Behandeling van complex trauma: EMDR en meer hoe geef je zo’n behandeling vorm, welke valkuilen kunnen er zijn, welke plek heeft EMDR en hoe bewaak je de rode lijn bij deze vaak langdurige behandelingen? [Treatment of complex trauma: EMDR and more how do you form such a treatment, what pitfalls may exist, which place has EMDR and how do you monitor the red line in these often long-term treatments?]. Presentatie op de 6e congres van de Vereniging EMDR Nederland, Arnhem, Nederland.

Language: Dutch

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Behandeling van ‘Complex trauma’ is lastig, omdat er vaak op veel verschillende levensgebieden problemen zijn. Daarbij is er sprake van een opeenstapeling van traumatische ervaringen. Dit kan leiden tot een soort schrik of terughoudendheid bij behandelaren, om complex trauma adequaat aan te pakken. In deze workshop willen wij duidelijk maken dat complex trauma goed te behandelen is, mits men de ruimte heeft om een langere behandeling aan te gaan, een therapeutische relatie (met tegenoverdrachtelijke valkuilen) aan kan gaan met cliënten met een geschokt wantrouwen in hun medemens en men niet te snel terugschrikt en mits men goed overzicht houdt over het verloop van de behandeling. Wij presenteren een model dat richting geeft aan de behandeling van complex trauma. We gaan uit van het drie-fasen model (Herman, 1992) met stabilisatie, verwerking en integratie en vullen dit aan met handvatten voor praktisch gebruik. Dit model gebruiken we om op systematische wijze de verandermogelijkheden te kunnen bepalen bij complexe traumaproblematiek. We zullen uit elke fase een of meerdere technieken demonstreren en op een rijtje zetten hoe EMDR toegepast wordt bij de behandeling van j complexe traumaproblematiek.

Treatment of 'Complex trauma is difficult, because there are often many different areas of life problems. In addition, there is an accumulation of traumatic experiences. This can lead to a kind of fear or reluctance of clinicians to adequately handle complex trauma. In this workshop we want to make clear that complex trauma can be treated well, provided they have the space for a longer treatment to enter a therapeutic relationship (with counter-transference traps) to can deal with clients with a shaken confidence in their fellow man and one not afraid to quickly and if one does good overview over the course of treatment. We present a model that gives direction to the treatment of complex trauma. We assume the three-phase model (Herman, 1992) with stabilization, processing and integration and supplement this with handles for practical use. The model we use to systematically change the options to determine in complex trauma problems. We will phase out any one or more techniques and demonstrate how this straight EMDR is used in the treatment of complex trauma problems j.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Many of us have been asked to provide some EMDR to a colleague’s client. How do we decide whether to accept such a referral, define our role, and conceptualize the work? This workshop presents a model of brief adjunctive EMDR consultation, a focused application of standard EMDR therapy, provided by the EMDR consultant to clients in collaboration with their referring therapist. The workshop offers guidelines for identifying appropriate referrals and for maintaining a collaborative stance with referring therapists. Ethical issues and potential pitfalls will be discussed. Small group activities and handouts will help participants to implement the model.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Non-EMDR-trained clinicians sometimes ask if “a little EMDR” might help their clients. This workshop presents a specific model of Brief Adjunctive EMDR that can accelerate progress in traditional therapy, help the client and the primary therapist to clarify stuck points, and enrich ongoing work. Screening criteria are offered and potential pitfalls are outlined, along with ways to prevent or resolve these problems. An active collaborative relationship with the referring therapist is essential in this model; ways to develop collaboration are discussed. Participants will receive sample forms to educate prospective clients, inform referring therapists, guide case conceptualization, and measure treatment outcomes.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Non-EMDR trained clinicians sometimes ask if "a little EMDR" might help some of their clients. When painful feelings about a single incident continue to intrude or interfere with otherwise productive psychotherapy, a short trial of EMDR may indeed resolve the impasse. By narrowly targeting specific traumatic memories or intrusive material, adjunctive EMDR can accelerate progress in traditional therapy, help the client and the primary therapist to clarify stuck points, and enrich the ongoing work. This workshop will describe a model of brief adjunctive EMDR consultation, a focused application of standard EMDR therapy, provided by the EMDR consultant to clients in collaboration with their referring therapist. In this model, adjunctive EMDR does not replace or intempt ongoing therapy. It is complementary to the primary therapy relationship. The workshop will include guidelines for identifying appropriate referrals and for maintaining a collaborative stance with referring therapists. Ethical issues will be addressed, and potential pitfalls will be discussed. The presenter will describe a pilot study of this model, including qualitative and quantitative measures of outcome.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
This workshop covers the screening, diagnosis, treatment and pitfalls encountered in using EMDR in Dissociative Disorders. The unexpected finding of dissociative disorders among trauma victims using EMDR requires therapists to be able to recogme and screen for dissociative conditions. Under special circumstances, these patients may have negative reactions which the EMDR therapist should be prepared to manage. Treatment requires a strong alliance, an awareness of dissociation and the management of patients' abreactions. Treatment guidelines have been established for using EMDR which can guide therapists as our expmence with dissociative disorders evolves. A careful informed consent should be obtained and an assessment of the patient's inner resources made so that ffagile patients with histories of chronic trauma are not inadvertently injured. Further, EMDR is not designed as a tool for "memory work" but for the reduction of distress for events or experiences already known. Lectures, discussions, handouts and video tape demonstrations show the application of EMDR in a variety of conditions. The results of a pilot study using EMDR in 15 patients with 33 target symptoms will be presented. In this limited sample, between 50% and 60% of patients achieved significant reduction of their distress levels on selected targets. A variety of responses occurred including fusions, generalization effects, and establishmg inner dialogue. In addition, a variety of problems arose resulting in treatment failures or cessation of EMDR. These include such reactions as flooding, escalation of anger, paranoia and resistance to the treatment. The implications of these findings suggest that cautious patient selection and use of EMDR has a potential use and that as research in this population continues, strategies for overcoming problem areas can be developed.

