Abstract:
Many presentations often show only video snippets of wildly successful EMDR processing. This presentation will be different. The first half will show an entire EMDR session working with small “t” traumas so that participants can see all of the little nuts and bolts that go into making a session successful (or not). The second half of the presentation will enable participants to discuss the session and the many things Zangwill could have done differently to make the processing more effective. Participants will also be encouraged to engage in case consultation on a variety of issues.

Abstract:
The functions of EMDRIA Approved Consultants include the provision of consultation and supervision. While consultation is not the same as supervision, there is some overlap and legal implications, with the ultimate goal being to ensure competent treatment of clients. This workshop will address methods to examine and assess the applicants’ developmental abilities regarding quality consultation, case conceptualization skills, as well as knowledge and ability to implement the EMDR treatment model. This workshop also seeks to build upon the skills that current consultants already possess, refining and upgrading their competencies in effectively assessing applicants in the above areas.

Abstract:
Over the past 2-3 years, clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and acute stress disorder (ASD) have been developed in the USA and UK. There remained a need, however, for the development of Australian CPGs for the treatment of ASD and PTSD tailored to the national health-care context. Therefore, the Australian Centre for Posttraumatic Mental Health in collaboration with national trauma experts, has recently developed Australian CPGs for adults with ASD and PTSD, which have been endorsed by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). In consultation with a multidisciplinary reference panel (MDP), research questions were determined and a systematic review of the evidence was then conducted to answer these questions (consistent with NHMRC procedures). On the basis of the evidence reviewed and in consultation with the MDP, a series of practice recommendations were developed. The practice recommendations that have been developed address a broad range of clinical questions. Key recommendations indicate the use of trauma-focused psychological therapy (cognitive behavioural therapy or eye movement desensitization and reprocessing in addition to in vivo exposure) as the most effective treatment for ASD and PTSD. Where medication is required for the treatment of PTSD in adults, selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor antidepressants should be the first choice. Medication should not be used in preference to trauma-focused psychological therapy. In the immediate aftermath of trauma, practitioners should adopt a position of watchful waiting and provide psychological first aid. Structured interventions such as psychological debriefing, with a focus on recounting the traumatic event and ventilation of feelings, should not be offered on a routine basis. [InformaWorld]

Abstract:
Question: How can I provide brief adjunctive EMDR as a
consultation service to other therapists’ clients?
ANSWER FROM SUZANNE S. BORSTEIN:
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing
(EMDR) has been demonstrated to be an effective treatment
for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and its
application to other psychological problems has been
documented as well (Maxfi eld, 2007). As the effectiveness
of EMDR is increasingly documented not only in
the professional literature but also in the popular press,
therapists and clients alike have become curious about
whether EMDR might be helpful in their work. [Excerpt]

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 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: Journal
Abstract:
Case consultation is a new regular feature in the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research in which a
therapist requests assistance regarding a challenging case and responses are written by three experts. In
this article, Amy Robbins, a certified eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapist
from Atlanta, Georgia, briefly describes a challenging case in which a pregnant woman seeks treatment
for trauma suffered in a tornado. The clinician asks if it is advisable to provide EMDR treatment and what
concerns she should be aware of. The first expert, Carol Forgash, provides some general information about
pregnancy and psychotherapy and outlines considerations, concerns, and contraindications for proceeding
with EMDR. She recommends that if treatment is chosen, the therapist proceed with a recent trauma
protocol to specifically target the traumatic memories of the recent tornado. The second expert, Andrew
Leeds, comments on the absence of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or other scientific reports exploring
the safety of EMDR treatment of pregnant women. He states that pregnant women with symptoms of
posttraumatic stress should understand that there is a high probability that EMDR will improve maternal
quality of life and that the risks of adverse effects on stability of pregnancy are probably low, but that
these remain unknown. The third expert, Claire Stramrood, explains that the few case studies that evaluated
EMDR during pregnancy have found positive effects but pertained to women with posttraumatic
stress disorder (PTSD) following childbirth. She asserts that once obstetricians have been consulted,
women have been informed about possible risks and benefits, and, given their informed consent, they
should be able to choose to commence EMDR therapy during pregnancy.

Abstract:
Case Consultation is a new regular feature in the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research. In this article,
an eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) clinician briefly describes a challenging case
in which a man, “George,” was referred for EMDR for treatment of a depression that began more than
2 years previously. After all his reported traumatic memories were completely processed with EMDR,
George remains severely depressed and the therapist asks how to proceed effectively with treatment.
Responses are written by three experts. The first expert, Robin Shapiro, describes a comprehensive list
of possible etiologies, including attachment, early trauma, genetic, and other biological causes and their
appropriate EMDR, ego state, or medical treatments. The second expert, Arne Hofmann, reviews the
treatment that was provided and makes suggestions for alternate treatment targets, suggesting that the
therapist could address the client’s belief that “nothing will change” and try the EMDR inverted protocol.
The third expert, Earl Grey, recommends that the clinician focus on addressing small “t” traumas, even if
the client indicates that he or she has little to no disturbance and explains how to develop and implement
a “restorative life span target sequence.”

Abstract:
Paciente que consulta a los 36 años de edad. Al momento de la consulta estaba realizando tratamientos psiquiátrico y psicológico sin resultados desde el año 1995, con un diagnóstico de Ataque de Pánico.
El comienzo del problema es después de la guerra de las Malvinas. Es en el año 1985 cuando él decide consultar por primera vez porque no se sentía bien, se encontraba muy nervioso e irritable. El médico clínico, después de varios exámenes de rutina le manifiesta que se encuentra bien, aunque le prescribe un ansiolítico, psicofármaco que tomo por 11 años, hasta el año 1996. En ese año es derivado a un psiquiatra y a un psicólogo por sus reiteradas visitas a la guardia.

