2. 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:
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is gaining acceptance as efficacious treatment for PTSD for individuals but not for couples. This article reports three case studies of couples in which EMDR is combined with Gestalt therapy in a single session to resolve relational trauma effects, increase empathy and awareness in the supportive partner, and deepen intimacy within the couple. Case studies are described, and implications for research and clinical applications are discussed. [Author Abstract]

Abstract:
Das in den 80er Jahren von der amerikanischen Psychologin Francine Shapiro veröffentlichte Verfahren EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing) beinhaltet als zentrale Komponente, dass die Aufmerksamkeit des Patienten sich auf eine traumatische Erinnerung und die damit verbundenen Gedanken und Gefühle richtet, während gleichzeitig rhythmische Augenbewegungen induziert werden. (Shapiro 1998)
EMDR eignet sich signifikant gut zur Behandlung der Posttraumatischen Belastungsstörung (PTBS). Hierbei handelt es sich um ein Störungssyndrom, meistens bestehend aus vegetativer Übererregtheit, Erstarrung, Schlaflosigkeit, Angst und Depression, das häufig auftritt nach sehr belastenden Ereignissen oder starken Bedrohungen, wie z.B. schweren Unfällen, Naturkatastrophen, Folter, sexuellem Missbrauch, Vergewaltigungen, usw.
Das Störungsbild der PTBS zeigt große Ähnlichkeiten mit dem Chronischen Schmerzsyndrom. Chronischer Schmerz kann als eigenständiges Trauma gelten mit dem eigenen Körper als Opfer und Täter. Oft finden sich auch Traumata im Vorfeld oder begleitend. Chronischer Schmerz ist signifikant assoziiert mit Posttraumatischer Belastungsstörung, mit Angsterkrankungen, Depressionen und weiteren psychischen Störungen.
EMDR wird inzwischen auch mit guten Erfolgen eingesetzt bei anderen Erkrankungen, z.B. Suchterkrankungen, Depressionen, Angst- und Zwangsstörungen. Überzeugende Erfolge stellen sich ein bei der Behandlung auch sehr kleiner Kinder mit unterschiedlichen psychischen Erkrankungen. (Tinker, Wilson 1999)
Bislang gibt es aber noch relativ wenig Forschungen über die Wirksamkeit von EMDR bei Akutschmerz, bei Chronischem Schmerz und im Bereich der Psychosomatik. Es ist allerdings bekannt, dass EMDR sich bei Akutschmerz eignet zum Abbau der den Schmerz häufig begleitenden Angst und darüber hinaus bei Chronischem Schmerz zur Erhöhung der Schmerztoleranz, zu mehr Entspannung, zu positiven kognitiven Strategien, zu Desensibilisierung und zur Ablenkung. (Groth, Rogers 1994).
EMDR führt zu nachweislichen neurologischen Veränderungen und damit einhergehenden vom Patienten berichteten positiven Veränderungen im Beschwerdebild. (van der Kolk 2000)
EMDR lässt sich nach ersten Untersuchungen ebenfalls erfolgreich einsetzen zur Behandlung von Phantomschmerzen. (Wilson nach Tinker, Wilson 2000).
That in the 80s by the American psychologist Francine Shapiro published procedures EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing) includes as a central component that the patient's attention on a traumatic memory and associated thoughts and feelings directed, while rhythmic eye movements be induced. (Shapiro 1998) EMDR is significantly well to the treatment of post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This is a disorder syndrome, consisting mostly of vegetative over-arousal, numbness, insomnia, anxiety and depression that occurs very often after stressful events or severe threats, such as serious accidents, natural disasters, torture, sexual abuse, rape, etc. The disorder of PTSD shows great similarities with the chronic pain syndrome. Chronic pain can be considered as a separate trauma of his own body as victims and perpetrators. Often also found in the run or incidental trauma. Chronic pain is significantly associated with post traumatic stress disorder, with anxiety disorders, depression and other mental disorders. EMDR is now used with good results in other diseases, such as Addiction, depression, anxiety and compulsive disorders. Convincing results are adapting to treat even very young children with different mental disorders. (Tinker, Wilson 1999) So far there is relatively little research on the effectiveness of EMDR in acute pain, Chronic pain and in the field of psychosomatic medicine. However, it is known that EMDR is suitable for acute pain to reduce the pain often associated with anxiety and also to increase the pain Chronic pain tolerance, more relaxation, positive cognitive strategies to desensitization and distraction. (Groth, Rogers 1994). EMDR leads to demonstrable neurological changes resulting from the patient and reported positive changes in symptoms. (Van der Kolk 2000), after initial investigations EMDR can also be used successfully to treat phantom pain. (Wilson to Tinker, Wilson 2000).

