1. Dunne, T., & Farrell, D. (2009, March). Accredited, brand-named psychotherapies and the standard of evidence: A reply to Davidson. Clinical Psychology Forum, 195, 3-4.
Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
Prof Davidson also trots out that old chestnut of McNally’s (1996 a & b) regarding EMDR to wit:
“What is new is not effective and what is effective is not new”. This has been effectively rebutted
by Perkins & Rouanzoin (2002) who convincingly, even for the most rabid of sceptics,
demonstrated that McNally, in dismissing EMDR as just another variant of systematic
desensitisation, failed to notice that, unlike EMDR, systematic desensitisation is not particularly
helpful in the treatment of PTSD. Perkins & Rouanzoin also showed how McNally misreported
data to support his contentions regarding EMDR whiles simultaneously excluding or ignoring
Van Etten & Taylor’s (1998) meta-analysis. Van Etten & Taylor concluded that EMDR is not
simply a variant of imaginal exposure, a conclusion which contradicts McNally’s argument but is
omitted by him. [Excerpt]

2. O'Shea, K. (2008, June). Anger, imagination and EMDR – what EMDR has taught us about the importance of anger and how to facilitate its safe release. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Assocation, London, England.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Jaak Panksepp’s text, Affective Neuroscience (1998), informs us of the vast amount of neurological data available
to show that, like all mammals, anger is one of our basic affective circuits. Yet it is not identified as such in the
diagnostic manual, at least here in the States. Only the destructive outcomes of angry behaviors are included.
Guiding EMDR sessions over the past 17 years has given me the opportunity to observe the nondestructive
release of anger as a protective response to harmful (traumatic) experiences. Imagination appears to provide us
with an innate ability to acknowledge the degree of harm, and to experience, at a physical level, the capability to
protect ourselves and others, if anything similar recurs. Following that release, I consistently see what I call
“Compassion-with-Protection”, spontaneously expressed. Others call it “forgiveness”. Because of their
experiences with destructive anger and our cultural avoidance of anger, clients often have difficulty allowing
their angry feelings to be felt and released during EMDR work. Letting them know they have this capability can
enable them to “just notice what happens” during trauma reprocessing. This workshop will address, via
description and case examples, how EMDR has clarified the nature of anger. It will specify how EMDR clinicians
can support their clients in releasing anger non-destructively (by clearing the anger circuit during Preparation,
teaching them how the Imagination works - for self-use and during reprocessing, - and identifying the most
efficient targeting sequences), so they can update their systems to their current level of capability and fully
experience the “Compassion-with-Protection” that naturally follows.

Abstract:
Je voudrais partager avec vous mon bonheur de pratiquer l'EMDR et de la communication des résultats dans ma spécialité (ORL Ear Nose Throat) associée à une compétence dans phoniatrique. Je n'ai jamais réussi à guérir des patients présentant une hyperacousie douloureuse à l'aide de l'analyse transactionnelle et de la thérapie comportementale et cognitive. Ces personnes ont tendance à s'isoler, cesser de travailler, devenir ou sont socialement phobique. J'ai reçu des patients dans l'incapacité de travail. Ils sont obligés de porter un casque pour se protéger des bruits extérieurs. Leur situation est aggravée par l'acouphène, car si elles s'isoler pour se protéger contre le bruit qu'ils perçoivent encore plus leurs acouphènes.
Depuis que j'utilise l'EMDR, ces personnes ne guérir. L'autre jour, une personne qui avait souffert de l'hyperacousie pendant douze ans et même dû arrêter de travailler à cause d'elle, m'a fait écrire un document dans lequel je l'ai noté sous sa dictée qu'elle se trouva guérie. Ce certificat a été destiné à son médecin de l'entreprise afin d'éviter l'incapacité, un processus qui était en cours. Depuis, elle a pu circuler dans un train dans la zone entre deux voitures (pas loin de 100 dB) et n'a pas souffert. Un enfant, même crié à côté d'elle et elle n'a pas non plus se sentir quelque chose de désagréable. Elle est étonnée et je le suis aussi
L'objectif était de supporter le bruit intense d'une formation en passant sur un pont alors qu'elle était sous le pont. Il a été la pire situation pour elle parce que la plus intense en termes de décibels. Elle étudie plusieurs canaux dans sa mémoire jusqu'à ce qu'elle se souvenait d'un avortement horrible. Les bruits, les mots de l'équipe médicale, tous les souvenirs audience ont été poignées. C'est seulement avec l'EMDR que j'ai réussi à traiter les hyperacousie jusqu'à disparition. J'ai reçu cette personne 7 fois ¾ d'heure. Avant l'EMDR, j'ai parfois reçu jusqu'à deux ans, ces patients à la vitesse d'une session tous les deux pue et il a eu, au mieux, une amélioration de leur confort. Le bonheur de ce dernier patient était telle que j'ai eu à le partager. Depuis, elle va sur les forums de discussion pour encourager les personnes qui souffrent de ce trouble.
I would like to share with you my happiness to practice EMDR and to notice it results in my specialty ENT (Ear Nose Throat) associated to a competence in Phoniatric. I never managed to cure patients presenting a painful hyperacusis by using the transactional analysis and the behavioral and cognitive therapy. These persons tend to isolate themselves, stop working, become or are socially phobic. I received some patients in incapacity to work. They are obliged to wear a helmet to protect themselves from outside noises. Their situation is aggravated by tinnitus because if they isolate themselves to protect themselves from the noise they perceive even more their tinnitus.
Since I use EMDR, these persons do cure. The other day, one person that had been suffering of hyperacusis for twelve years and even had to stop working because of it, made me write a document where I noted under her dictation that she found herself cured. This certificate was intended for her company doctor to avoid the incapacity, a process that was in progress. Since then, she was able to circulate in a train in the zone between two cars (not far from 100 DB) and did not suffer. A child even screamed next to her and she also didn’t feel anything unpleasant. She is astonished and so am I.
The target was to bear the intense noise of a training passing on a bridge while she was under the bridge. It was the worst situation for her because the most intense in terms of decibels. She investigates several canals in her memory until she remembered a horrible abortion. The noises, the words of the medical team, all the hearing recollections were handles. It is only with EMDR that I managed to treat the hyperacusis until it disappearance. I received this person 7 times ¾ of an hour. Before the EMDR, I sometimes received up to two years these patients at the rate of a session every two reeks and it led to at best an improvement of their comfort. The happiness of this last patient was such that I had to share it. Ever since, she goes on forums of discussion to encourage the persons who suffer from this disorder.