Language: English
Format: Dissertation/Thesis
Abstract:
This study investigated factors contributing to clinician attrition from eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy. The primary areas under investigation were factors contributing to attrition and retention, as well as the quest to obtain information pertaining to training experiences. A sample of 239 clinicians was purposefully obtained. Several patterns emerged within the data, highlighting the issues of attrition: Loyalty to other treatment modalities and discomfort with using EMDR, either through lack of confidence, inadequate training, or discomfort with client distress, were both correlated with clinician attrition. Treatment efficacy and ongoing consultation were remarkable for retention. Practice setting surfaced as statistically significant, and operating in private practice was positively correlated with greater participation in EMDR support activities. Additionally, the adequacy of the training format was presented, as well as how prepared the participants felt after completion of EMDR training. A number of findings were consistent with earlier studies and the converging results of loyalty to previous modalities and discomfort using EMDR gave rise to recommendations for future training and support of newly trained clinicians. The limitations of the current study were presented, in addition to directions for future research.

Dit onderzoek was voor ons zowel een eerste kennismaking met Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) als een eerste kennismaking met het klinische werkveld. Naast het leerzame traject van het onderzoek zelf, waren deze aspecten een speciale aanvulling op onze scriptie. Wij hebben dan ook met veel enthousiasme aan deze scriptie gewerkt en ons op verschillende gebieden breder ontwikkeld. Wij zijn voornamelijk blij dat wij „op de valreep van onze studie‟ nog kennis hebben mogen maken met de behandelmethode EMDR. Het is een behandelmethode die wij in onze verdere loopbaan binnen de psychologie zeker mee zullen nemen. Onze dank gaat uit naar de therapeuten en cliënten die mee wilden werken aan dit onderzoek. Zonder deze medewerking was dit onderzoek immers niet tot stand gekomen! Daarnaast willen wij graag onze begeleidster mw. dr. H.K.

Besides the educational process of research itself, these issues were a special addition to our thesis. We also have enthusiastically worked on this paper and our wider development in various fields. We are especially pleased that we are "at the very end of our study" may even be familiar with the EMDR treatment method. It is a treatment that in our careers in psychology will certainly take it. Our thanks go to the therapists and clients who wanted participate in this study. Without this cooperation, this research was not realized! In addition, we want our companion mw. Dr. H.K. Hornsveld thanks for transferring her enthusiasm for EMDR and all her observations and comments on our research. Partly thanks to her that this study is well rounded and our enthusiasm grew.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
In 1999, EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP) began its work in Asia in Bangladesh. Since then HAP teams have
trained clinicians in India, Indonesia, China, Thailand, Sri Lanka. This presentation will summarize what has been learned
from ten years of experience in Asia. The EMDR HAP training in Sri Lanka following the 2004 tsunami will be presented in
detail. Issues addressed will include needs assessment, organization, collaboration among organizations, ethics, cultural
competence ,and program evaluation. Videotapes will show training and sessions of trainees with tsunami survivors. The
presentation will show how to train participants to think, write, and speak about EMDR as well as how to competently and
ethically utilize EMDR with clients.
An EMDR training program was conducted as a joint project of three organizations: EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs
(HAP), International Relief Teams (IRT), and the Sri Lankan National Counselors Association (SRILNAC). Between March and
December 2005, 30 Sri Lankan counselors were trained in EMDR. These counselors demonstrated competence in EMDR on
several measures, treated more than 1,000 children and more than 350 adult tsunami victims with EMDR in 2005, provided
narrative reports and outcome measures for most of their clients, and formed the Sri Lanka EMDR Association (SEA). The
crucial steps in establishing and implementing this training program are explained, with a summary of the subjective
impressions and learning experiences most valued by the training team, including an excerpt from a trainer’s journal. This
information may be useful to future cross-cultural humanitarian efforts following large-scale disasters.
This article summarizes the crucial steps in establishing and carrying out this training program as well. Previous HAP programs
in Bangladesh and Turkey (Konuk et al., 2006) had led to the development of a model of therapist training and service delivery
following large-scale natural disasters. Great need for mental health treatment in developing countries following a disaster
and the even greater challenge of delivering effective, culturally competent mental health treatment in these situations.
Silove and Bryant (2006) praised the rapid needs assessment after the tsunami as an important advancement in psychiatric
epidemiology that demonstrated the value of such assessment in guiding mental health interventions after disasters.They
pointed out that the controversy over whether to offer psychological treatment after disasters confuses funding agencies
and those planning mental health programs after disasters. Their concerns were echoed in Raphael and Stevens’s (2006)
delineation of the emerging consensus about good mental health practice after disasters in an article that was not a part of
the Bangkok symposium. IRT directors, EMDR-HAP staff, and SRILNAC leaders discussed crucial political, ethical, economic,
and logistical decisions in conference calls and e-mails. They outlined a program that would be responsive to the culture and
needs of Sri Lanka, would provide world-class EMDR training and consultation, and would follow International Society for
Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS) guidelines for mental health programs in post disaster situations (Weine et al., 2002). Following
the funding mandate of IRT, the HAP team took responsibility for ensuring that services would in fact be delivered to tsunami
survivors and that those services would be clinically effective. Therefore, requirements for continuing participation were quite
specific, and trainees were more thoroughly evaluated than in previous HAP projects. These 30 counselors treated more than
1,350 tsunami survivors with EMDR between March and December 2005 and submitted outcome reports on these sessions
that show marked improvement in PTSD symptoms. We know from e-mail contact that a number of participants continue
to use EMDR effectively. As mentioned Important elements of the HAP training program in Sri Lanka included (a) adequate
funding, (b) selection of trainees, (c) negotiation of objectives among HAP,IRT, and SRILNAC, (d) the pre-EMDR training in
traumatology, (e) the consultation between trainings,(f ) the requirements for ongoing participation in the training, (g) a
variety of measures of competence in EMDR, (h) the continuing, ongoing consultation with trainees, and (i) dedication. A
project like this is expensive. IRT received.