Abstract:
From my clinical work over the past 4 years a case series of 15 women patients, all detained in a secure hospital for periods of up to 30 years discharged after EMDR therapy. Some cases discussed in depth, others factor analysed as case series. Drug modulation permitted intensive therapy. The factors of complex stress disorder are beeing discussed and its simlarity to borderline personality disorder. The effects of long term instititutionalisation after detention in security. The responsible clinician as ‘‘goaler and therapist’’ as well as therapeutic pitfalls are being explored. The psychopathology of the flashback is contrasted with the psychpathology of the alter (dissociative identity). Prognostic factors and outcomes are being presented. The implications for personality disorder as a diagnosis contrasted with complex PTSD will be evaluated.

EMDR & the treatment of adult survivors of childhood abuse and neglect: EMDR aanpassingen voor disregulatie bij Complexe PTSS [EMDR adaptations dysregulation in complex PTSD]. Keynote presented at the 4th EMDR Association Netherlands Conference, Nijmegen, The Netherlands.

Language: Dutch

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Wanneer clienten met vroege, chronische traumatisering door middel van EMDR behandeld worden, moet de therapeut vaak als een soort ‘psychobiologische regelaar’ functioneren, om ervan verzekerd te zijn dat cliënten binnen hun Window of Tolerance blijven. De EMDR therapeut dient daarvoor actief te zijn in het bepalen van het optimale tempo van het verwerkingsproces gedurende de EMDR zitting. Dit is van belang om toegang te kunnen krijgen tot de eerder gedissocieerde kennis, gedragsmatige impulsen, gevoelens, en/of sensaties, en deze te kunnen blijven verdragen. De therapeut moet in staat zijn de signalen van disregulatie (bv hyper/hypo-arousal, bevriezen, dissociëren) te herkennen en door middel van specifieke interweaves erop in te kunnen spelen, om de cliënt in het proces te houden en te helpen met het verwerken van diverse aspecten met betrekking tot verantwoordelijkheid, veiligheid en keuze. Deze keynote zal een kader neerzetten voor het werken met complexe PTSS en disregulatie. Een aantal specifieke technieken, gericht op het omzeilen van therapeutische valkuilen bij deze chronisch getraumatiseerde cliënten, zullen kort worden besproken. Dit zal verduidelijkt worden door middel van opnames van EMDR sessies waarin er van moment tot moment de interacties tussen de therapeut en de cliënt geanalyseerd zullen worden. In de eendaagse workshop op de maandag na het congres zal veel uitvoeriger ingegaan worden op de ‘hoe, wat, wanneer en waarom vragen’ in de behandeling van Complexe PTSS.

