Abstract:
Infertility, miscarriage, and perinatal loss can be among life’s most deeply painful experiences. Losses associated with these life events can be traumatic. For individuals and couples accessing fertility treatments, pre-existing trauma and phobias can complicate their efforts to achieve a successful pregnancy. This presentation outlines common emotional responses to infertility and reproductive loss. It reviews the role of EMDR in treatment of trauma and phobias and applies this knowledge to clients experiencing difficulty conceiving and/or maintaining a pregnancy. Case studies illustrate how EMDR has been used with this client group.

Abstract:
Já é sabido no meio científico ligado ao EMDR e percebido diariamente nos consultórios dos psicoterapeutas que utilizam essa técnica inovadora que a terapia por EMDR tem um alcance muitas vezes maior do que o inicialmente planejado. A presente apresentação objetiva relatar um desses casos: o caminho da psicoterapia de Ana (nome fictício), de trinta e seis anos de idade, desde seu pedido inicial de amenizar sua autocobrança excessiva, passando pelo momento em que percebeu que sua crença negativa mais atuante poderia ser um dos fatores que impediam sua fertilidade, até sua gravidez, antes imaginada como impossível. Após quase três anos de tentativas frustradas de engravidar naturalmente, Ana procurou uma clínica de reprodução humana. Nos sete anos seguintes Ana passou por vários tratamentos, entre eles duas inseminações com resultado positivo que resultaram em abortos retidos algumas semanas depois, e uma fertilização com sucesso até o final, a gestação da qual nasceu seu filho, hoje com cinco anos de idade. Embora sem um diagnóstico preciso, os médicos que a acompanharam durante todos esses anos, levando em conta seu histórico, relatavam que Ana apresentava uma esterilidade sem causa aparente, com somente 1% de chance de engravidar naturalmente. Este trabalho sistematiza e compartilha a fase do tratamento por EMDR desta paciente que resultou na gravidez tão celebrada. Palavras-chave: EMDR; esterilidade; infertilidade; gestação. 4. 3.

It is known in scientific circles connected to EMDR and perceived daily in the offices of psychotherapists who use this innovative technique that EMDR therapy has a range many times greater than originally planned. This presentation aims to report a case in point: the path of psychotherapy Ana (not her real name), thirty-six years old, since its initial order to mitigate their excessive autocobrança past the moment he realized that his negative belief more active could be one of the factors that hindered their fertility until her pregnancy before imagined as impossible. After nearly three years of failed attempts to conceive naturally, Ana sought a clinical human reproduction. In the seven years following Ana underwent various treatments, including two inseminations with positive outcome that resulted in miscarriages held a few weeks later, and a successful fertilization until the end of the pregnancy which was born his son, now five years old. Although without an accurate diagnosis, doctors who accompanied her all these years, taking into account its historical, reported that Ana had a sterility without apparent cause, with only a 1% chance of getting pregnant naturally. This paper systematizes and shares the stage EMDR treatment for this patient that resulted in pregnancy so celebrated. Keywords: EMDR; sterility, infertility, pregnancy. 4th. 3rd.

4. Zimmermann, E. (2010, June). The potential of EMDR in gynaecology and obstetrics: Special application with infertile women. In Female issues. Symposium conducted at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Hamburg, Germany.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
The author of this presentation works as psychologist and psychotherapist in a clinic in Fribourg/Switzerland in the department of gynecology and obstetrics. Various applications of EMDR are used, both in gynecologic and obstetrical outcomes. A special patient population, namely infertile women in search of becoming pregnant, are an important part of the work. The purpose of this presentation is to show the special approach that E. Zimmermann has developed by working with infertile women. Infertile women - in opposition to sterile women - are women with no apparent medical reason why they do not become pregnant. These infertile women often pass a particularly long and difficult phase to get pregnant. They are always disappointed by the repeated negative outcome of all their efforts to become pregnant. This is a very difficult phase in the life of the couple too, and not few couples separate during this phase. Especially women feel unable being a mother and their self-esteem is very low. This is why the author has developed a special application of EMDR to this population. The aim is to cope with the difficulties related to these different stages. Another purpose is preparing a desired and possible pregnancy. Women mostly have very different anamnesis, some also including trauma. They have in particular a personal pregnancy or non-pregnancy history, e.g. also abortion. In addition the medical assistance utilized for getting pregnant is quite different for every case. Lots of them end up by using fertilization techniques, which have a low chance of success. This makes it rather difficult for EMDR to treat these women i a standardized way. The author of this workshop has developed a flow-chart providing an concept of applying EMDR at different stages with different types of targets in order to compare the outcomes. By working with EMDR and infertile women, it appears that they become pregnant quicker than what the statistics predict. There are also women who become pregnant after working with EMDR before they start the fertility-program. This is why the author prepares a research study to try to figure out if the EMDR-process can have a positive impact on fertility.
