1. Burns, M. (2009, March). The challenges of using EMDR with refugee and asylum seeking children/adolescents. Symposium conducted the 7th annual Conference of the EMDR UK & Ireland Association, Manchester, UK.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
This paper discusses the use of EMDR with refugee and asylum seeking
children and adolescents using clinical case examples and shares the clinician’s own personal
reflections on the lessons learned.
The challenges of working with this group are explored drawing on research findings as well
as the clinician’s experiences. Language and cultural differences can act as barriers to
assessing children’s mental health or their suitability for EMDR even though in some cases it
might be thought of as the treatment of choice. Working with Interpreters is often a key
feature of this therapeutic work. The challenges are discussed with direct reference to The
British Psychology Society’s recently published guidelines. There are ongoing stresses for these children and young people associated with displacement and their current situation in
the UK. These stresses contribute to their psychological distress.
Fear of being sent home or mistrust may also prevent them from providing full and accurate
information hindering the clinician from obtaining an accurate assessment or trauma
history.
The importance of good therapeutic skills as the basis of an EMDR Approach is highlighted
drawing upon a host of interventions (behavioural, physical, cognitive and motivational) to
support clients in building up their own resources so that they can manage their distress
between sessions. The therapist’s role in managing expressed emotions within the sessions is examined, not forgetting the impact of this on the therapist.

2. Kluft, R. P. (1995,December). The confirmation and disconfirmation of memories of abuse in DID patients: A naturalistic clinical study. Dissociation, 8(4), 253-258.
Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
The charts of 34 dissociative identity disorder (DID) patients in treatment with the author were reviewed for instances of the confirmation
or disconfirmation of recalled episodes of abuse occurring naturalistically in the course of their psychotherapies. Nineteen, or 56 %, had instances of the confirmation of recalled abuses . Ten of the 19, or 53 %, had always recalled the abuses that were ronfirrned. However, 13 of the 19, or 68%, obtained documentation . of events that were recovered in the course of therapy, usually with the use of hypnosis. Three patients, or 9%, had instances in which the inaccuracy of their recollection could be demonstrated. The forgetting oftraumatic
experiences, their reasonably accurate recovery in treatment, and the formation of pseudomemories in clinical populations were all documented in this study . This suggests that stances that are either extremely credulous of retrieved recollections or extremely skeptical of
retrieved recollections are inconsistent with clinical data, and therefore are not constructive influences on the contemporary scientifi c
study of trauma and memory. [Author Abstract]

Abstract:
O A aplicação do EMDR não leva ao esquecimento ou
à remoção da lembrança perturbadora. Acontece uma
compreensão do fato passado, levando a pessoa a dar um
novo significado a ele, ou seja, a informação fica arquivada,
mas não mais incomoda e nem gera sofrimento. O EMDR
é empregado também para tratar quadros resultantes de ansiedade generalizada, fobias específicas (avião, elevador,
altura, locais fechados, animais, etc), desordens de pânico,
dores crônicas, luto, depressão, dependência química e
compulsões (comida, cigarro, compras, jogos, etc.).
OA application of EMDR does not lead to forgetting or

Abstract:
Het is u vast wel eens overkomen.
Een goede vriend haalt
warme herinneringen op over
die ene zomerdag, gezellig samen
op het terras, waarop u besloot toch
maar voor dat veel te dure droomhuis te
gaan. Prachtig, alleen: u weet er niets meer
van. Maar die keer dat u zo’n ruzie had
toen de ander die eetafspraak was vergeten,
is nooit uit uw hoofd verwenen.
Hoe komt het toch dat het geheugen ons zo vaak in de steek laat bij het naar boven
halen van herinneringen van bijzondere
momenten en blijft het ons lastigvallen met
dingen die we het liefst waren vergeten?
En waarom laat het geheugen ons steeds
meer in de steek als we ouder worden?
You may probably have happened.
A good friend gets
warm memories of
that one summer day, socializing
on the terrace, where you decided yet
but much too expensive dream home
go. Beautiful, just, you know nothing
of. But that time you had a quarrel
when another dinner appointment that had been forgotten, is never out of your head weathered ones. How is it that the memory we so often let you down when up out of memories of special
moments and we continue to pester
things we like to have forgotten?
And why does our memory always
more in the lurch as we age?

5. Barre, K. (2010, June). Treatment of dissociative amnesia after vehicle accident with EMDR. In Accident victims. Symposium conducted at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Hamburg, Germany.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
There is doubt if dissociative amnesias, the forgetting
of traumatic memories, are a helpful condition for a patient or
not. Clinically especially difficult is the situation if amnesias occur
after an accident, where the condition is possibly organically
based (like in a brain injury). Often the problems that these
patients face in rehabilitation are difficult to understand and
often the interventions that usually work with brain injuries are
only partially effective.
These situation will be illustrated by two cases of severe post accident
amnesias (10 weeks and 10 months) and their treatment.
Video documentation of the cases and their EMDR treatment
will be shown and discussed. Usually effective treatments had
been ineffective in both. Both however lost their symptoms and
remember the incidents fully after trauma-specific treatment.
Both patients have been stable for a year after the termination
of treatment.

