Thailand, and with victims of terror and war in
Israel. In this presentation the Recent Events Protocol will be examined, with particular emphasis on modifying
the Positive Cognitions (PC) in the face of continuing ongoing danger. The EMDR Group Protocol will be
presented and followed by a practicum. [There are 2 PDF files.]

Abstract:
The Sri Lankan society is hugely affected by combat related stress as a result of the 30 year armed conflict. Combatants as well as a large number of civilians including members of the LTTE have undergone a tremendous amount of war related stress for the last 3 decades. There had been large military operations where the combatants were directly exposed to hostile battle conditions. Following these traumatic combat events a considerable number of soldiers became psychologically wounded. Deplorably Psychological wounds of the Eelam war were not addressed appropriately. As a result of the armed conflict in Sri Lanka a callous wave of PTSD, Depression, Somatization, and Adjustment Disorders etc has been generated. Many cases are not yet diagnosed entirely and following the late reactions of combat trauma the numbers would be high. To heal the war trauma in Sri Lanka an effective psychotherapeutic method was needed. In 2005 the EMDR HAP trained Sri Lankan mental health clinicians to use EMDR to deal with psychological trauma. EMDR was effectively used to treat Sri Lankan combatants. Many of the EMDR sessions were conducted under the supervision of the EMDR HAP facilitators. Following these treatment the Sri Lankan combatants with PTSD and Depression showed positive therapeutic outcome. Their psychological distress reduced significantly. This article reveals the efficacy of EMDR in the treatment of four combatants with PTSD and two with Depressive Disorder. After 5 to 8 sessions of EMDR most of the veterans became free of their disturbing symptoms and today living productive lives.

EMDR training is always a challenge. Training paraprofessionals

way is an even greater challenge. Under the auspices of
EMDR-HAP, we recently offered training to paraprofessionals in Nepal,
who work with victims of torture. The training consisted of four key
elements:
1. The paraprofessionals who participated had been trained and
were experienced in effective counseling methods other than EMDR.
2. The training was tailored to the needs of the trainees, to
the needs of their clients, and included a significant amount
of supervised practice.
3. It was a combined effort with a visiting trainer and a seasoned
EMDR therapist who was associated with and had prepared the
trainees for the training.
4. This local clinician offered immediate and on-going follow

Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
After war 1992–1995 in Bosnia and Herzegovina (BH), whole population was highly psych-traumatized. Mental health therapists had no enough capacities to meet needs of population. They are permanently in need to increase their psychotherapy capacities. EMDR is a powerful, state-of-the-art treatment. Its effectiveness and efficacy has been validated by extensive research. National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) recommended it as one of two trauma treatments of choice.
Aim:
To describe non profit, humanitarian approach in sharing skills of Eye Movement Reprocessing and Desensitization (EMDR) to mental health therapists in BH from Humanitarian Assistance Program (HAP) of UK & Ireland.
Method:
Authors described educational process considering the history of idea and its realization through training levels and process of supervision.
Results:
Highly skilled and internationally approved trainers from HAP UK & Ireland came four times to Psychiatry Department of University Clinical Center Tuzla in BH where they provided completed EMDR training for 24 trainees: neuro- psychiatrists, residents of neuro-psychiatry and psychologists from eight different health institutions from six different cities in BH. After finishing training process, trainees are obliged to practice their EMDR therapy in daily practice with real clients under the supervision process of HAP UK & Ireland trainers to become certified EMDR therapists. Regarding big physical distance between supervisors and trainees, supervision will be realized via Skype Internet technology.
Conclusion
Psychotherapy capacities of mental health psychotherapists in postwar BH could be increased with enthusiastic help of EMDR trainers from HAP UK&Ireland.

Abstract:
In March 2007 an EMDR Europe HAP project, in conjunction with the University of
Birmingham, commenced in Northern Pakistan in the aftermath of the earthquake that
occurred in the region October 2005.
Presently over 75 mental health workers have now been trained in EMDR. In August 2009
six of these Pakistani mental health workers had successfully completed their EMDR
Facilitator training. As a means of evaluating their EMDR training a Q Methodology was
utilised.
Q-Methodology allows a researcher to explore a complex phenomena from a subject´s
point of view by using a distinct approach which rates the value of 25 statements in order
from least to most desirable. These statements related to EMDR clinical practice, cultural
application of EMDR, EMDR research development, and their experiences of their EMDR
training.
Results highlighted important issues around their training experience, how cultural
sensitivities play an important part in the application of EMDR in Pakistan, and how the
EMDR trainings can be adapted and improved for the future.