When clients with early, chronic trauma treated by EMDR, the therapist often as a kind of 'psychobiological regulator "function, to satisfy itself that its customers remain within their Window of Tolerance. The EMDR therapist is therefore to be active in determining the optimal pace of the process during the EMDR session. This is important in order to be granted access to the previously dissociated knowledge, behavioral impulses, feelings, and/or sensations, and to continue to bear. The therapist should be able to dysregulation of signals (e.g. hyper / hypo-arousal, freezing, dissociate) to recognize specific interweaves through it in order to respond to the client in the process to keep and help in processing various aspects of responsibility, security and choice. This keynote will provide a framework drop for working with complex PTSD and dysregulation. Some specific techniques designed to circumvent these therapeutic pitfalls in chronically traumatized clients, will be briefly discussed. This will be clarified by means of recordings of sessions in which EMDR is from moment to moment interactions between therapist and client will be analyzed. The one-day workshop on the Monday after the congress will be much more detailed presentation on the 'how, what, when and why questions "in the treatment of Complex PTSD.

Language: Swedish

Format: Book

Abstract:
EMDR är en evidensbaserad metod för att behandla PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). Emellertid kan EMDR tillämpas på ett betydligt bredare sätt. Många av de besvär som människor bär på har inte orsakats av något livshotande trauma men kan förstås utifrån att plågsamma minnen inte kunnat bearbetas. Författarna använder en enkel, rättfram framställning med många kliniska exempel. Vanliga nybörjarfel och missuppfattningar illustreras, men boken lyfter också fram sådant som underlättar bearbetningen av plågsamma minnen. Terapeuter och klienter berättar om egna erfarenheter på ett instruktivt sätt. Läsaren får följa tillämpningen av EMDR-protokollet genom samtliga åtta faser – från den första anamnesdelen till den avslutande behandlings­utvärderingen, och får praktiska råd såsom ”Vad du än gör, gör inte så här!” Boken ersätter inte en grundkurs i EMDR eller Francine Shapiros ursprungliga bok, men är ett utmärkt komplement, en handbok med konkreta förslag, väsentlig vägledning, och strategier för att undvika vanliga fallgropar i EMDR- arbete med vuxna klienter.

EMDR is an evidence-based approach to treating PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). However, EMDR applicable to a much broader way. Many of the problems that people carry has not been caused by something life-threatening trauma but can be understood from the painful memories could not be processed. The authors use a simple, straightforward production with many clinical examples. Frequently nybörjarfel and misconceptions illustrated, but the book also highlights things that facilitate processing of painful memories. Therapists and clients talk about their experiences in an instructive way. The reader may follow the application of the EMDR protocol through all eight phases - the first history part of the final treatment evaluation, and get practical advice such as "Whatever you do, do not do this!" The book does not replace a basic course in EMDR or Francine Shapiro's original book, but is an excellent addition, a handbook of practical suggestions, guidance material, and strategies for avoiding common pitfalls in EMDR work with adult clients.

Abstract:
As EMDR's reputation for powerful and effective treatment grows, EMDR clinicians are increasingly being asked to provide services as consulting or adjunct therapists. These consultations can be intensely productive and stimulating if done properly; they can also be counterproductive if not. This workshop will provide the consulting therapist with specific techniques for ethical and effective treatment of the patient and guidelines for working with the primary therapist. It will include: 1) setting realistic goals with both the patient and the primary therapist; 2) exploring the eight phases of EMDR treatment from a consulting perspective; 3) understanding the ethical issues concerned with this type of treatment; 4) dealing with treatment implications such as splitting and transference; 5) how to avoid common pitfalls such as judging the primary clinician's performance; and 6) the satisfaction of developing an ongolng productive, collegial relationships. The workshop will provide a step-by-step framework for consultation work, clear case examples and didactic information woven into a lively interactive format.