Abstract:
The functions of EMDRIA Approved Consultants
include the provision of consultation and
supervision. However, consultation is not the same
as supervision. One of the areas of consultation is to provide guidance and training to applicants for EMDRIA Certification. There is support in the
literature that EMDR works best in a therapeutic
relationship, when fidelity to the method is
maintained. This workshop will address ways to
examine and assess the expectations of the
consultants-in-training, such as skills with case
conceptualization, knowledge and ability to implement the EMDR treatment method, and
ablllty to assert that knowledge with confidence.
This workshop hopes to build upon the skills that
consultants already possess, refining and upgrading their competencies. It is hoped that it will assist EMDRIA-Certification Applicants and Consultants-in-Training in determining their needs for consultaton.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
The prison system serves, among many others, one important goal: to separate those members
of society, who are dangerous to others, from the more peaceful and law-abiding majority. As
a consequence one could assume that the inmates of a prison from a, subgroup of human
beings, distinct by their aggressive potential. Though this is not true for all of the prisoners, it may be true for many of them. It is a well known fact, at least in Germany, that procedures
for controlling the safety in a prison, can't eliminate criminal behaviour or dealing with drugs
in a prison. One could assume, that even if an adequate standard of safety is upheld, a prison
would be a dangerous place to work in and that prison staff would be at a considerable risk of
being traumatised at work. In the prison system in Lower Saxony, Germany, between 5 and
10 recently traumatised staff are invited to participate in a group consultation each year. The
number of unrecorded cases is certainly much higher. In contrast there is not much literature about traumatisation of prison staff. On the other hand
prison staff are regarded as a population often reluctant to engage in psychotherapy and
leaving psychotherapy prematurely, without a significant treatment effect.
On 13th of August 1999 a prisoner attacked prison staff at Uelzen prison in Lower Saxony,
Germany. The perpetrator killed two members of staff, wounded two others severely and
committed suicide immediately afterwards. More members of staff suffered from the
psychological effects of the violence. The Critical Incident Team within the Ministry of
Justice provided intensive care and counselling. 15 members of staff were identified as a
high risk group to develop PTSD. 10 members of staff began psychotherapy. 7 qualified for
a diagnosis of PTSD, 3 for related diagnoses, according to ICD-10 criteria None of them left
therapy prematurely. One member of staff suffered from the effects of a civil war situation
experienced 15 years before, with a late onset PTSD triggered by vicarious traumatisation.
Only one remains out of work, but does not qualify for a diagnosis of PTSD at present. Three
are still in therapy. 7 patents ended therapy with a complete recovery. EMDR was applied to
great extent in 9 of the 10 cases. EMDR was tolerated well and proved to be fast and
efficient. Treatment effects seem to last over time. Setting the focus on the trauma and using
EMDR as a specific psychotherapeutic method seems to provide an accepted strategy with
significant gains for this population.

Abstract:
This paper tries to highlight the milestones of some of the Asian EMDR Associations and the evolution of EMDR Asia and the practices and challenges faced. Some of the issues are related to the parity of trainees’ qualifications with those from USA, Europe and within Asia. Similarly it impacts upon the training standards. Attention is also drawn to the cultural, language and economical diversity. The task ahead is to reinforce the uniformity of EMDR practice by developing accreditation procedures, standardization, training standards, contents and duration, selection criteria and requirements for the trainees and trainers, certification process, curriculum, linkages with associations, methods of supervision and consultation. UN agencies have a huge presence in Asia for developmental and relief work. UN agencies engaged in a wide range of the health spectrum could make a huge difference if they promoted the efficacy of EMDR for effective management of psychological health. This would include the use of EMDR not only for manmade and natural disasters, but also for other chronic and life threatening illnesses e.g. HIV, cancer and other psycho-social issues related to mental health.

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.

The junior high school girl in this case witnessed her mother's suicide at the age of four. She
has been acting violently since she entered elementary school. One yearbefore the author met
her, a consultation office for children intervened due to physical abuse by her father. Flashbacks
and dissociation caused wrist cutting and panic. After a few EMDR sessions, wrist cutting, panic
and PTSD symptoms disappeared. As she gained affect regulation skills, she gradually improved
her interpersonal relationship and began to trust others. The consultation aclivities by a school
counselor, namely the offering of psycho-educational information to the school, supporting teachers
and improving teacher's psychological understandings about her, was also important in addition to
individual treatment. The author discussed about the treatment of school children survivors who
rarely visit mental or medical institutions.

Language: English

Abstract:
EMDR is an innovative and rapidly expanding new, treatment technique. Therapists are provided with two weekends of intensive
training and encouraged to obtain supervision and be active in peer consultation groups and networks, and work to refine their skills.
It is uncertain what percentage follow through in this regard.
Estimates of the numbers of people who are victims of sexual trauma in our society are staggering (one in 3 girls, one in seven boys).
Research finds that approximately half the people who present for psychotherapy have some sexual trauma in their history. EMDR
has been hailed as an important new technique in facilitating the treatment of those who have been sexually traumatized. With
correct usage, EMDR can greatly facilitate the treatment. At the same time, sexual trauma is a complex and volatile issue and
awkward, poorly timed, or overly simplistic usage of EMDR could potentially lead to adverse consequences for the patient and
treatment. As with any therapeutic technique or paradigm it can only be as helpful as that of the overall treatment. In addition the
mere usage of EMDR will have an impact on the therapy, as well as the therapeutic container, and therapists need to be cognizant of
what that impact will be as well as to be sure that they know how to incorporate the patient reactions into the treatment in a positive
way and not allow them to undermine, or otherwise detrimentally effect both patient and therapist primary therapy goals.
Particularly in these times of increased litigation, malpractice suits, and professional grievances against therapists those
professionals utilizing EMDR would be wise to be aware of the particular risks inherent in the patient population in which they
work, as well as the inherent vulnerability of utilizing a newly developed technique. In treating sexual trauma many experts agree
that the crucible of the therapeutic container- is whether the healing will occur if the therapist sucessfully deals with the
challenges the patient will offer lip. Again how those utilizing EMDR negotiates those challenges may be he difference between a
successful course of therapy and a disaster.
Finally, working with sexual trauma is an emotionally, intellectually, and sometimes physically demanding undertaking. Many
therapists do not fully realize or acknowledge the toll that this type of work exacts and may be blind to the countertransferentia1
responses which arise and how they are communicated to the patient.
In this workshop we will first reveal, some of the current thinking on the primary treatment issues (and obstacles) in therapy with
victims of sexual trauma. We will then examine how and when is the most propitious time to use EMDR with this population and
what reactions patients are likely to have to this type of intervention. Specific ways that EMDR and its implementation may activate
certain issues in sexual trauma victims be elucidated as well as strategies for addressing those issues. Finally participants will
engage in a series of experiential exercises designed to heighten their awareness of their own personal reactions and feelings (i.e.,
countertransference) to working with the intensity of sexual trauma. Once again these potential reactions will be linked to more or
less effective usage of EMDR.