Abstract:
Whenever an EMDR treatment session becomes problematic, consider this self-administered instrument when reflecting on this session. EMDR consultants can also use this measure in their consulting groups to assist consultees in understanding when work with clients have an impact on the clinician. The purpose of using the Clinician Awareness Questionnaire includes the following: (1) To assist in raising awareness of what may be triggering the clinician; (2) To assess what may be coming from the clinician and what may be coming from the client; and (3) To develop EMDR Relational Strategies. Different problems can arise in different phases of the protocol. Sometimes, problems for the clinician may occur in Phase 1 when a client shares information that evokes negative arousal; or Phase 2 when the client has trouble understanding the elements of preparation or wants to get going processing trauma prematurely and the clinician has a negative response; or Phase 3 when there is a problem structuring the Assessment piece. Sometimes, client information may not evoke negative arousal in the clinician until Phase 4 when the client is actively processing. Often times, the clinician's triggers are from old memories. These memories may be explicit; at other times, implicit (somatosensory). As clinicians begin to notice these moments in themselves, they may aid themselves and their clients in continuing productive processing by using the Clinician Awareness Questionnaire. The Clinican Awareness Questionnaire Script is provided. [PsycINFO Database]

5. Cornil, L. (2013, April). De kracht van het NU in EMDR [The power of NOW in EMDR]. Presentatie op Het congres EMDR Vereniging EMDR Nederland, Nijmegen, Nederland.
Language: Dutch
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Deze uiteenzetting brengt een theoretisch-filosofische kijk op het tijdsconcept in EMDR. Sinds het prille begin speelt het tijdsconcept een centrale rol in de EMDR benadering. Aan de basis van het AIP model ligt het idee dat geheugennetwerken vervrozen zijn in de tijd (Shapiro 1995). De informatie is op een disfunctionele manier gestockeerd in het vervrozen nu en kan op elk moment worden getriggerd. In EMDR hebben patiënten (en therapeuten) het moeilijk om het NU van de negatieve cognitie te pakken te krijgen. Patiënten begrijpen niet wat gevraagd wordt en raken verward wanneer therapeuten vragen wat ze nu over zichzelf denken als ze denken aan toen. In de EMDR basistraining wordt aangegeven dat het vinden van een adequate negatieve cognitie een moeilijk deel is van het EMDR protocol, maar wel een noodzakelijk deel.
Het NU is wat op dit moment gebeurt. Er is geen verleden, enkel de huidige perceptie van het verleden. Net zoals er geen toekomst is, enkele de huidige perceptie van mogelijkheden. Het heden is datgene waarmee men zich identificeert: wat je ziet, geloof je: wat je op een gegeven moment gewaarwordt, wordt de realiteit van het NU. Wanneer de patiënt getriggerd wordt in de perceptie van het kind, wordt de patiënt het kind en de tijdsperceptie wijzigt.
Het punt dat in deze uiteenzetting naar voor wordt gebracht, is dat verandering ontstaat wanneer de patiënt stopt met zich te vereenzelvigen met het verleden dat daardoor het NU wordt. In EMDR wordt de patiënt door de therapeut uitgenodigd om dingen te laten gebeuren en te merken wat er verandert. Tijd heeft beweging nodig om te bestaan: de wijzers van de klok, de zon in de lucht, de rimpels die verschijnen op de huid verwijzen allemaal naar tijd. In plaats van de pijnlijke informatie op een afstand te proberen houden, die zich bevindt in de niet-tijd zonder beweging, wordt de patiënt juist uitgenodigd om de beweging te observeren die kan ontstaan door de positie van de dubbele aandacht in te nemen: één voet in de reële tijd en één voet in de niet-tijd. We zullen linken met mindfullness aangeven.
This statement brings a theoretical-philosophical perspective on the concept of time in EMDR. Since the very beginning the concept of time plays a central role in the EMDR approach. At the base of the AIP model is the idea that in the memory networks vervrozen time (Shapiro, 1995). The information is stored in a dysfunctional way vervrozen now and can be triggered at any time. In EMDR, patients (and therapists) is difficult to the NOW of the negative cognition to catch. Patients do not understand what is required and get confused when therapists ask what they think about themselves when they think of when. In the EMDR basic training indicated that finding an adequate negative cognition is a difficult part of the EMDR protocol, but a necessary part.
The NOW is what is currently happening. There is no past, only the current perception of the past. Just as there is no future, some of the current perception of opportunities. The present is that with which one identifies: what you see, you believe what you become aware at any given time, the reality of the NOW. When the patient is triggered in the perception of the child, the patient is a child and time perception changes.
The point in this discussion forward is brought, is that change occurs when the patient stops to identify with the past that result it is NOW. In EMDR, the patient by the therapist invited to make things happen and to notice what is changing. Time needs movement to exist: the clockwise direction, the sun in the sky, the wrinkles that appear on the skin all refer to time. In place of the painful information try to keep at a distance, which is located in the non-time without movement, the patient is invited to precisely observing the movement which may be caused by the position of the double attention to take: a foot in real time, and a foot in the non-time. We will link with mindfulness state.

Abstract:
In dit artikel wordt de behandeling beschreven van een vrouw met een ernstige eenmalige traumatische ervaring. Na een moeizame start waarbij de cliënte aanvankelijk psychiatrisch-psychotherapeutisch wordt begeleid, komt er een spectaculaire verbetering na één sessie EMDR. Deze verbetering houdt echter slechts tijdelijk stand, onder meer omdat cliënte zich plotseling erg bedreigd voelt ten gevolge van een gerechtelijke beslissing. Deze tijdelijke terugval illustreert hoe de maatschappelijke en juridische context bijdragen aan het verwerken van ernstige traumatische gebeurtenissen. Tot slot volgt een reflectie op allerlei therapeutische dilemma’s bij planning van deze traumabehandeling.
This article describes the treatment of a woman who was victim of a severe traumatic experience. Since a psychotherapeutic and psychiatric approach only resulted in a small amelioration, an EMDR session was planned resulting in a spectacular improvement. The improvement however was temporarily undone when the woman received a judicial notice stating that her offender was taking the case to Supreme Court. This setback illustrates how social and judicial context attributes to the processing of extreme traumatic experiences. The article concludes with a reflection on the therapeutic dilemmas concerning this trauma treatment.

