1. Pham, T., & Willocq, L. (2005, June). Assessment of traumatic stress among incarcerated homicide perpetrators. Poster presented at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Brussels, Belgium.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Homicide perpetrators present a high prevalence of major mental disorders,
particularly major depression associated with a substance diagnostic, and
schizophreny (Cote & Hodgins, 1992). Recently, it has been suggested that
the homicide behaviour itself may be conceived as a traumatic event
generating multiple symptoms (Gray, et a1., 2003; Pollock. 1999}. This study
assesses the relations between homicide and traumatic stress in a Belgian
prison population, on the basis of a self-report questionnaire (SASRQ).
Therapeutic implications of the results and relevance of EMDR practice in
homicide populations will be discussed.

Abstract:
The prevalence of co-occurring Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and Substance Use Disorder (SUD) in the criminal justice system is a serious issue for both men and women. The inattention to trauma before, during, and after involvement in the criminal justice system is problematic. Some research suggests that trauma-related disorders among those with SUD negatively affect post-incarceration outcomes (Kubiak, 2004). Therefore, from a practice and policy perspective, interventions addressing these co-occurring disorders should be made available to men and women within the criminal justice system.
Current research recommends a phased and integrated treatment approach for co-occurring PTSD and SUD. SAMHSA (2005) reports that the integration of substance abuse treatment and mental health services for persons with co-occurring disorders (COD) has become a major treatment initiative. The specific Integrated Trauma Treatment Program (ITTP) described in this report is one possible treatment approach for this challenging population. This report will outline the rationale for the ITTP implemented in the Thurston County Drug Court Program (TCDCP) in Olympia, WA. In addition, it is hoped that results from this project will be considered when making policy recommendations for Drug Courts and other programs in the criminal justice system, as well as other public and private substance abuse treatment settings.

3. Ramos-Ruggiero, L., & Sondergaard, H. P. (2008, April). Recovered traumatic memories through eye movements? A Case presentation from Sweden. Presentation at the 1st B-Annual International European Society for Trauma and Dissociation, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
This is a case presentation regarding the treatment of a severely traumatized woman
formerly treated for depression and PTSD following incarceration in prison,
“disappearance” of husband, and torture. After psychotherapy for several years, the
patient improved and started to work in a qualified job. After some years, however, the
patient returns because she has a feeling that the therapy was unfinished, and because of
remaining psychosomatic symptoms, difficulties breathing, obesity, overeating, and
recurrent urinary tract infections. The therapist then decided to try the resource installation
protocol. However, in an impulse, he asked her to concentrate on her bodily sensations.
Several video-recorded sequences illustrate how the patient, seemingly for the first time in
her life, discovered and re-experienced childhood trauma. It seems that the eye
movements during attempts at EMDR treatment made it possible to lift repression and
dissociation as well as to make processing possible, thus liberating the patient from a
heavy burden of mental and psychosomatic symptoms. At follow-up by the second author,
the patient is entirely asymptomatic, with low DES scores and is no longer obese.
Learning objectives:
1. Somatoform symptoms as a bridge to dissociated traumatic childhood experiences
2. How dissociation might lift during treatment
3. Recent research findings regarding the effect of eye movements on episodic
memory.

Abstract:
EMDR has been successful in treating trauma from childhood abuse in victims and survivors young and old.
With more than 3 million instances of child abuse reported annually in the United States and probably many more cases going unreported, social workers face an often daunting client list of children and adults who are or have been victims of abuse and neglect. Left untreated, these individuals’ chances of leading lives fraught with substance abuse, incarceration, unwanted pregnancies, and future psychological conditions are multiplied by many degrees.
In the last two decades, however, researchers have made major strides in developing methods for treating victims and survivors of child abuse, including therapies that work as well (and in some cases better) with children as with adults. Among the most successful of these treatments is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a therapeutic process that uses eye movements, sounds, and repetitive motions to help clients process and come to terms with traumatic memories more quickly than talk therapy alone. And since many children and some adults are unable to verbalize traumatic experiences, EMDR can often provide the breakthrough that more traditional therapies can’t.

5. Blore, D. C. (1997, September-October). Use of EMDR to treat morbid jealousy: A case study. British Journal of Nursing, 6(17), 984-988.
Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is a relatively new psychological intervention which has mainly been utilized to treat PTSD symptoms. The following case study of a 75-year-old World War II veteran, however, illustrates that such symptoms can present in less obvious ways. During his incarceration, the soldier had been subjected to systematic taunting by his Japanese captives. The resultant traumatic memories had been triggered in a range of social situations over the next 50 years, leaving a legacy of morbid jealousy which was quickly and effectively treated. Potential areas for research are indicated. [Author Abstract]