Abstract:
Homicide perpetrators have been observed to report symptoms of PTSD directly related to involvement in the offense itself. A single-case study is presented, which describes the application of eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing for a male perpetrator of homicide. The nature of the difficulties these offenders experience is considered and the need for appropriate psychological intervention in such cases is discussed. [Author Abstract]

Abstract:
This work presents psychological specificities of situations where torture victims are
witnesses at the court trial of perpetrators at the same time. Witnesses are subject to the
risk of secondary traumatisation, retraumatisation and revictimatisation, which may lead to
the deterioration of existing PTSD symptoms. Starting from the very act of reaching the
decision whether to testify, witnesses are in a state of ambivalence associated with a need
for truth and justice, the need that perpetrators should be adequately punished and thus
certain compensation be provided as well as with fear of the course that the trial itself may
take, they being partially aware of the risk for retraumatisation and retraumatisation. The
author sets forth the need for psychological-psychiatric preparation of the witness prior to
the trial, as well as co-operation between judicial organs and psychiatric-psychological
service. The paper features examples from the Centre for Rehabilitation of Torture Victims

Language: English
Format: Journal
Abstract:
A literature review of current treatment models for child molesters and contemporary theories of etiology suggests a gap between theory and practice. Despite emerging recognition of the importance of addressing etiological issues in sexual offender treatment, many programs resist addressing the trauma sequelae of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) in those sex offenders where it is present. Adding trauma treatment to standard sexual offender treatment was identified as a means to closing some of that gap. 10 child molesters with reported histories of CSA were treated with eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. Subsequent to adding this trauma resolution component, there was improvement on all six subscales of the Sex Offender Treatment Rating Scale as well as decreased idiosyncratic deviant arousal as measured by the penile plethysmograph. The current study reviews qualitative data collected during treatment and at posttreatment interviews. [Author Abstract]

12. Went, M., & Struik, A. L. (2010, June). The use of EMDR with infants. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Hamburg, Germany.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Often it is said that traumatization in the preverbal
period cannot be treated. Doctors, psychologists, police officers
tell parents to wait until the child is older, so it can talk about
it. In this presentation we will demonstrate the contrary. That
EMDR is a very useful method for processing preverbal traumatic
memories in infants.
We will start by explaining how to structure the EMDR sessions,
illustrated by videotapes of boy (nearly three) and his parents
who was traumatized by medical treatments starting in the first
months of his life. We will explain how to access and activate
the traumatic memories, how to help the child during desensitization
by timing and dosing stimuli, and how to determine
whether the traumatic memory is completely processed.
Then we will illustrate the devastating consequences on the
development of an infant of preverbal traumatization. These
consequences usually are underestimated by parents, pediatricians and even psychologist. As these children get older, their
development is more and more disturbed and they behave like
children with ADHD of Autistic disorders, and sometimes even
get diagnosed.
After EMDR these infants start to recover and grow rapidly in
emotional en social development and the use of play. Their oppositional
behavior changes in daily life activities as changing
a diaper, brushing teeth, going to bed and changing clothes.
They become less resistant.
Parents see that the presumed characteristics of their child
change and looking back they recognize those as symptoms of
traumatization. This is even clearer with children who are
traumatized by medical treatment. They are usually referred to
EMDR therapist because of their resistant behavior in the hospital
which makes medical treatment impossible. The urgent requirement
of medical care is often the main reason for staking
treatment. The realization of the impact of the medical treatment
on their child is very painful for the parents. Nowadays parents are often asked to assist during these treatments and
they feel as perpetrators. If necessary we also offer parents
EMDR.
New and unique: The use of EMDR in infants is quite unique
because it requires knowledge of infant psychiatry and traumatization
and EMDR It is a very complicated but rewarding
treatment.
The aspect of traumatization and the use of EMDR in medical
treatment is very underestimated The material in this workshop
is new and unique for the use of EMDR in these children.
Learning objectives:
- Participant will learn the basic tenants of the assessment of
preverbal traumatization.
- Participant will learn the basic tenants of the assessment of
preverbal medical traumatization, which is very much underestimated.
- Participant will learn how to access and activate the traumatic
memories in infants and how to help the child during desensitization
by timing and dosing stimuli.
-Participant will learn how to determine whether the traumatic
memory is completely processed in these infants.

13. Farrell, D. (2008, June). Using EMDR with survivors of sexual abuse perpetrated by roman catholic priests. Poster presented at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, London, England UK.
Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
This paper is based upon a qualitative study which investigated the experiences of survivors of sexual abuse
perpetrated by Roman Catholic Priests. The premise of the research was based upon a perceived assumption that
such a distinct form of sexual traumatology generates unique trauma characteristics not accounted for within the
existing Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder conceptual frameworks (DSM-IV.TR; ICD-10). In making sense of survivors
experiences evidence arose which indicated the majority of the research participants considered ‘God’ to have
been integral within the abuse, manipulated either by design or default by the perpetrator. These idiosyncratic
trauma characteristic created significant anxiety and distress in areas such as theological belief, crisis of faith and
fears surrounding participant’s own mortality. This paper will outline a particular case of a survivor of such sexual abuse and their experience of EMDR discussing the ways in which such sexual traumatology is both similar and
different to other survivor’s experiences and will critically consider the potential effectiveness of using EMDR
with this particular client group. [Note: Poster and text PDFs]

Abstract:
In the Sri Lankan conflict, the impact of war and extreme stress on civilian population has been highlighted over the years. However, war traumas experienced by the combatants were not adequately shown. Over the past few decades, some extreme reports had dehumanized the images of the combatants and publicized combatants as perpetrators of violence. But a very few realize that the war trauma affected the soldiers in tremendous proportions.