Abstract:
Défaut d’intériorsation des objets dans la théorie des relations objectales ou véritable pathologie de la consommation et du changement au carrefour des domains environnementaux et socio-culturels, les TCA constituent un probleme de santé sociale. Leur nature addictive est discutée.
Le problematique des TCA est rendue plus complexe par l’existence d’une lourde comorbidité dont les éléments pathologiques sont autant causes que conséquences. Notons que 40% des patients souffrant de TCA ont eu, à un moment de leur vie, un psychotraumatisme.
La thérapie EMDR permet une approche intégrative dans le traitement des TCA: un aspect cognitif indéniable, le processus associatif unduit par les stimulations alternées met souvent en lumuiere des matériaux reflétant des conflits intrapsychiques plus ou moins archaiques.
Le travail portant sur l’imagerie mentale ou les états dissociés du moi peut aussi etre associé dans les cas difficiles de patients souffrant de TCA Le présent atelier a pour but :
- D’éclairir les points clef des classifications nosographiques actuelles, notamment dans leur incidence thérapeutique, sans oublier les cas l’urgences.
- De présenter les aspects les plus récents du modèle bio-psychosocial des TCA, véritable clef de voute des interventions thérapeutiques, notommanent concernant la therapie EMDR. La therapie EMDR se veut indvidualisée selon l’histoire de vie de chaque patient.
La connaissance profounde de l’histoire de vie des patients avec leurs thématiques existentielles permet la construction de "clusters" multiples. Ceux-ci offrent un mode d’induction privilégié des processus associatifs de restructuration cognitive, émotionnelle, et corporelle proper à la thérapie EMDR.
- Des protocoles sont proposés selon cas et illustrés par quelques exemples et vignettes cliniques.
- De répondre à un maximum de questions durant l’atelier.

7. McFarlane, A. (2010, June). Understanding traumatic stress reactions - The linking of phenomenology, aetiology and treatment plan. Preconference presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Hamburg, Germany.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
One of the most intriguing aspects of traumatic stress has been the repeated learning and forgetting of lessons about its importance as a cause of psychopathology. It remains the case that the broader body of psychiatry and psychology has an ambivalent relationship with the field of traumatic stress and the nature of posttraumatic stress disorder. The origins of this ambivalence and their impact will be discussed. It is important that practitioners in the field of traumatic stress be aware of these barriers and how to address them in a research setting and clinical practice.
The underlying phenomenology of posttraumatic stress disorder will be explored and its neurobiological origins will be highlighted. It is important to deconstruct posttraumatic stress disorder into the different symptom components, as they have substantially different mechanisms underpinning their intensity and presentation. Posttraumatic stress disorder is a dynamic condition in which symptoms fluctuate with time and are substantially influenced by the environmental demands placed upon the individual.
It is often forgotten that somatic symptoms are a core element of the experience of individuals with PTSD. The nature of these somatic dimensions of distress and their significance will be discussed.
The epidemiology of posttraumatic stress disorder highlights how the prevalence of these conditions is seemingly increasing. However, this reflects the developments in the measurement of the effects of trauma in research settings. This has major implications for clinicians as to how best take a history about exposures to traumatic events. The evidence is that systematic investigation is critical and that unless questions are asked, symptoms will frequently go unreported. Recent evidence suggests that PTSD may be in fact more common than major depressive disorders. Equally, it should not be forgotten that depression is an important dimension of posttraumatic reactions. There is also an associated comorbidity with substance abuse. The risks associated with trauma exposure have a long tale of effect and these will be described.
The challenges of treatment will be discussed in the context of early intervention and workplace intervention. Treatment needs to be a sequential process where there are a variety of strategies, including EMDR, which can be used in treatment. The sequence of these strategies in treatment is a challenging question that has not been systematically addressed in research.
It remains the case that one of the primary issues in treatment is early identification, and this raises questions about the importance of screening in at-risk populations. Again, there are significant differences in opinion; however, the militaries around the world are now regularly screening populations returning from deployment. A recent novel approach to considering the issues of treatment is whether a staging approach should be used for conditions such as PTSD.
In summary, it is critical that clinicians have an explicit model of the mind and its neurobiology. Posttraumatic stress disorder can best be understood as an information processing disorder, which both impacts upon an individual's ability to engage with their day to day environment as well as integrate past experiences as a source of information to influence current behaviour. The integration and modulation of neural systems that manage environmental input is critical to adaptive functioning. The ways that these systems become dysregulated in PTSD will be highlighted and how these underlying deficits can be addressed in treatment will be focused upon.
A further issue that needs to be considered in the treatment of PTSD is the long-term risk of individuals, who have developed this condition, to have relapses after a successful intervention. Some long-term treatment outcome data will be presented.

8. Solomon, R. (2004, June). Utilization of EMDR with grief and mourning. In single trauma and grief. Symposium conducted at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Stockholm, Sweden .
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
EMDR is a treatment methodology that can be useful in the mourning process. Utilizing Theresa Rando’s framework, a protocol will be presented describing how EMDR can be applied through the mourning process. REMDR does not shorten the phases of assimilation and accommodation of the loss, but processes the factors that can complicate the mourning. EMDR can help the mourner deal with the following mourning processes: 1) Recognizing the loss 2) React to the separation 3) Recollect and re-experience the deceased and the relationship 4) Relinquish the old (external) attachments to the deceased and the old assumptive world 5) Readjust to move adaptively into the new world without forgetting the old 6) Reinvest. EMDR seems to facilitate the formation of an adaptive inner representation. We do not lose attachments to loved ones that die, they are transformed. We move from living in presence to living in absence. Memories of the deceased often emerge during EMDR treatment. It is the emergence of memories of the deceased that let us know and acknowledge the meaning of the relationship, the person’s role in our lives and identity. And enable us to carry the basic security of having loved and been loved into the future. We can go forward in a world without the deceased, because we have an adaptive inner representation to take with us.