Abstract:
Herkesin geçmişinde büyüklü küçüklü travma yaşantıları vardır.
Deprem, taciz, tecavüz gibi bir defada olan büyük travmalar olabileceği gibi çok göze çarpmayan ama süreklilik sergilediği için kişiyi ilerideki yaşantısında olumsuz etkileyebilecek olan küçük ve orta büyüklükte travmalar da vardır. İkinci gruptakileri "olay" dan ziyade süreklilik arz eden "durumlar" olarak isimlendirmek sanırım daha doğru olur. Bu gruptakilerin kişi üzerinde ileriki yaşantılarında, büyük olarak nitelendirdiklerimizden daha az etki yapacaklarını söyleyemeyiz. Bu tanımlamada büyük-küçük ayrımını yaparken kastedilenin daha çok dışarıdan bakan birisinin bu olayın ciddiyeti ile ilgili görüşü olduğu izlenimini ediniyoruz. Ancak psikolojik sağlık açısından önemli olan kişin bu olay ya da durumu iç dünyasında nasıl yaşadığıdır. Kişi çocukluğunda yaşadığı ve bir başkasının travmatik olarak isimlendireceği bir durumun etkisi ile ileride psikolojik bir problem geliştirmek zorunda değildir. Aynı şekilde, dışarıdan bakan birisinin fark edemeyeceği ama kişinin çocukluğunda maruz kaldığı olumsuz bir olay ya da süre giden bir durum o kişinin ileride psikolojik bir sıkıntı geliştirmesine neden olabilir. Örneğin, babasının yaptığı şeyleri beğenmediğini ve büyük başarılar dışında yaptığı küçük şeyleri görmediğini algılayan bir çocuk bu süre giden deneyimlerin etkisi ile ileri de ancak çok başarılı olduğu durumlarda takdir edileceği hissine sahip olabilir ve enerjisinin büyük kısmını önemli gördüğü insanlardan büyük başarılar sağlayarak takdir almaya adayabilir. Yukarıda tanımladığımız anlamda, yani kişinin ruhsal dünyasında uzun dönemli olumsuz etki yaratan bir durum olması anlamında bu durum tarvmatiktir. Diğer bir deyişle, küçüklüğünde bu kişinin maruz kaldığı durum o kişi üzerinde travmatik bir etki yaratmış ve o kişinin geleceğini etkilemiştir.
Everyone has experiences of past trauma, large and small.
Earthquake, harassment, rape, such as major trauma at a time, which can be very subtle, but the person to exhibit continuity in the future could adversely affect the life of the trauma, there are also small and medium-sized. The second group are "event" rather than from the persistent "cases" as I think I would be more accurate to name. In Group on the future life of these people, do not say a large effect in less than nitelendirdiklerimizden. While this distinction meant little more than identifying large-outsider's view of someone with the impression that the seriousness of this incident ediniyoruz. However, in terms of psychological health status of the person inside the world of this event or how you live. Contact someone else's traumatic childhood and live in the future be called the psychological impact of a situation to develop is not a problem. Similarly, outsiders can not but notice one person while a child is exposed to an adverse event or a situation to develop that person's future can cause psychological distress. For example, outside the great achievements of his father and his little things he did not see things beğenmediğini detect the effect of experiences with a child going forward at this time but would be appreciated if the feeling may have to be very successful and very successful in providing energy to the majority of people it deems important to appreciate the adayabilir. Sense defined above, that person's mental world in terms of long-term negative impact that this is a situation tarvmatiktir. In other words, this person's childhood exposure to a traumatic effect on the situation created by that person and that person has affected the future of.

