Abstract:
Presenter: Filiz Kaya
The present study is carried out within a psychological
counseling project which is governed by Istanbul metroplitan Municipality. The study was designed to assess the effects
of Early EMDR Intervention (EEI) on the victims of a terrorist
bombing in Gungoren, Istanbul. Subjects were the victims of
a terrorist bombing in Gungoren, Istanbul. The participants
were selected from a pool of children and adults, who lived in
Gungoren and scored high on the Turkish version of 'Impact of
Event Scale' (IES) and PTSD Symptom Checklist. The subjects
were contacted 2 days after the bomb attack so that we were
able to measure the event impact right after the traumatic experience,
which will help us to demonstrate how EMDR affects
the impact of the event more accurately.
Eye Movement Desensitization (EMD) as an EEI technique was
used to treat the child participants, whereas Recent Traumatic
Event Protocol (R-TEP) which incorporates the EMD and Recent
Event (RE) protocols, was received by the adult participants
The therapists (EMDR certified therapists, who were receiving
supervision) met with the participants weekly to work only on
the trauma of the bombing and participants completed impact
of Event Scale prior to each session. The number of the sessions was restricted to the completion of EMD and R-TEP. The study
is completed with a three month follow-up. Analyses of the
data collected from the participants demonstrates the level of
effectiveness of EMDR in children and adults, in prevention of
PTSD and the use of EMDR as a crises intervention tool.

Abstract:
The present study is carried out within a psychological
counseling project which is governed by Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality. The study was designed to assess the effects
of EMDR Integrated Group Treatment Protocol (EMDR-ICTP:
on the child victims of a terrorist bombing in Gun Goren, Istanbul.
In this study the EMDR-IGTP was used with 60 children
who are in 5th, 3rd and 4th grade and effected by the event
(exposed, witnessed or their relatives harmed, etc.) with high
scores on the Turkish version of 'Impact of Event Scale' (IES).
Before the group session. Child Report of Post-Traumatic Symptoms
(CROPS) and a survey asking 5 stress-related symptoms
of their lives after the bomb attack were applied. The group sessions consist of: meeting with children. explaining trauma,
psychological debriefing, EMDR (Installing the safe place, assessment,
drawing the first picture, drawing the second and the
third picture, tapping, relaxation), healing story and art therapy.
Participants completed another survey about what they have
realized during and after their group experience.
The study is completed with a re-evaluation of one and three
months follow-up. Analyses of the data collected from the participants
will demonstrate the effectiveness of EMDR in group
setting with children for reducing traumatic symptoms and developing
new resources to handle problems. In this study the
effectiveness of EMDR is examined according to the difference
between the ages of children, and the level of exposure (witnessing,
watching on TV etc.) to the traumatic event.

5. Konuk, A. (2010, June). EMDR treatment of chronic daily headache and migraine. Symposium conducted at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Hamburg, Germany.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Chronic headache is a prevalent clinical problem
which affects negatively the majority of the population. The
most common type of headache is migraine and tension headache.
These can decrease the functioning and the quality of
life of people who suffer from headaches in different contexts
as work, family, school and social life. In addition, a lot of psychological
disorders such as depression and anxiety are seen or
occur in people who have headaches.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness
of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
on Chronic Daily Headache and Migraine. Within this
framework there are three goals, one of which is to measure the
efficiency of EMDR treatment on chronic headache population.
The second one is to develop an EMDR Headache Protocol so
that the treatment is standardized and will be used, revised and
updated by researchers and clinicians in the future. The third
one IS to find an answer to the question: How long does it take
to treat a headache? That is, to determine the minimum and
maximum sessions necessary for the treatment.
Method: The study is carried out at Gaziosmanpa,sa Hospital
Neurology Department in Istanbul with 11 Turkish patients
who had suffered from chronic daily headache and migraine.
The sample of this study consisted of 9 women and 2 males.
Results: The results demonstrated that the frequency, the intensity
and the duration of headaches were reduced by using
EMDR Also it was shown that the number of emergency visits
and the amount of painkillers used were decreased. The study
will be explained in more detail and the results will be discussed
during the presentation.
Our learning objectives are:
1. to gain theoretical information about the rationale of using
EMDR in treatment of chronic headache and migraine
2. to gain empirical information about the efficacy of this treatment
and
3. to discuss the EMDR Headache Protocol as well as the number
of sessions necessary for the treatment.
In previous studies, EMDR has been found to be efficient in the
treatment of chronic pain. Nevertheless, there was a gap in the
literature regarding the efficacy of EMDR in the treatment of
chronic daily headache and migraine.
The novelties that are provided by this current study are
1. It may be an alternative treatment for chronic headache and
migraine in the future
2. although the research question needs further investigation, it is the first empirical study which examines the effectiveness
of this treatment.

