Abstract:
Naast een op de toepassing gerichte theoretische inleiding krijgt u meerdere demonstraties voorgeschoteld van de EMDR behandeling van migraine en hoofdpijn. Live en video. U kunt zich een eerste indruk vormen van methode, werkwijze en effectiviteit van de behandeling. Circa 15% van de mensheid heeft last van deze pijnsoort. Migraine komt bij vrouwen ongeveer driemaal zo vaak voor als bij mannen. De meeste medicijnen bieden geen oplossing op langere termijn, hebben bovendien als bijwerking hoofdpijnklachten. De Wereld Gezondheid Organisatie, WHO, heeft in 2011 aandacht gevraagd voor de ontwikkeling van nieuwe behandelmethoden, mede gelet het enorme productiviteitsverlies in de wereld. Werkgevers en Arbo-diensten hebben interesse in deze vorm van behandelen van werknemers.
De geïntegreerde EMDR behandeling bestaat uit twee fasen; fase 1 is gericht op repressie: de behandeling van acute pijnklachten. Fase 2 is gericht op preventie: het voorkomen van pijnaanvallen in de toekomst. Cliënten hebben onmiddellijk baat bij de behandeling. Tijdens de workshop wordt tot slot informatie gegeven over de Nederlandse Special Interest Group (SIG) EMDR en Hoofdpijn.

You can first impression of method, process and effectiveness of treatment. Approximately 15% of humanity suffers from this kind of pain. Migraine affects women about three times as often as men. Most drugs do not address the longer term, also have as a side effect headaches. The World Health Organization, WHO, in 2011 has drawn attention to the development of new treatment methods, taking into account the enormous loss of productivity in the world. Employers and occupational health services are interested in this form of treatment of workers. The integrated EMDR treatment consists of two phases: Phase 1 focused on repression: the treatment of acute pain. Phase 2 focuses on prevention: prevention of pain attacks in the future. Clients benefit directly from the treatment. During the workshop, finally, information about the Dutch Special Interest Group (SIG) EMDR and Headache.

Congresso AIAMC, Palermo, Italia.

Abstract:
L’Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) nasce come
interevento elettivo nella terapia del Disturbo Post-traumatico da Stress
(PTSD) e, in particolar modo nelle fasi iniziali del suo consolidamento
clinico e teoretico, ha calibrato il proprio protocollo di intervento standard sul
PTSD generato da combattimenti bellici, catastrofi naturali e provocate
dall’uomo. L’abuso sessuale, soprattutto se avvenuto nell’infanzia, in modo
prolungato ed all’interno di un contesto familiare (ovvero il tipo di abuso
sessuale sul quale concentrerò ora la mia attenzione), è un tipo di evento
traumatico che può presentare caratteristiche peculiari: elementi dissociativi
da marcati ad assenti, alterazioni mnestiche e codifiche mnestiche statodipendenti,
massicci meccanismi di repressione operanti anche per decenni,
condizionamento negativo dell’evoluzione del sistema comportamentale
dell’attaccamento, presenza di memorie somatiche di difficile gestione da
parte del paziente, disturbi sessuali, difficoltà nell’instaurazione e nel
mantenimento della relazione terapeutica. L’abuso sessuale intrafamiliare si
accompagna abitualmente alla trascuratezza emotiva ed alla violenza
psicologica, in alcuni casi anche a quella fisica. Di fronte ad un quadro
2
clinico così complesso (laddove la presenza di PTSD è semplicemente uno
dei possibili esiti psicopatologici, e con ogni probabilità non il più
frequente), l’intervento con l’EMDR richiede modificazioni rispetto al
protocollo standard di intervento per il PTSD ma, soprattutto, l'inserimento
all'interno di un intervento clinico di respiro decisamente più ampio rispetto
all’impiego di algoritmi terapeutici ridotti all’essenziale. Il sottoscritto ritiene
che, al momento attuale, lo studio più approfondito sull’argomento sia una
pubblicazione di Laurel Parnell del 1999. Personalmente, ed in modo
concorde con quest’ultimo autore, ho verificato la notevole efficacia
nell’operare con l'EMDR - anche molto direttivamente - sulla storia di
attaccamento del paziente al fine di colmarne le falle evolutive o eliminare gli
ostacoli per il conseguimento di questo fondamentale obiettivo terapeutico.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
A special variety of dynamic therapy is presented which was successfully
combined with EMDR. A new diagnostic category is tentatively proposed.
A man in his twenties, successful in studies and in political and welfare
organizations, managed his life by intellectual consideration but with hardly any
emotional assessment being at a loss when confronted with demands for a personal
stand.
He disliked his lack of integrity and indecision which he liberated himself
from during the initial three years of therapy in so far as friends and societies were
concerned. However, all his intimate relations kept breaking up. He could not account
for why and in this context he appeared to be alexithym.
When the partner left him it was a total surprise to him, he got very upset in a
diffuse way and quite bewildered. At some occasions he got regressive spells of
yelling, crying and struggling. They seemed to be flashbacks and not a hysterical
acting out.
As a trauma might be an etiological factor I proposed EMDR and he accepted
to try it. During four EMDR-sessions memories with intense emotional involvement
appeared. Altogether the material made me venture a construction of him as a baby
yelling and kicking in desperate need for a mother who kept being absent. Shortly
afterwards he entered a relation that was satisfying to both him and his partner. The
therapy was terminated. In a follow up two years later the relation was still good and
he told me that the construction had made him grasp his life-history.
A prerequisite for the EMDR-sessions and their effect was the three years of
psychotherapy with the focusing of his central problem, but the liberation from this
problem could not have been reached without EMDR -at least not in such a short
time.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
This is a case presentation regarding the treatment of a severely traumatized woman
formerly treated for depression and PTSD following incarceration in prison,
“disappearance” of husband, and torture. After psychotherapy for several years, the
patient improved and started to work in a qualified job. After some years, however, the
patient returns because she has a feeling that the therapy was unfinished, and because of
remaining psychosomatic symptoms, difficulties breathing, obesity, overeating, and
recurrent urinary tract infections. The therapist then decided to try the resource installation
protocol. However, in an impulse, he asked her to concentrate on her bodily sensations.
Several video-recorded sequences illustrate how the patient, seemingly for the first time in
her life, discovered and re-experienced childhood trauma. It seems that the eye
movements during attempts at EMDR treatment made it possible to lift repression and
dissociation as well as to make processing possible, thus liberating the patient from a
heavy burden of mental and psychosomatic symptoms. At follow-up by the second author,
the patient is entirely asymptomatic, with low DES scores and is no longer obese.
Learning objectives:
1. Somatoform symptoms as a bridge to dissociated traumatic childhood experiences
2. How dissociation might lift during treatment
3. Recent research findings regarding the effect of eye movements on episodic
memory.