Language: German
Format: Newsletter
Abstract:
Bei der gemeinsamen Betrachtung von EMDR mit familientherapeutischen Ansätzen fallen zunächst die Gegensätze auf.
EMDR wird üblicherweise im Einzelsetting angewendet. Die Behandlung steht meist im Kontext von bestimmten Krankheitsdiagnosen (typischerweise von traumabedingten - aber auch anderen - Störungen).
In der (systemischen) Familientherapie wird eine Diagnostizierung möglichst vermieden, Konzepte werden "verflüssigt", Symptome werden im Hinblick auf ihre Wirkung im (Familien-)System hin untersucht. Beispielsweise wird ein Patient als "Symptomträger" innerhalb der Familie bezeichnet. Man sucht also nach dem Sinn oder Nutzen, den die Symptomatik für die Familie hat. Insofern ist man recht weit davon entfernt, gezielte Interventionsmethoden zu suchen, mit denen dann der einzelne behandelt wird, um ein Symptom zu beseitigen. Allerdings wurde dies von den Begründern der Familientherapie keineswegs für ausgeschlossen erklärt (vgl. bspw. Stierlin et al. 1977, 16).
EMDR ist dementsprechend in der familientherapeutischen Literatur und den einschlägigen Fachzeitschriften bisher so gut wie nicht zur Kenntnis genommen worden. Eine Ausnahme bildet The Family Therapy Networker im Jahr 1993, der dem Thema EMDR ein Special Feature widmet (vgl. Butler (1993) und O'Brien (1993)).
Von Seiten der EMDR Praktizierenden gibt es durchaus Hinweise auf die Vereinbarkeit. Tinker & Wilson (2000, 229) verweisen auf die Nützlichkeit der Ergänzung der EMDR-Arbeit durch familientherapeutisches Vorgehen. Lempa (2000) beschreibt die Verbindung der EMDR-Einzelbehandlung mit familientherapeutischen Gesprächen innerhalb des stationären Settings und berichtet über positive Erfahrungen im Hinblick auf die Akzeptanz der Behandlung in den Familien.
Ich halte die wechselseitige Betrachtung der Ansätze für sehr fruchtbar und möchte hier einige Gedanken und Erfahrungen dazu darstellen.
In the common view of EMDR with family therapy approaches, first fall to the opposition.
EMDR is usually applied in individual settings. Treatment is usually in the context of specific disease diagnoses (typically from trauma-related - errors - but also others).
In the (systemic) family therapy, a diagnosis will be avoided where possible, concepts will be "liquefied" symptoms in terms of their effect in the (family) system were investigated. For example, a patient is a "symptom carrier" within the family. Therefore, we look for the meaning or benefit that the symptoms for the family. In this respect it is quite far from seeking specific intervention methods by which the individual is then treated to remove a symptom. However, this was by the founders of family therapy not declared excluded (see, for example, Stierlin et al. 1977, 16).
EMDR has been accordingly in the family therapy literature and the relevant journals previously taken almost no notice. The Family Therapy Networker an exception is in 1993, the subject of EMDR devotes a special feature (see Butler (1993) and O'Brien (1993)).
Sides of the EMDR practitioner, there are indications of the compatibility. Tinker & Wilson (2000, 229) point to the usefulness of supplementing EMDR work with family therapeutic approach. Lempa (2000) describes the connection of individual EMDR treatment with family therapy calls within the inpatient setting and reported positive experiences with regard to the acceptance of the treatment in the home.
I think the mutual inspection of approaches for very fruitful and would like to present some thoughts and experience to do so.