Abstract:
This pilot study was conducted at Gaziosmanpaşa Hospital, Istanbul, to investigate the effectiveness of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) on migraine headache by specifically treating traumas related to headaches. The sample consisted of 11 Turkish participants with chronic daily headache: 9 women (mean age of 31.7 years) and 2 men (mean age of 30.5 years). Participants had a history of migraine ranging from 2 to 30 years (mean = 12 years). Variables included participant daily ratings of headache frequency, duration, and intensity; medication intake; hospital emergency room (ER) visits; and scores on the Symptom Assessment-45 Questionnaire. The results showed a significant decrease in headache frequency and duration with no reduction in pain intensity. There was a significant decrease in the use of painkillers and ER visits. All results were maintained at 3-month follow-up, providing some preliminary evidence that EMDR may be effective and useful as an alternative treatment for migraine.

Abstract:
The Turkish Psychologists Association has initiated psychological treatment for earthquake victims through the Trauma Treatment Center, established jointly with experts from the American Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing Institute (EMDR). The Trauma Treatment Center was introduced on Wednesday by Dr. Emre Konuk, the director of the Turkish Psychologists Association's Istanbul Office, and representatives of EMDR Dr. Philip Manfield and Dr. James Knipe. Konuk said they had contacted EMDR three days after the earthquake for psychological treatment of the victims. Konuk, who noted that they had prepared a one-year program as the result of the cooperation, said they established a Trauma Treatment Center for carrying on work as an organization. The training of volunteer psychologists who will work at the center is being undertaken by EMDR, experts of problems related to trauma. Seventeen experts will come to Turkey twice at four-month intervals to provide training to 115 psychologists on active treatment techniques for trauma.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
EMDR is being increasingly – and successfully – utilized for a broader range of big “T” and small “t” traumas. Research indicates that adherence to the 8-phase protocol and the 3-pronged approach brings about the most successful outcomes in our clients. The problem in their application, however, is frequently “how?” A day in the life of an EMDR therapist can involve a plethora of symptoms: attachment difficulties, anxiety, Phobias, relational dysfunction, dissociation, and mood disorders, to name just a few client presentations. Much confusion and discouragement can arise as the clinician struggles with the variety of client presentations and the awkwardness of learning a significantly different approach to psychotherapy. Consultation experience reveals that it is most often psychotherapy. Consultation experience reveals that it is most often these two factors which bring about the unfortunate discrepancy between the numbers of those who take EMDR training and those who utilize it frequently. By means of a discussion of pre-screening typical and atypical case scenarios and the provision of a decision tree using appropriate resources and specialize protocols, participants will learn a more systematic way to conceptualize their cases. In addition, there will be a summary of frequently asked questions about the course of EMDR therapy garnered from the presenter’s consultees. And guidelines for keeping treatment on a course as common challenges in EMDR present themselves. This workshop is an outgrowth of “Decisions, Decisions ... Forks in the Road in EMDR: What, When and Why” presented at the EMDR Europe Conference in Istanbul and the EMDRIA conference in Philadelphia in 2006.