Abstract:
This article is an excerpt from the book Integrating EMDR Into Your Practice (Royle & Kerr, 2010), which is a hands-on guide to facilitate the successful integration of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) training into therapists' practice while recognizing that trainees come from a range of theoretical backgrounds. This excerpt focuses on identifying the appropriate target memory and its related negative cognition (NC) in preparation for desensitization. Clients and therapists need to understand the rationale for selecting a particular target utilizing prioritization and clustering techniques. The importance of the belief system is discussed and methods of identifying the initial targets are offered, including the floatback technique. Many practitioners experience difficulty in getting the right NC, and methods for drawing this out are illustrated. Final preparations prior to desensitization are considered as well as the importance of addressing client anxieties and expectations. Throughout the excerpt, case vignettes are used to outline cautions and common pitfalls encountered by the novice EMDR therapist.

Language: French

Format: Conference

Abstract: Il est fréquent que des clients avec lesquels nous utilisons l’EMDR présentent des symptômes de dissociation au cours de la séance, particulièrement si les émotions deviennent très intenses ou si le souvenir du trauma est réactivé de façon très aigue. Parmi les stratégies que l’on peut utiliser à ce moment pour aider le client à rester dans l’expérience, l’écran s’avère un outil clinique extrêmement efficace. Le but de cet atelier est d’amener le clinicien à découvrir et expérimenter l’utilisation de l’écran dans le traitement en EMDR. Ainsi, lors de l’application du protocole en 8 étapes, si des symptômes dissociatifs apparaissent, l’écran permet une stabilisation et favorise la poursuite du traitement adaptatif de l’information. Le déroulement de cet atelier de 3 heures comporte un grand volet pratique pour permettre l’expérimentation et les échanges chez les participants. Ce qui favorise l’intégration des connaissances actuelles en EMDR ainsi que l’expérience clinique à partir d’un cas précis. L’apprentissage de cet outil donne accès aux ressources du client.
Objectifs d’apprentissage: 1. Approfondir les connaissances pour mieux cibler l’intervention en EMDR (facteurs facilitants et écueils rencontrés) 2. Reconnaître les manifestations des symptômes dissociatifs en cours de traitement EMDR 3. Faire l’apprentissage de l’écran comme outil clinique dans le traitement adaptatif de l’information 4. Privilégier l’accès du client à ses ressources 5. Favoriser le mouvement et la stabilisation de la personne par l’utilisation de cet outil dans le cadre des 8 étapes pour poursuivre le traitement EMDR.