Abstract:
After my first training with Francine
in 1989, in Israel, I was excited by
this promising method and infected
with her enthusiasm. I went on to
use EMDR whenever I could in my
work at the Nazareth Ilite Educational
Psychological Service and in
my private practice, as well as during
my present sabbatical leave in London.
I often incorporated EMDR into
my work and felt comfortable and
confident with a wide range of clients,
ages, and difficulties and was
ready to explore further with the
method. Since my Level II training
in November of 1992, I have learned
to be more discerning, perhaps even
overcautious for the time being, in
applying EMDR. Reflecting over my
earlier years of bolder and freer uses
of EMDR, I did not encounter any
negative effects. The worst that happened
was that nothing much happened,
and this occurred in a minority
of cases (perhaps in less than
20%). Even with those cases, I had
noticed that there may have been a
tendency to underestimate positive
effects. One of the subtle difficulties
I observed assessing outcomes was
that the cognitive changes that occurred
were sometimes so spontaneous
and "naturally" that the client took
them for granted. I first notice this
phenomenon clearly in two cases.

Self-help techniques can often do the trick and may make it possible to deal with negative emotions, images and thoughts that arise. For instance, here's one from my book, Getting Past Your Past: Take Control of Your Life with Self-Help Techniques from EMDR Therapy: Whenever you find yourself bothered by negative self-talk (you know, that voice that tells you how defective you are), notice how your body feels. Then think of a cartoon character with a funny voice like Elmer Fudd, Popeye or Daffy Duck and make your critical inner voice sound like that character.

EMDR saccades, cognitive interweave,
and all other variations fail to
effectively shift the cognition, he tells
the client, 'I would like you to notice,

take over the voicing of that belief
and say it to you ...." [An example of
this would be 'you don't deserve to be
loved'.] He does this with eye movements
induced and often at this point
reports that the client will dramatically
shift the polarity when the belief has
been externalized by his voice.
The response is often from the positive
polarity, such as, 'I have every
right to 'be loved' or 'the heck with
you, I'm tired of hearing that', etc.
He states that with particularly fragile
clients, this intervention must be
carefully framed, such as, 'I am taking
over the negative voice that is in