Format: Newsletter
Abstract:
These suggested guidelines are offered in response to many questions raised by clinicians recently trained in EMDR about getting started with using EMDR in clinical practice. Because of the wide variation in clinical background, theoretical orientation, length of experience learning style, and clinical settings of those who attend EMDR training, these are general guidelines that will be more or less useful or different clinicians.
The original version of this article was published March, 1998.
This article addresses questions raised by clinicians in training or recently trained in EMDR regarding case finding and selection criteria for their initial applications of EMDR. Guidelines are offered for number of sessions of practice during training, for identifying and deferring more complex cases until more experience is gained, and for recognizing clients where reprocessing of disturbing memories should be postponed in favor of client stabilization. Three classes of clients and targets, with descriptive case examples, are proposed for initial application of EMDR during the training process. Clinicians are encouraged to thoroughly read Shapiro’s (2001) required text and other recently published books and journal articles and to actively participate in consultation with an EMDRIA Approved Consultant.

Bristol, UK: South and West Regional Health Authority [Southampton]: Wessex Institute for Health Research and Development.
Language: English
Format: Publication
Abstract:
Objective/Purpose: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a relatively new form of psychotherapy designed to alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, avoidance of trauma related thoughts and intrusive memories associated with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Under therapist instruction, the patient makes rhythmic eye movements while imagining the traumatic event, designed to facilitate cognitive reprocessing to alleviate stress. Methods: Electronic searching of Medline, PsyClit, Health Star, CCTR, The National Research Register and a range of other databases was conducted. Once trials had been identified, data were extracted and methodological quality assessed. Cost-utility was estimated indirectly through consultation with expert clinicians. Costs per Quality Adjusted Life Year (QALY) gained were also calculated. Results: 12 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were identified, comparing EMDR to alternative psychotherapy treatments; variants of EMDR; and to delayed treatment groups in various combinations. The trials are generally small, with partial blinding of outcome assessors, and in some cases with high attrition. Results suggest the EMDR may be effective at reducing symptoms up to 3 months after treatment in comparison to delayed treatment groups. Two studies suggest that EMDR is as effective as other psychotherapy treatments for PTSD, and 3 claim greater effectiveness. Cost per QALY ranged from Pounds 983 to Pounds 20,568. CONCLUSIONS: Further trials are needed with larger samples, and longer post-intervention measurement to assess maximum length of treatment effect, as well as to ascertain the effectiveness of different treatment components.

Outcomes indicated that EMDR desensitized the disturbing incident and that participants shifted their negative view to a more positive one. Work performance was restored or enhanced. In the 4th case EMDR appeared to decrease anxiety about job interviewing and the participant reported a satisfactory result. Findings suggest that EMDR is a promising adjunct to coaching for workplace performance enhancement.

Abstract:
The objectives of this presentation are to define ADHD in the various ways it presents adults, using EMDR cognitions and
observations of clients as clues; then, to clarify why and EMDR works differently before, during, and after diagnosis,
The presenter will provide background on the biological differences of those with the disorder, some thoughts on why this diagnosis
is becoming so frequent at this time, and why therapists who use EMDR may be more likely to have the disorder and to see it in their
clients.
During the workshop participants will explore their own attitudes toward ADHD and learn about how these attitudes influence their
ability to identify and assess ADHD symptoms in clients. Values, judgments and common myths about ADHD will be briefly
discussed.
Specific suggestions about modifying treatment when ADHD is suspected, suggested as a possible diagnosis to the client, and
treated will be given, including a list of modified positive cognitions. Treatment planning ideas for clients with a variety of
concurrent diagnoses will be offered, with special attention to the problems of resistance to the diagnosis, the medications use for
treatment, and the process of adapting patterns to solve specific problems, using a specific example a group treatment planning
exercise will be conducted. The actual treatment history of the case will be given clarifying how the treatment goals were reached.
There will he time for participants to formulate negative and positive cognitions regarding their attitudes toward ADHD clients and
the use of appropriate medications, and to assess the strength those attitudes, SUDS scales will be used.
Participants will have an opportunity to ask questions and will obtain a bibliography, a client questionnaire, a list of modified
cognitions, and a summary of resources for medical treatment, education and social support.

Abstract:
Our initial research study explored the therapist's ability to demonstrate fidelity to the EMDR protocol with young children. While data collection focused on documenting fidelity to the EMDR protocol, ancillary data emerged that identified skills and training that therapists needed in order to successfully implement the full EMDR protocol in the treatment of children. The preliminary content analysis of the data from the research group identified six major themes that impact treating children with the full EMDR protocol that include therapist issues, client issues, treatment issues, parent/home environment issues, clinical environment issues and therapist training issues. This presentation will review the findings from the research with focus on teaching specific skills for therapists to improve their practice of using EMDR with young children. Therapists need to understand the implication of attachment and attunement in the therapeutic relationship, the impact of parents and the home environment on the treatment, and learn skills to teach children emotional literacy in order to improve the efficacy of EMDR in the treatment of young children. This presentation will summarize the advanced skills that therapists working with young children will need after completing basic training in EMDR. With consultation focused on EMDR and additional training in using EMDR with young children, the research study has demonstrated that therapists trained in child development and play therapy can successfully implement the full eight phases of EMDR with children.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Many couples struggle with intimacy and sexuality issues, often, due to the harm done to one or both members of the couple by emotional and sexual abuse from their early childhoods. Dr. Treadway, who specializes in working with couples, will discuss how he utilizes adjunctive short term EMDR in his work with couples and their PTSD issues. Treadway will discuss both referring a member of a couple out for EMDR around their trauma issues so that they might have the privacy of a relationship with EMDR specialist, as well as the value of bringing an EMDR therapist into couples therapy as a consultation and piece of work with one or both members of the couple. Although not an EMDR practitioner himself, Dr. Treadway has profound respect for the therapeutic power of EMDR to clear significant trauma and help clients separate their past pain from their present lives and relationships. Dr. Treadway will also discuss how to integrate the deep healing work into the couple’s relationship in order to enhance their experience of a deep, compassionate, loving connection.