Abstract:
In March 2007 an EMDR Europe HAP project, in conjunction with the University of Birmingham & Edge Hill University,
commenced in Northern Pakistan in the aftermath of the earthquake. Presently over 75 mental health workers have now
been trained in EMDR. In August 2009 six of these Pakistani mental health workers had successfully completed their EMDR
Facilitator training. As a means of evaluating their EMDR training a Q Methodology was utilised. Q methodology provides
a foundation for the systematic study of subjectivity, a person’s viewpoint, opinion, beliefs, and attitudes (Brown 1993). It is
an inverted form of factor analysis which then considers discourse patterns. Typically, in a Q methodological study people
are presented with a sample of statements about a topic called the Q-set. By Q sorting research participants give their
subjective meaning to the statements, and by doing so reveal their subjective viewpoint (Smith 2001) or personal profile
(Brouwer 1999). These individual rankings (or viewpoints) are then subjected to factor analysis to determine factor solution
and interpretation. Results highlighted important issues around the facilitators training experience, how cultural sensitivities
play an important part in the application of EMDR in Pakistan, and considered how EMDR trainings can be adapted and improved for the future.

Abstract:
Mental health professionals have been trained in using EMDR with trauma victims throughout the world. However, the EMDR-Humanitarian Assistance Program (EMDR-HAP) was formed in 1995 as a nonprofit organization to provide assistance and training to local mental health professionals/psychotherapists within the United States and internationally who are managing the nearly overwhelming task of providing psychotherapy to the victims of large scale traumatic events. This includes natural disasters, e.g.: earthquakes, floods, firestorms, hurricanes; military personnel and civilians in war zones; victims of large scale accidents, e.g.: the family members of the victims of TWA flight #800; and victims of sexual assault and terrorist acts, e.g.: the Oklahoma City bombing. The EMDR-HAP personnel have been trainers and group facilitators from the EMDR Institute who have volunteered their time and expertise to provide treatment and to train local mental health professionals in EMDR.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
The poster presents two short case studies – vignettes. Both represent an illustration of interactions between stabilization techniques and trauma confrontation using ERMDR in the psychotherapy of PTSD. The first case portrays a part of a longer and more complex psychotherapy of a woman violently raped by a strange man. The second one exemplifies a short-term psychotherapy of a young woman who developed PTSD after being repeatedly attacked by a dog from a neighbor’s house. Each case in its own way shows the need for both stabilization and trauma-reprocessing and the role of providing real safety in the environment is highlighted.

Abstract:
An EMDR-HAP team provided three EMDR sessions to 21 Gulf State clinicians 2½ to 3 years after Hurricane Katrina. This presentation investigates the impact of treatment on clinicians’ suffering from the stress of disaster on their emotional health. The hypotheses that clinicians receiving EMDR treatment would show statistically significant reductions in depression, anxiety, and trauma symptoms at one week post-treatment were supported. Implications of results include adding a treatment component to EMDR-HAP trainings for clinicians in disaster stricken areas. Clinicians’ trauma resolution could lead to improved learning of EMDR, greater immunity to compassion fatigue, and hence have EMDR reach exponentially into the community and the public practice domain.

begonnene Ausbildungsprojekt fortzusetzen.
Seit Anfang des Jahres 2007 engagiert sich Trauma Aid /HAP-Deutschland in einem Projekt,
bei dem indonesische PsychotherapeutInnen für die Behandlung traumatisierter Menschen in
der Region Aceh auf Sumatra ausgebildet werden. Silke Mehler und Dr. Andrea Möllering
haben im EMDRIA-Rundbrief Nr. 11 - 2/2007 darüber berichtet. Die Region Aceh war von dem
Tsunami im Indischen Ozean am 26.12.2004 mit 160.000 Toten und mehr als 500.000
Obdachlosen besonders gravierend betroffen. Eine psychosoziale Versorgung war bis dahin
kaum und eine psychotraumatologische Fachbehandlung der in großer Zahl traumatisierten
Bewohner überhaupt nicht möglich. Das Projekt versucht, diese humanitäre
Katastrophensituation zu mildern. Es ist auf drei Jahre bis Ende 2009 angelegt und wird von
der Bundesregierung (Bundesministerium für wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit und Entwicklung,
BMZ) finanziert und von Terre des hommes federführend betreut.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
In a project carried out by Trauma Aid-HAP Germany between 2007 and 2009 and sponsored by Terre des Hommes
and the German Official Development Assistance more than 3200 adult and child clients were treated
for mental disorders related to traumatic experiences after the Tsunami in 2004 and the civil war in Aceh/
Indonesia.
An accompanying monitoring and research component provided detailed diagnostic data before and after therapy.
This guided both the therapeutic process, and the training process in psychotraumatology. Also with this
component the long term effectiveness of the interventions was assessed. In turn these findings were related to
various traumatic events, socio-economic conditions and other non-psychological factors that influenced therapy
outcome. Particular attention was paid to a variety of cultural implications entailed in using therapies such as
EMDR in a non-Western, deeply religious and traditional context. Main results, implications for further research
and future intervention strategies will be addressed.