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
This presentation will focus on integrating EMDR into an overall treatment plan and utilizing EMDR in conjunction with other
cognitive behavioral approaches. Strategic utilization of EMDR to move clients through the various stages of recovery will be
discussed.
1) In the first stage of treatment, safety, stabilization, coping, and development of a strong therapeutic relationship are emphasized.
Treatment focuses on decreasing (1) suicidal and parasuicidal behavior, (2) treatment - interfering behavior, and (3) quality-of-life-interfering behavior (Linehan, 1993). Efforts are made to assist the client in developing a repertoire of cognitive-behavioral coping
skills; relevant skills address grounding, trigger awareness, basic self - care, mindfullness, distress tolerance, affect regulation,
assertiveness, relaxation, self - monitoring, stress inoculation, and cognitive restructuring. At this stage, EMDR can be used to shift
negative cognitions which interfere with commitment to treatment, skill development, and the restoration of hope. The following are
examples of negative cognitions whlch interfere with first stage stabilization goals:
- I will only get acknowledgment of my pain if I act out. - I don't deserve to feel better.
- If I take care of myself, no one will know I hurt. - I'm pathetic, a failure.
- I will die/go crazy fiom these feelings. - I can never do anything right.
- I can't stand this feeling. I must cut myself. - Don't trust anyone or anything.
Newly learned information about coping can be reinforced and further integrated in the course of an EMDR session. Clients can be
encouraged to notice their ability to tolerate affect and to practice their assertiveness skills, grounding skills, mindfulness skills, etc.
2) In the second stage of treatment, the focus is on processing traumatic memories and decreasing behaviors related to post-traumatic
stress. EMDR interventions can be designed to assist clients with specific recovery tasks or issues:
- fear/terror and associated avoidance
- sense of powerlessnesshelplessness
- responsibility/accountability
- safety - self, others, environment
- self-esteem/self as bad, defective, unlovable
- lack of individuation
- dependency
- anger
- grief/mouming
- trust/mistrust
- fear of abandonment
- guilt/self-blame
- shame/self-loathing
With regard to each of these issues, maladaptive schemas can be addressed via effective cognitive interweave strategies. Ideas for
supplementing EMDR work with written assignments, imagery exercises, recovery rituals, and planned in vivo exposure will be
discussed. Strategies for handling possible problems, obstacles, or resistance at this stage will also be noted. Finally, the role of ongoing
assessment and data collection in making decisions about EMDR targets will be addressed.
3) In the third stage of treatment, the emphasis is on personal development and increased connection with others. Recovery tasks and
issues addressed via EMDR include:
- Increasing intimacy and healthy connections - Increasing self-esteem
- Increasing self-efficacy and sense of mastery - Reclaiming sexuality
- Increasing self-efficacy and sense of mastery - Identity exploration and development
- Establishing goals, initiating new projects, and taking reasonable risks
At this stage, EMDR can be useful in detecting remnants of shame, fear, etc. In addition, EMDR can be used to reduce anxiety and
increase confidence as a client sets his/her sights on the future and prepares to face new and challenging situations. EMDR can aid
in the generalization of skills and adaptive schemas across time and place. It can facilitate the integration of a new, more positive
and vital self-image.
The presentation will conclude with a videotape case presentation highlighting relevant recovery tasks and issues in applying
EMDR at a specific stage of treatment.

Abstract:
Questo mio lavoro di tesi rappresenta una rassegna degli studi compiuti negli
ultimi anni, sui disturbi del comportamento alimentare. Negli ultimi vent’anni
molto è stato detto su questa patologia che ha attirato l’attenzione non solo di
clinici e specialisti ma anche dei mass media. Si tratta, purtroppo, di disturbi che
si stanno imponendo sempre di più nella società occidentale e che iniziano a
comparire anche nelle zone più povere del mondo. Come sarà possibile notare
nel primo capitolo, questi disturbi interessano principalmente, ma non
esclusivamente, soggetti di sesso femminile e gli indici di prevalenza indicano un
valore attorno all’1% per la bulimia nervosa nelle giovani donne adulte, mentre
per l’anoressia nervosa questa percentuale oscilla attorno lo 0,3%. Dopo una
descrizione generale di queste patologie, mi sono occupata dei disturbi specifici
evidenziati dal DSM-IV, redatto dall’American Psychiatric Association nel 1996:
Anoressia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Disturbo da Alimentazione Incontrollata
(BED). Questi disturbi vengono descritti singolarmente, analizzandone i fattori di
rischio e le caratteristiche cliniche e diagnostiche; nella descrizione ho tralasciato
i fattori eziopatogenetici della Bulimia Nervosa e del BED perché sono
rintracciabili tra quelli evidenziati per l’Anoressia Nervosa.
My thesis is a review of studies made in
last year, about eating disorders. Over the past twenty years
Much has been said about this disease that has attracted the attention not only to
and clinical specialists, but also the media. This is, unfortunately, of disorders
are becoming more and more in Western society and start to
appear even in the poorest parts of the world. As you will notice
in the first chapter, these problems primarily, but not
exclusively, female subjects, and prevalence rates indicate a
value of around 1% for bulimia nervosa in young adult women, while
for anorexia nervosa, this percentage fluctuates around 0.3%. after a
general description of these diseases, I have dealt with specific disorders
highlighted by the DSM-IV, prepared by the American Psychiatric Association in 1996:
Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, binge eating disorder
(BED). These disorders are described individually, analyzing the factors
risk and the clinical and diagnostic features, I have omitted in the description
causative factors of Bulimia Nervosa and BED because they are
detectable among those highlighted for Anorexia Nervosa.

Abstract:
What a weird thing – that was my first thought, as I read a short notice about EMDR for the first time. A work in a psychiatric/psychotherapeutic day treatment programme, the number of multiple-traumatised patients increased rapidly. One patient decided to climb the roof and jumped, nearly to her death, driven by the memories of long-ago cruelties her father had done to her. With this in mind, I was conscious of urgently needing a method to treat these patients and finding something to manage the challenges of intrusive pictures and memories.