Language: Italian
Format: Conference
Abstract:
La rilevazione di disturbi uro-ginecologici è in costante crescita, è ciò probabilmente a causa della maggiore attenzione che i clinici dimostrano nei confronti di disturbi variegatati, a volte quasi impalpabili, ma che possono anche dimostrarsi invalidanti. Oltre al vaginismo e alla dispareunia, ben noti nella letteratura scientifica da decenni, crescente interesse stanno dimostrando disturbi come la cistite interstiziale, il dolore pelvico e la vulvodinia. Complessivamente considerati, la componente psicosomatica di tali disturbi viene abbondantemente confermata dalla letteratura.
A prescindere dagli approcci più chiaramente monolaterali e riduttivi, si nota nella letteratura un interesse consolidato per una terapia che sia per definizione integrata: ginecologica/riabilitativa, psicoeducazionale, sessuologica e psicoterapeutica.
L’EMDR si propone in questo ambito clinico come uno strumento di straordinaria versatilità, potendo infatti intervenire sia a livello delle cause remote (eventi stressanti/traumatici, educazione sessuale distorta, etc.), che delle contingenze attuali che mantengono o peggiorano la sintomatologia, offrendo inoltre la possibilità di intervenire direttamente sia sul dolore inteso come sintomo, che sugli scenari futuri connotati negativamente dalla paziente, che frequentemente sono connessi alla percezione del dolore stesso. Infine, si rivela di particolare utilità nel caso in cui il dolore sia correlato a difficoltà relazionali caratterizzate da scarsa assertività.
Nell’ambito del Workshop verranno approfondite le seguenti tematiche:
• Diagnosi differenziale tra i differenti tipi di dolore uro-ginecologico.
• Valutazione dell’eziologia multifattoriale: cause biologiche, psicosessuali, relazionali e presenza di eventi traumatici.
• Ruolo dell’abuso sessuale.
• Meccanismi psicofisiologici nell’insorgenza dei disturbi: il ruolo della tensione muscolare.
• Caratteristiche psicologiche della donna che presenta dolore uro-ginecologico.
• Strumenti di screening psicodiagnostico.
• Cenni sulle principali strategie di valutazione e di intervento uro-ginecologiche e farmacologiche
• Pianificazione e fasi del trattamento con l’EMDR, e loro integrazione con differenti approcci psicoterapeutici: aree di indagine, aspetti psicoeducazionali, tecniche sessuologiche specifiche, target caratteristici, l’utilizzo dell’EMDR nelle differenti fasi del trattamento.
The detection of uro-gynecological disorders is growing, this is probably due to the increased attention that clinicians demonstrate against variegatati disorders, sometimes almost intangible, but can also prove crippling. In addition to vaginismus and dyspareunia, well known in the scientific literature for decades, are showing increasing interest in disorders such as interstitial cystitis, pelvic pain and vulvodynia. Overall, the psychosomatic component of these disorders is abundantly confirmed by the literature.
Apart from unilateral and reductionist approaches more clearly, there is a vested interest in literature for a treatment that is by definition integrated: gynecological / rehabilitation, psycho-educational, sexology and psychotherapy.
EMDR is proposed in this clinical setting as an instrument of extraordinary versatility, allowing it to intervene at the level of remote causes (stressful events / trauma, distorted sex education, etc..) That the current quotas that maintain or worsen the symptoms, offering the possibility to intervene directly understood as a symptom is pain, which adversely on future scenarios of patient characteristics, which are frequently associated with pain perception itself. Finally, it proves particularly useful in cases where the pain is related to interpersonal difficulties characterized by lack of assertiveness.
As part of the workshop will examine the following issues:
• Differential diagnosis between different types of pain, uro-gynecology.
• Evaluation multifactorial etiology: biological, psychosexual, relationship and presence of traumatic events.
• Role of sexual abuse.
• psychophysiological mechanisms in the onset of the disorder: the role of muscle tension.
• Psychological characteristics of women with uro-gynecological pain.
• psycho-diagnostic screening tools.
• Work on the main strategies for assessment and intervention uro-gynecological and pharmacological
• Planning and stages of treatment with EMDR, and their integration with different psychotherapeutic approaches: areas of inquiry, psychoeducational aspects, technical sexological specific target features, using EMDR in different stages of treatment.

Abstract:
This workshop will teach you a simple and efficient way to organize any EMDR client file no matter how complex.
Mind mapping can lower overwhelming complexity of case files. This process was developed to help me with
efficient case planning. I will teach you how to keep track of targets, client resources, themes, connections
between targets, etc. while also providing a quick reference guide and way to plan sessions. Additionally, it
provides clients with feedback on what has been accomplished and is yet to complete. Clients have commented
that these maps have encouraged them as they can see clearly what they have completed, their strengths and
resources, and themes in their life. They also understand that as their therapist, I have a thorough understanding.
It also provides the therapist with a process to clarify where consultation is needed. Please bring a client file in
which you have permission to receive colleague consultation. A real client file will be provided for those who wish
not to bring a client file. Learning objectives:
• To learn an efficient and simple way to organize client files with mind mapping techniques
• To enhance case planning by identifying areas to be addressed through the re-organization of a file
• To review the EMDR protocol through the mind map process