It is common for clients with whom we use EMDR with symptoms of dissociation during the session, especially if emotions become intense or if the memory of the trauma was reactivated very acute. Among the strategies that can be used at this time to help the client to remain in the experiment, the screen is an extremely effective clinical tool. The purpose of this workshop is to bring the clinician to explore and experiment with using the screen in the EMDR treatment. Thus, when applying the protocol in 8 steps, if dissociative symptoms appear, the screen allows a stabilization and promotes the pursuit of adaptive processing of information. The course of this 3 hour workshop includes a large practical component to allow experimentation and exchanges among participants. Which promotes the integration of existing knowledge in EMDR and clinical experience from a case. Learning this tool provides access to client resources.
Learning Objectives: 1. Deepen the knowledge to better target intervention in EMDR (facilitating factors and pitfalls) 2. Recognize the manifestations of dissociative symptoms during treatment EMDR 3. Make learning the screen as a clinical tool in the adaptive processing of information 4. Preferred customer access to its resources 5. Encourage movement and stabilization of the person through the use of this tool as part of the 8 steps to continue the EMDR treatment.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
EMDR is an effective and principled intervention to help people with the impact of trauma. It also offers powerful resource development approaches. These are useful as preparation work in processing trauma, but also valuable interventions in themselves. This can be very helpful when circumstances preclude doing trauma work, or when only brief interventions are possible. Positive installations and resource development are also apt for use with children and young people, addressing real world functioning in what is often an enjoyable and rewarding way. Many resource development approaches are well known, and have been used in both standard and novel ways by practitioners. Others have been developed by individual practitioners, and also their clients. Often, therefore, there are good methods that could be more widely known. This workshop presents an account of both standard and non-standard resource development techniques, with an opportunity for participants to present their own good practice and share knowledge. There will also be a discussion of resource development within the EMDR protocol, as part of a principled model for this kind of work., but with a practical view as to how resource development can make trauma processing both easier and more effective. This paper gives an overview of using RID with children. We will look at a whole range of RID’s- common ones and some non-standard, innovative ones. With the participants we will look at purposes, pitfalls, the extent to which any can be safely ‘given away’, and any experiences of using these in groups. To our knowledge, the field has not been drawn together in this way, and we hope through a mixture of presentation and discussion to begin to share our experiences, and develop peoples’ confidence in extending their repertoire.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
In this workshop the focus will be on the EMDR treatment of problems concerning aggression and revenge as a result of damaging experiences in the past. First of all, the pitfalls in the therapeutic relation, which could obstruct the trauma oriented treatment of aggression and revenge will be dealt with. An important question is when to choose for cognitive behavioral therapy techniques such as Anger Replacement Treatment and when EMDR treatment can be expected to be more effective, in treating aggression and revenge. A model introduced by Ogden will be presented to clarify this. It is essential that the aggressive client will be taught first how to be able to diminish the sometimes dangerous arousal, using the so-­‐called safe place. Only then we can get started with processing the traumatic experiences and/or revenge fantasies. Video recordings will illustrate all this. After explaining the origin of revenge fantasies and revengefulness, extensive video footage will show how this can be treated effectively by means of an adjusted EMDR protocol. A plea will be made for paying more attention to and also treating the externalizing side (anger and revenge) of PTSD and in the case of treating aggression, to concentrate more on revenge and its traumatic origin.

En este taller nos centramos en los problemas referentes al tratamiento EMDR en la agresión y la venganza como resultado de experiencias dañinas en el pasado. En primer lugar, las dificultades en la relación terapéutica pueden obstruir el tratamiento orientado al trauma de la agresión y la venganza, y habrá que lidiar con ello. Una cuestión importante es la elección de las técnicas cognitivo conductuales como el tratamiento de remplazo de la ira, y donde el tratamiento EMDR espera ser más efectivo en el tratamiento de la agresión y la venganza. Un modelo introductorio de Ogden será presentado para aclarar esto. Es esencial que en el cliente agresivo se enseñe primero como ser capaz de bloquear la respuesta peligrosa, usando el también llamado lugar seguro. Solo entonces puede empezarse con el procesamiento de experiencias traumáticas o fantasías de venganza. Todo esto será mostrado mediante videos grabados. Después de explicar el origen de las fantasías de venganza y la venganza propiamente dicha, una filmación de video extensivo mostrará como esto puede ser tratado de manera efectiva, lo que supone un ajuste en el protocolo estándar del EMDR Se rogará una mayor atención para tratar el lado externalizador (ira y venganza) del síndrome de estrés post-­‐traumático y en el caso de tratam

Language: English

Format: Journal

Abstract:
Five examples of nontraditional psychosocial treatments used for children/adolescents are reviewed: eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, electroencephalographic (EEG) biofeedback, deep pressure/touch therapies, stress-challenge treatments, and confrontational scare treatments. The generic recommendations from the September 1992 National Institutes of Health Conference on Unconventional Medical Treatments are summarized. Additional screening principles specific for psychosocial treatments are proposed and applied to the five treatments. The screens do not validate treatment efficacy or evaluate the quality of any previous research, but only facilitate decisions as to whether treatments deserve controlled investigation. Scientific evaluation of the nontraditional treatments reviewed could in general benefit from blinds (at least for assessment); control conditions matched for intensity, frequency, and duration (double blind where feasible); dose-response studies; testing of generalization and endurance supplements or boosters for quick, cheap treatments with time- or domain-limited effects; and comparing cost-effectiveness with established treatments. Two unscientific pitfalls must be avoided: embracing new treatments uncritically and rejecting them without fair examination. These pitfalls must be skirted without dissipating scarce research resources. [Author Abstract]