Abstract:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a method of psychotherapy developed by psychologist Francine Shapiro as a treatment for psychological distress associated with trauma, when she chanced to notice a connection between a decrease in her own emotional distress over a personal concern after having spontaneously moved her eyes back and forth. Integrating her eye movement (em) observation with aspects of, at least, imaginal exposure, cognitive therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness teachings, and adding an early positive psychology idea, Shapiro developed a treatment, which she informally tested. Shapiro (1989a) first systematically tested her work in a wait list control study of 21 subjects recruited from local mental health centers, including a DVA veteran readjustment center. Remarkably, all of her first 21 subjects showed profound single session desensitization effects. In addition, Shapiro (1989b) published a case study in a journal edited by Joseph Wolpe, an originator of behavior therapy, in which Wolpe, in an editorial footnote, endorsed Shapiro’s rapid effects from his own informal replication.

Abstract:
This
presentation
will
be
a
theoretical,
philosophical
approach
to
the
concept
of
time
as
utilized
in
EMDR.
From
the
very
beginning
the
concept
of
time
plays
a
major
role
in
the
EMDR
approach.
At
the
basis
of
the
AIP
model
lays
the
idea
of
memory
networks
frozen
in
time
(Shapiro
1995).
The
information
is
dysfunctionally
stored
in
the
frozen
now
and
can
be
triggered
at
any
moment.
In
EMDR
we
all
struggle
with
the
now
of
the
negative
cognition.
Patients
do
not
understand
and
get
confused
when
therapists
ask
about
beliefs
they
have
about
themselves
now
as
they
think
about
the
past.
In
trainings
it
is
announced
as
the
most
difficult
part
of
the
EMDR
protocol.
But
it
is
an
essential
part.
The
now
is
what
is
happening
right
at
this
moment.
There
is
no
past,
only
the
present
perception
of
the
past.
As
there
is
no
future,
only
the
present
perception
of
possibilities.
The
present
is
what
one
identifies
with.
When
one
sees,
one
believes:
what
is
experienced
at
a
certain
moment
becomes
the
felt
reality
in
the
now.
When
the
patient
is
triggered
into
the
perception
of
the
child,
she
becomes
the
child
and
time
shifts.
The
point
this
workshop
wants
to
make
is
that
change
comes
about
as
the
patient
stops
identifying
with
the
past
thus
making
it
the
now,
but
instead
is
invited
by
the
therapist
to
let
things
happen
and
to
notice
what
moves.
For
time
to
exist
movement
is
needed:
the
hands
of
the
clock,
the
sun
in
the
sky,
the
wrinkling
of
the
skin
all
indicate
time.
Instead
of
trying
to
keep
at
a
distance
painful
information
which
exists
in
an
eternal
now
without
movement,
the
client
is
invited
just
to
observe
the
movement
that
can
come
about
by
taking
the
position
of
double
attention:
one
leg
in
real
time
and
one
leg
in
no
time.
We
will
explore
links
with
the
process
of
mindfulness.
Este
taller
presentará
un
planteamiento
teórico
y
filosófico
al
concepto
del
tiempo
tal
como
se
usa
en
EMDR.
Desde
el
mismo
comienzo,
el
concepto
del
tiempo
ejerce
una
función
fundamental
en
el
planteamiento
de
EMDR.
La
idea
de
redes
de
recuerdos
congelados
en
el
tiempo
se
encuentra
en
los
cimientos
del
modelo
AIP
(Shapiro,
1995).
La
información
se
almacena
de
forma
disfuncional
en
el
ahora
congelado
y
que
puede
“dispararse”
en
cualquier
momento.
En
EMDR,
todos
luchamos
contra
el
ahora
de
la
cognición
negativa.
Los
pacientes
no
entienden
y
se
confunden
cuando
el
terapeuta
pregunta
por
las
creencias
que
tienen
respecto
a
sí
mismos
ahora
cuando
piensan
acerca
del
pasado.
En
las
formaciones,
se
presenta
como
el
elemento
más
difícil
del
protocolo
de
EMDR.
No
obstante,
supone
un
elemento
esencial.
El
ahora
es
lo
que
ocurre
en
este
preciso
momento.
No
existe
el
pasado,
únicamente
la
percepción
presente
del
pasado,
al
igual
que
no
hay
futuro,
solamente
la
percepción
presente
de
posibilidades.
El
presente
es
aquello
con
lo
que
uno
se
identifica.
Cuando
se
ve,
se
cree:
aquello
que
se
vive
en
un
momento
dado
se
convierte
en
la
realidad
experimentada
en
el
ahora.
Cuando
al
paciente
se
le
dispara
hacia
la
percepción
de
la
niña,
se
convierte
en
la
niña
y
el
tiempo
cambia.
Lo
que
pretende
dejar
claro
este
taller
es
que
el
cambio
se
produce
a
medida
que
el
paciente
deja
de
identificarse
con
el
pasado,
lo
que
lo
convierte
en
el
ahora,
sino
de
la
mano
del
terapeuta,
permite
que
las
cosas
ocurran
y
se
fija
en
lo
que
se
mueve.
Para
que
exista
el
tiempo,
es
necesario
el
movimiento:
las
manecillas
del
reloj,
el
sol
en
el
cielo,
el
arrugar
de
la
piel,
todo
indica
tiempo.
En
lugar
de
intentar
mantener
distante
la
información
dolorosa
que
existe
en
un
ahora
externo
sin
movimiento,
se
le
invita
al
cliente
a
simplemente
observar
el
movimiento
que
se
puede
producir
al
adoptar
la
postura
de
la
atención
escindida:
con
una
pierna
en
el
tiempo
real
y
una
en
la
intemporalidad.
Exploraremos
las
relaciones
con
el
proceso
de
“mindfulness”
(conciencia
plena).