Abstract:
EMDR training is always a challenge. Training paraprofessionals
across cultures in low- income countries in a safe and sustainable
way is an even greater challenge. Under the auspices of
EMDR-HAP, we recently offered training to paraprofessionals in Nepal,
who work with victims of torture. The training consisted of four key
elements:
1. The paraprofessionals who participated had been trained and
were experienced in effective counseling methods other than EMDR.
2. The training was tailored to the needs of the trainees, to
the needs of their clients, and included a significant amount
of supervised practice.
3. It was a combined effort with a visiting trainer and a seasoned
EMDR therapist who was associated with and had prepared the
trainees for the training.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Rationale: Because of high rates of trauma (44-100%) and abuse (23-77%) among PNEA
patients, it has been suggested that PNEA are a clinical expression of a PTSD subtype. Although
little is known about psychological treatments that are most effective with PNEA, EMDR has
proved to be an effective treatment for trauma and is now showing promise in the treatment of
PNEA patients with trauma and abuse histories. This presentation details outcomes of 74 patients
with PNEA, the majority of whom have such histories, who have been referred for mental health
treatment.
Methods: This study integrates EMDR into the mental health treatment of PNEA patients
referred after video EEG monitoring confirmed the presence of psychogenic attacks and
diagnostic interviews revealed virtually ubiquitous trauma and abuse histories/experiences. Data
were analyzed for patients referred over a 6-year period from a hospital-based clinic serving
Floridians and persons from the southeastern US.
Results: The study protocol was comprised of 2-3 initial sessions for diagnosis and rapport
building followed by weekly EMDR ranging from 3 to 15 sessions. Of 74 patients referred, 31
were from distant locales and were matched with mental health practitioners in their home
locations. 43 patients were interviewed; 20 were seen for consultation only - they refused
treatment, preferring to pursue disability benefits. 21 of 23 remaining had trauma and abuse
histories. 14 of those realized complete remission of PNEA with EMDR; 8 discontinued
treatment because of relocation, transportation difficulties, and the like. Followup reveals no
return to seizure status.
Conclusions: EMDR appears to be an efficacious intervention in the psychological treatment of
PNEA patients with trauma histories. A two year highly innovative single center randomized
controlled tial comparing EMDR with another innovative promising approach, Neurofeedback
Therapy (NFT) is planned for the fall of 2010 for 60 patients.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Objective: The present study would expose first results of a study about the consequences of family
violence act in a small group of women victims treated by EMDR therapy. Subjects: All of the victims
underwent EMDR therapy for seven 90-minute sessions. The subjects were included in the
therapeutic project for 12 months and were followed for 6 month after the end of the therapy.
Procedure: The victims (n=9) were referred by different associations of victims to consult with two of
the authors who took charge of all of the treatments. We have constructed a control group (n=9) with
the same characteristics (age, study level,...). After the first consultation a proposal was made to the
subjects to be part of a research protocol. The subjects then had to answer questions from Horowitz’s
Revised Impact Event Scale (Horowitz & al., 1979) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory –STAI-
(Spielberger & al. 1983). In the framework of therapeutic protocol, the subjects had to do a SUDS
evaluation. These different measures were administered to all of the subjects before beginning the
therapy (T1), after the seven sessions of EMDR (T2), and six months later (T3). Main results: Because
of the small size of the sample and a non-normal distribution, the data were processed with nonparametric
tests. We show differences between victims and non victims in the beginning of therapy.
The victims have higher scores in the IES-R and STAI than the control subjects. Difference continues
for the all duration of the experimentation, but the assessments after seven sessions and after six
months show fewer differences. It’s important to note that the differences between the pre-test, the
postest and the evaluation after six months are shown to be equally very significant, indicating a very
positive effect with EMDR on the reduction of intrusive symptoms and avoidance.

own institution and how to deal with.
Methods: Analysis of scientific
literature and consultation with various
guidelines, and case studies on implementation.
Results: In recent years there is increasing
research into diagnostics and
psychotrauma treatment in children and
adolescents. This involves developing
of screening and diagnostic tools
and research into effects of treatment.
Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy and eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) are effective forms of treatment. Implementation this knowledge in clinical practice runs difficult and requires a different way of working alongside the clinicians also an organizational structure facilitating this work. Conclusion: Evidence-based trauma assessment
and treatment is available. Implementation
this knowledge in clinical practice
is important and requires a different expertise. Knowing is not to apply.

Abstract:
This article proposes that eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) would be strengthened
by being conceptualized as a two-person therapy; that is, a therapy that employs dialogue between clinician
and client about the resonance, attunement, and intention of their relationship. Current research on
the mirror neuron system provides a hypothetical neurological underpinning to this proposal. Detailed
clinical examples illustrate rupture (Now Moments) and subsequent repair (Moments of Meeting) of the
therapeutic relationship in the Eight Phases of EMDR. The high potential for relationship rupture during
EMDR therapy is discussed. Suggestions are made for improving EMDR practice, training, and consultation
by attending to the intersubjective experience between client and clinician, especially when working
with clients who have experienced repeated and pervasive disappointments in love and work.

Cet article avance l’idée qu’il serait avantageux de conceptualiser l’EMDR (désensibilisation et retraitement
par les mouvements oculaires) comme une thérapie à deux personnes, c’est-à-dire une thérapie
qui emploie le dialogue entre le thérapeute et le patient autour de la résonance, de l’accordage mutuel
et de l’objectif de leur relation. Les recherches en cours sur le système des neurones-miroirs fournissent
une possible base neurologique à cette proposition. Des exemples cliniques détaillés illustrent la rupture
(moments urgents) et la réparation subséquente (moments de rencontre) de la relation thérapeutique
au cours des huit phases EMDR. Nous exposons le risque élevé de rupture de la relation au cours de la
thérapie EMDR. Nous faisons des propositions pour améliorer la pratique, la formation et les consultations
d’EMDR en prêtant attention à l’expérience intersubjective entre le patient et le thérapeute, en

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Most Approved Consultants have identified a significant need to define “standards” for each level of EMDRIA credentialing. Currently, EMDRIA only requires documentation of consultation hours and continued education credits. These are not proficiency-based requirements hence no consistent standards are defined, suggested or upheld. One consideration is the Core Competency Model as a theoretical framework to help explore setting credentialing standards. In this workshop, this Model will be explained briefly as well as how it could be applied to setting standards. According to this model, highly effective therapists think, act and reflect differently than less effective therapists. Using this framework, the essential competencies (i.e., knowledge, skills and attitudes) to be demonstrated at each level of credentialing will be explored. Lastly, some options of how to assess and measure the necessary knowledge and skills will be suggested. Attendees will be able to describe the Core Competency Model as a theoretical framework for credentialing; understand how to apply this Model to setting specific credentialing standards; identity the knowledge, skills and attitudes that are necessary at each level of credentialing; and identify the suggested methods of how the necessary knowledge and skills can be demonstrated, as well as assessed and measured.