Abstract:
Working within a child and adolescent mental health service, a large proportion of the work is with adolescents, many of whom come to us as a result of self-harming behaviours. Often it later emerges that there is a history of trauma or abuse. Engaging with such young people can often be a challenge, often requiring sensitivity and creativity. After 15 years of experience working with this group I still enjoy the challenge presented. Using case material, I will explore some of the key issues I have encountered, along with some of the pitfalls and successes experienced. I often use EMDR with a client-centered model, at times incorporating Play Therapy and art. I am at times surprised by young people's own inventiveness in using EMDR.

Through lecture, case example, and interactive participation, participants will be able to describe the difference between "State" and "Trait" change. Participants will be able to discuss how to develop "Target Specific" Resources. And by the conclusion of the workshop, participants will be able to demonstrate a number of traditional cognitive interweave methods using Resource as a means of helping facilitate "State" change during EMDR reprocessing.

26. Yoeli, F. R., & Prattos, T. (2007, June). When all you have is 90 minutes: A systemic approach to EMDR case conceptualization in times of stress following crisis. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Paris, France.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
When all you have is 90 minutes with the hysterical and/or traumatized client in times of crisis, efficient planning and conceptualization of EMDR casework is essential.
Using EMD(R) as a means of reducing immediate exacerbated stress is effectively enhanced with a genogram format that is brief, and specifically focuses on learned generational reactions to trauma. By tapping into the trans-generational information the processing in crises is facilitated and enhanced.
This suggested case conceptualization and genogram format quickly highlights inherited strengths and resources which is the client’s historical legacy. The client gains perspective recognizes that survival and overcoming the crisis is possible and acquires insight into valuable resources.
Following a crisis, when EMDR therapist and client first meet, the 1st stage is the retelling of the event.
After the story has been told, the EMDR therapist begins to gather historical family information. This has the effect of moving the client one tiny step away from crisis and calming the individual sufficiently for the therapist to begin to assess resources, and potential resources within the family system,
Additionally, the EMDR therapist finds resources for more meaningful and relevant cognitive interweaves while at the same item protecting himself from vicarious traumatization, compassion fatigue, and burn out. The suggested case conceptualization and multi-generational genogram use, uncovers inherited small t and large T trauma material and anxieties as well as leaned dysfunctional behavior patterns which are compounded over time, and which become a source of exacerbated present crisis reactions.
Once identified and recognized this accesses information enables a deeper and faster healing experience for the client.
The therapist recognizes potential pitfalls which may appear during the desensitization of the current crisis and is better prepared to formulate efficient cognitive interweaves as needs, for the current crisis resolution, without going in the reprocessing of the old trauma. This process fine tunes and fine lines the standard protocol for the EMDR session used in crisis interventions.
This format is adaptable and equally useful in standard consulting room sessions with clients for more effective case conceptualization for EMDR sessions. This multigenerational systemic approach enhances attunement, therapeutic clarity and the well being of the individual. It produces insight, recognizes resources and inner strengths and learned behavior patterns quickly
Case examples and a practicum will teach and enable participants to learn and assess for themselves how this multi-generational genogram approach unveils historical characteristics and learned behavior patterns. This systemic approach leads to enhance EMDR case conceptualization, enabling better formulation and accuracy of EMDR protocol components such as the NC and PC to attain more effective processing.

Language: Dutch

Format: Conference

Abstract:
‘Conceptualiseren en ‘scherpstellen’ zijn twee belangrijke aspecten van een EMDR-behandeling. Het doel van deze onderdelen is om vanuit klachten en problemen die een patiënt presenteert targetherinneringen te identificeren en vervolgens voldoende lading te creëren om desensitisatie mogelijk te maken. Veel therapeuten vinden dit niet altijd gemakkelijk. In deze workshop wordt geleerd om zowel eenvoudige als efficiënte wegen te leren bewandelen om (1) een casus te conceptualiseren voor behandeling met EMDR, (2) essentiële, zogenaamde ‘touchstone’, targets te identificeren, en (3) de juiste NCs en PCs te selecteren. Aan de hand van oefeningen en diverse videofragmenten van stroef verlopende EMDR behandelingen wordt gedemonstreerd waar mogelijke valkuilen liggen. Daarnaast wordt uitgelegd hoe in moeilijke situaties, waarin het standaard protocol niet voorziet, kan worden gehandeld en hoe deze moeilijkheden op creatieve wijze kunnen worden opgelost. Deze interactieve workshop is vooral bedoeld voor therapeuten die nog geen vervolgopleiding hebben gedaan en die hun vaardigheden op EMDR gebied willen vergroten.