Abstract:
Compact Focusing (on the sensual, emotional, cognitive and somatic aspects)
The client is asked to close her eyes , focus on one picture of the positive memory and enter it anew. While tapping the therapist says: “Take all the time necessary to relive it… with all your senses...notice what you hear, smell and see...allow your feelings, sensations and thoughts to emerge...breathe into it...let yourself be there for a few moments.“ The therapist gives short tapping (up to 14 taps) The therapist inquires about the feelings, thoughts, and sensations and writes them down. ((If the partially positive past resource includes negative elements, suggest focusing on the positive aspects. If the client doesn’t succeed she should find another positive memory).
Proceed until there is no change. [Excerpt]

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Incidence of heart disease: 43 % of all death cases are
caused by heart disease. In total this means 32,294 persons a
year in Austria.
Stationary treatment receiving 314,010 patients, with an average
term of hospitalization of 8 days (Statistics Austria 2008). For Germany the total figures are around 10 times higher. This
is the largest single patient group.
11.25% of the heart disease patients get PTSD, adjustment
disorder or other reactions to severe stress (Titscher. 2008).
Only for Austria a minimum of 35.000 patients could benefit
from a trauma treatment like EMDR. For Germany the
figure rises up to 350,000 patients a year who could benefit
from EMDR. To physicians the problem is well known, but
the only treatment they can offer is medication or further diagnostics
like angiography which doesn't cure the problem.
Despite the high number of traumatized heart patients, there are
only publications about trauma as a risk factor for heart disease.
There are a few publications about heart disease causing trauma,
but there are nearly no publications about treating trauma
caused by heart disease.
Typical symptoms for trauma after heart attack: Feeling of
tightness or pressure on the chest, tightness in the throat, with
difficulties in breathing. Ascending feeling of heat from the
stomach, trembling, weeping, fear and panic. Flashbacks of the
heart attack, with symptoms looking similar to angina pectoris.
Reduced stress tolerance by getting easily angry or depressed.
Useful questions for differential diagnostics between organic
and mental symptoms: What are the symptoms? How long do
they last? Were there any symptoms prior to the heart disease?
Which symptoms were present during the heart attack? Is it
distressing to remember the heart attack? How distressing on a
SUD-scale 0 to 10.
What are the medical findings? Two specifics:
1. Mainly I use the butterfly hug or tapping on the chest for
processing. This form of tapping is easy applicable and the patients
like it.
2. Weaving in Positive Cognitions (PCs) during the processing,
makes the processing less stressful, I offer PCs during the
processing and look if they help to reduce the stress.
Useful PCs: I survived. I am still alive. I am through. It is a long
time ago. i have trust in my body and my heart. If that doesn't
work: Even when my trust in my heart is shattered, I love and accept
myself. I am grateful. I live as long as I may I am confident.
Usually I use them in that succession with some adoptions according
to the process.
What is special about my presentation.
1. Hear about a large group of patients who can benefit from
EMDR.
2. Mostly heart disease are to consider as mono-traumatic. With
some specific knowledge and experience they are not difficult
to treat.
3. Notice the advantage of bipolar tapping on the chest.
4. Understand the advantage of weaving in PCs during the
processing.
5. The big question is: How to install EMDR in the rehabilitation
system?

Abstract:
Dr. Tobin will show why it is important to address the often overlooked therapeutic relationship; how to notice transference and
countertransference issues, how to foster the therapeutic alliance; and how to utilize EMDR to install the alliance, once it has been established, as a resource to foster increased self-support, grounding, enhanced self-esteem
and self-soothing capacities. Relevant psychodynamic theory on transference and countertransference, the applicability of this approach to various diagnostic groups will be discussed, contraindications will be
cited and clinical examples will be presented.
