1. Jacobs, S. (1995, July 1). The eyes have it:  Rapid eye movement is a new and controversial therapy that’s being used to treat mental illnesses. St. Paul, MN:  St. Paul Pioneer Press, Metro Final, Express, 1D.

Language: English

Format: Newspaper

Abstract:
The jury is still out on Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, or EMDR, a controversial new therapy for such mental illnesses as depression and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. But presentations at the recent American Psychiatric Association convention show that what started as a fringe therapy just a few years ago is being taken seriously by mainstream psychiatrists. ``In the 10 years I have been working with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, I have not seen this level of excitement,'' said Dr. Steven Southwick, a Yale University psychiatrist who heard the new research presented at the conference in Miami Beach.

4. Shillington, P. (2001, October 4). On post-traumatic stress. Miami, FL: The Miami Herald, Final, Living, 3E.

Language: English

Format: Newspaper

Abstract:
The treatment I use is EMDR, a technique developed by California psychologist Francine Shapiro that has shown to be successful treating post-traumatic stress. The technique is designed to process traumatic memory by mimicking the way people generally process thoughts into memory, during the Rapid Eye Movement (REM) phase of sleep. You can put patients into rapid-eye movement in several ways, including having them move their eyes back and forth as if following the ball in a tennis match, or tapping their hands. They concentrate on the troubling images in their mind or repeat `I feel horror,' for example, and the brain can then begin to process it. I work with children with nightmares or fears and they usually go away fast. Even if you don't understand it, EMDR can still work.

Abstract:
Otro tratamiento nuevo es el EMDR (Eye Movement Disensitation and Reprocessing), o reprocesamiento y desensibilización a través del movimiento de los ojos. ``Cuando existe algún trauma, o se está deprimido, esas imágenes están almacenadas en el lado derecho, que es el cerebro emocional. La persona piensa en ese recuerdo y determina la imagen que acompaña ese pensamiento. A lo mejor siente el corazón apretado o dolor en distintas partes del cuerpo. Eso se procesa a través del movimiento de los ojos, buscando el equilibrio entre el hemisferio derecho y el izquierdo, que es el del pensamiento, para que pueda liberar esas emociones''.

Another new treatment is EMDR (Eye Movement Disensitation and Reprocessing), or reprocessing and desensitization through eye movement. `` When there is a trauma, or are depressed, those images are stored on the right side, which is the emotional brain. The person thinks that memory and determines the image that accompanies that thought. Maybe the heart feels tight or sore in different parts of the body. This is processed through the movement of the eyes, seeking a balance between the right and left, which is thought so that you can release those emotions.''