'Conceptualise and' focus' are two important aspects of EMDR treatment. The objective of this component is to identify complaints and problems from a patient and then target memories enough charge to create desensitization possible. Many therapists are not always easy. This workshop is taught to both simple and efficient ways to learn to walk to (1) a case to conceptualize treatment with EMDR, (2) key, so-called "touch stone", target identification, and (3) the proper NCS and PCs to select. Using various exercises and video clips of sluggish EMDR treatment is demonstrated where potential pitfalls lie. In addition, how to in difficult situations where the standard protocol is not provided, can be traded and how these problems can be solved creatively. This interactive workshop is intended primarily for therapists who have not yet done so and continuing their fields to increase skills in EMDR.

28. Veerbeek, H. (2012, March). Wraakfantasie en wraakdrang: de externaliserende kant van PTSS [Revenge and vengeance urge Fantasy: Externalizing side of PTSD]. Presentatie op de 6e congres van de Vereniging EMDR Nederland, Arnhem, Nederland.

Language: Dutch

Format: Conference

Abstract:
In deze workshop richt de aandacht zich op de EMDR-behandeling van agressie- en wraakproblemen als gevolg van beschadigende ervaringen in het verleden. Allereerst wordt stilgestaan bij valkuilen in de therapeutische relatie die het vanuit trauma-perspectief behandelen van agressie en wraak in de weg kunnen staan. Een belangrijke vraag is wanneer cognitief gedragtherapeutische technieken geïndiceerd zijn en wanneer verwacht kan worden dat EMDR juist effectiever zal kunnen zijn bij de behandeling van de agressie en wraak. Daartoe wordt een model van Ogden gepresenteerd. Voordat begonnen wordt met verwerking van traumamateriaal en/of wraakfantasieën, is essentieel dat aan de agressieve cliënt geleerd wordt hoe middels de veilige plek de soms gevaarljike arousel omlaag gebracht kan worden. Dit wordt met videomateriaal geïllustreerd. Na uitleg over het ontstaan van wraakfantasieen en wraakdrang wordt met gebruikmaking van uitgebreid videomateriaal gedemonstreerd hoe middels een aangepast EMDR-protocol wraakfantasieën en wraakdrang goed behandeld kunnen worden. Een pleidooi wordt gehouden om bij de behandeling van PTSS meer aandacht te hebben voor de externaliserende kant (woede en wraak) en deze ook te behandelen, zoals hier wordt voorgesteld. Daarnaast is het pleidooi om bij de behandeling van agressie en wraak meer aandacht te hebben voor de traumatische oorsprong hiervan.

In this workshop the focus is on the EMDR treatment of aggression and revenge problems resulting from damaging experiences in the past. First, examines pitfalls in the therapeutic relationship from the trauma perspective in treating aggression and revenge can hinder. An important question is when cognitive behavioral therapy techniques are indicated and when it is expected that EMDR will be very effective in the treatment of aggression and revenge. To this end, a model of Ogden presented. Before commencing treatment of trauma material and / or revenge fantasies is essential that the client is taught how aggressive the safe place through the sometimes gevaarljike arousel can be lowered. This is illustrated with video material. After explanation of the origin of wraakfantasieen and revenge urge is using extensive video demonstrates how using a modified EMDR protocol fantasies of revenge and vengeance urge successfully treated. A plea is held to the treatment of PTSD more attentive to the side externalizing (anger and revenge), and also to treat, as proposed here. In addition, the plea for the treatment of aggression and revenge more attention to the traumatic origin of this.