Abstract:
EMDR Consultants face the challenging task of providing consultation to EMDR therapists so they can help those therapists understand the nature of ethical EMDR practice and then apply those principals within their practice. In addition, practicing EMDR consultation ethically carries its own challenges. This workshop will: explore the ethical principals that are especially uniquely relevant to EMDR consultation; discuss the meaning of ethical consultation for EMDR consultants; and describe strategies for facilitating ethical practice among their consultees. While participants will be asked to work within their own discipline’s ethical standards, the workshop will use the ethical code of the American Psychological Association as its reference point (because this is what EMDRIA utilizes when there is no ethical code that applies to a particular practitioner). Practitioners who are governed by an ethical code (e.g. nurses, social workers, marriage and family therapists) should review their own ethical codes prior to coming to the workshop.

Abstract:
Given the diversity of the therapists
who are interested in EMDR, an old
debate may be fruitfully revived. Does
therapy consist of task-oriented collaborative
consultation and guidance,
or is the negotiation of the therapeutic
relationship itself the primary task?
To the extent that EMDR may constitute
a new treatment context, the role
of the therapeutic relationship in
EMDR treatment is of particular interest.
How much of EMDR is inside
the client, and how much is between
the client and the therapist? Is successful
EMDR simply a function of the client's (guided) internal processing,
or is it somehow dependent upon the
quality of the therapeutic relationship,
or is it both.

Abstract:
Objectif: présenter les résultats d'une étude réalisée dans le cadre du traitement des victimes de la route. Nous avons fait la distinction entre les sujets qui ont présenté un (complet n = 16) ou une forme partielle (n = 8) du syndrome de stress post-traumatique (définie par la présence de grappes A et B et l'un des groupes C ou D ).
Sujets: Toutes les victimes (âge moyen: 34,3, s = 4,19; 17 hommes et 7 femmes) ont subi une thérapie EMDR pour quatre séances de 90 minutes. Les sujets ont été inclus dans le projet thérapeutique de 18 mois et ont été suivis pendant 6 mois après la fin de la thérapie.
Procédure: Les sujets ont été envoyées par différentes associations de victimes de consulter l'un des auteurs qui ont pris en charge tous les traitements, après la première consultation, une proposition a été faite au sujet de faire partie d'un protocole de recherche. Après des explications ont été données au diagnostic (complet vs partielle SSPT) a été faite par les deux autres co-auteurs qui ont également participé à l'évaluation des différentes phases.
Les sujets devaient ensuite répondre aux questions de l'échelle d'impact de l'événement d'Horowitz (Horowitz et al, 1979) et la State-Trait Anxiety Inventory - STAI (Spielberger et al 1983). Dans le cadre du protocole thérapeutique, les sujets devaient faire une évaluation SUDS (Wolpe, 1990) qui mesure l'état de détresse concevable par le patient, évalué sur un formulaire échelle de 0 (aucun) à 10 (le pire). Ces différentes mesures ont été administrés à tous les sujets avant de commencer le traitement (T1), après quatre séances de l'EMDR (T2), et six mois plus tard (T3).
Principaux résultats: En raison de la petite taille de l'échantillon et une distribution non normale, les données ont été traitées avec des tests non paramétriques (Mann et Whitney pour les groupes indépendants et de Wilcoxon pour les mesures appariées). [Tableau 1 de l'étude des données du Programme de la conférence originale abstraite ne figurent pas ici.]
Les différences entre le prétest, post-test et l'évaluation après six mois sont montrés également très importante, indiquant un effet très positif avec l'EMDR sur la réduction des symptômes intrusifs et d'évitement. Les effets positifs du traitement sur l'anxiété de la victime peuvent également être des notes, ainsi que sur la réduction de la mousse.
Objective: To present the results of a study carried out in the framework of treating road victims. We have made the distinction between the subjects who presented a complete (n=16) or a partial form (n=8) of post-traumatic stress disorder (defined by the presence of clusters A and B and one of the clusters C or D).
Subjects: All the victims (mean age: 34.3, s=4.19; 17 men and 7 women) underwent EMDR therapy for four 90 minute sessions. The subjects were included in the therapeutic project for 18 months and were followed for 6 months after the end of the therapy.
Procedure: The subjects were sent by different associations of victims to consult with one of the authors who took charge of all of the treatments, After the first consultation, a proposal was made to the subject to be part of a research protocol. After explanations were given the diagnosis (complete vs. partial PTSD) was made by the other two co-authors who also participated in evaluations of the different phases.
The subjects then had to answer questions from Horowitz’s Impact Event Scale (Horowitz et al, 1979) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory – STAI (Spielberger et al 1983). In the framework of therapeutic protocol, the subjects had to do a SUDS evaluation (Wolpe, 1990) which measures the state of distress conceivable by the patient, evaluated on a scale form 0 (none) to 10 (the worst). These different measures were administered to all of the subjects before beginning the therapy (T1), after four sessions of EMDR (T2), and six months later (T3).
Main results: Because of the small size of the sample and a non-normal distribution, the data was processed with non-parametric tests (Mann and Whitney for the independent groups and Wilcoxon for the paired measures). [Table 1 of study's data from the original Conference Program abstract not included here.]
The differences between the pretest, the posttest and the evaluation after six months are shown to be equally very significant, indicating a very positive effect with EMDR on the reduction of intrusive symptoms and avoidance. The positive effects of the treatment on the victim’s anxiety can also be notes, as well as on the reduction of the SUDS.

Language: English
Format: Audio
Abstract:
For over a decade, eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) has been gaining attention and momentum as an effective therapeutic tool for treating a range of trauma and phobic disorders. More and more therapists are seeking proper training to be able to incorporate EMDR into their practices. But often, therapists leave EMDR training enthusiastic, desiring to use these techniques in their practice, only to lose their nerve when encountering difficulties and treatment obstacles. Somehow, the theory learned in training is hard to translate into clinical practice. In A therapist's guide to EMDR, Parnell addresses this common dilemma by offering therapists an all-in-one, practical handbook for skillfully and successfully using EMDR in their practices. Drawing on fifteen years of experience as a pioneering EMDR clinician and trainer, Parnell bridges the gap between EMDR training and actual practice by identifying and exploring the four areas where most EMDR-trained therapists need help: case formulation, ego strengthening, target development, and processing difficulties. After a helpful refresher on basic EMDR procedure and protocol, as well as a discussion of how to modify these steps to fit your client's needs, Parnell delves into the areas essential to successful utilization of EMDR with clients: case conceptualization; preparation for EMDR trauma processing, including resource development and installation; target development; methods for unblocking blocked processing, including the creative use of interweaves; and session closure. A step-by-step description of a typical EMDR session is also presented, including all the major procedural steps, followed by an explanation of the clinical applications of EMDR in working with phobias, traumas, and critical incidents. Case examples, vignettes, and illustrations throughout help to clarify important concepts. Written in an accessible and practical style by someone who has trained thousands of EMDR practitioners, Parnell bases the book on on-the-ground experience of doing EMDR, incorporating the tools, techniques, and tips she has generated and gathered from conferences, workshops, and consultation with colleagues, as well from her own clinical experience. Perhaps most importantly, she acknowledges the unique approaches to EMDR use that are possible, emphasizing therapist-client flexibility, attunement, and intuition, rather than rigidity of practice. For EMDR-trained therapists who would like a little help integrating EMDR into their day-to-day practice, A therapist's guide to EMDR is a useful resource.

Abstract:
EMDR is both a trauma resolution method and a
comprehensive phase model of trauma treatment.
EMDR training has typically focused primarily
on the trauma resolution method (phases 3-7 of
the protocol), with only passing mention of the
rest of the treatment approach. This leaves many
EMDR trained clinicians unsure how to identify
clients for whom EMDR may be appropriate, how
to prepare their clients adequately for EMDR, and
how to identify appropriate targets(and target
order) for EMDR. In this workshop participants
will learn, and practice, how to conceptualize a
case from a trauma perspective, so that the clients'
presenting problems can be directly related to the
clients trauma/loss history. Participants will
learn, and practice, explaining this to their clients,
so they can develop a treatment plan (including
EMDR) accordingly. Participants will learn a
phase model of trauma treatment that is consistent
with EMDR while providing more detailed
guidance in phases 1,2, and 8 of the EMDR
protocol. Participants will learn a systematic
approach to preparing clients for EMDR.
Participants will also learn, and practice, applying
this model in asystematic way to problem-solving
their own challenging cases, as well as to
supervision and consultation.

Abstract:
In order to get a complete and comprehensive case
conceptualization in Phase 1 of the EMDR protocol, it is important
to explore dissociative symptomatology. But the cinicai
picture of dissociation may be difficult to identify for inexperienced clinicians; some symptoms can be difficult to observe
even for experienced therapist who haven't seen severe cases.
in consultation we often find therapist who bring a 'complex
case' for supervision and quite frequently this 'complexity' has
to do with dissociation. Our goal with this presentation is to
show the many different ways dissociation can be manifested
during EMDR sessions. Another goal is to give practical examples
of interventions with dissociative patients during EMDR
processing. Many examples of subtle manifestations (what we
call 'dissociative language') will be illustrated with video cases.
Severely traumatized people don't communicate in a direct and
clear way, they have their 'own language' and in order to understand
the patient's inner world, we need to understand the
silences, the somatic symptoms the subtle (and not so subtle)
intrusions; all of these are frequent symptoms that the patient
can't detect, understand or disclose to us (not directly).
It is widely known that EMDR clinicians must be careful when
dealing with dissociative patients; techniques that can be used
during the stabilization phase have been developed for the
treatment of dissociative disorders (Knipe, Forgash .......). These
techniques are complementary to the basic protocols and are
very useful but the problem arises when therapists are not able
to identify and/or understand what we call the 'dissociative
language'.
We must keep in mind that most dissociative patients have
grown in an early environment where their needs were not taken
into account. Many never had the possibility to express their
feelings openly. For this, it is important to focus and under^
stand the indirect, complex and ambivalent communication of
these people especially during an EMDR session. The approach
to these difficulties is not only a question of protocol modifications.
but a complex learning from the therapist of the 'dissociative
language'. Several examples from videos of therapy
sessions and case descriptions will be presented.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
Psychotherapy treatment with sexual abuse survivors is often lengthy and complex. For
therapists and patients alike, intrusive and dissociative aspects of Post Traumatic Stress
symptoms in combination with self injurious behavior, mood disorders and current problems
produce a variety of treatment difficulties. These range from dealing with destabilization,
dissociative episodes and crisis intervention to more typical treatment impasses and resistances.
These difficulties and resistances to theraputic work may involve a range of fears of
exposure, violating early taboos against "telling", sequelae to revelations, and overwhelming
shame and concern about rejection by the therapist. Other patient concerns are of being flooded
by feelings and memories; or of dissociating in such a way as to remain "lost" to themselves.
Stuck, immobilized and frozen in this state. the patient may have a sense of "pseudosafety"
in the familiarity of these feelings. At the same time, as the symptoms persist with small
or no reduction in levels of distress, patients may experience high levels of frustration. increased
feelings of defeat, depression and anxiety. Loss of motivation and belief in the efficacy of
therapy often follows.
At such times, the therapist may wish to consider EMDR as an adjunctive course of
treatment to resolve problems such as the above.

Clinicians refer patients for psychiatric consultations group work and to therapists who specialize in problem areas such as panic disorder, trauma, child abuse issues and substance abuse. Such traumas as child sexual abuse, family violence and disasters result in a large population suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and other Dissociative Disorders.

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.