Language: English
Format: Conference
Abstract:
The identification and description of different defense mechanisms was one of Freud’s early discoveries. Defense mechanisms are defined as unconscious strategies in order to protect the subject from painful and anxious emotions or affects. The first defense mechanism described by Freud was repression. The repression is defined as the process in which unacceptable impulses and/or affects associated with traumatic experiences, or unresolved conflicts are repressed into the unconscious.
During the last 100 years, a number of discussions and controversies have taken place regarding repression. Are the so-called repressed memories and experiences stored somewhere? In that care, how can the subject get access to such repressed memories during the psychotherapeutic process?
Originally, Freud suggested hypnosis and later on free associations as a way of accessing repressed and unprocessed traumatic experiences and the underlying emotional conflicts in ‘neurotic’ psychopathology.
Is it possible to use EMDR in order to track down repressed memories of severe traumatic memories? If this is indeed possible, can EMDR make possible both a re-experiencing and a processing of the conflictual content? Is it possible to work through and integrate shame, guilt, and hate associated with grave abuse through EMDR treatment?
During this workshop, an extensive clinical material is presented from treatment sessions with Grace, a woman of 55 with severely traumatic background (torture, prison, and childhood sexual abuse). During the workshop, several video-taped sequences will serve as examples of the remarkable findings as Grace, assisted by eye movements, for the first time recovers and re-experiences severely traumatic childhood experiences.
The EMDR treatment works simultaneously in disarming repression, to process, and to liberate her from severe psychosomatic symptoms; symptoms which have neither found explanation nor remedy during a long treatment process.

Language: English
Format: Other
Abstract:
Low sexual desire disorder is the most common sexual dysfunction in women. There is no standard definition for "normal" sexual desire and there are many factors that can influence it, hence, low desire can be one of the more difficult sexual dysfunctions treat. Given its inherent complexity, it frequently requires interdisciplinary assessment and treatment. The present symposium is an attempt to share our model for the treatment of this widespread and yet, poorly understood dysfunction. One component of the complexity of low sexual desire is its correlation with other difficulties, for example, PTSD, depression, anxiety, relationship disturbance, physical illness, and life stress. Another one of these concerns is childhood sexual abuse. EMDR has been used very successfully to resolve the trauma associated with sexual assault as well as sexual dysfunctions. We will illustrate the use of EMDR with a woman presenting with low sexual desire and a history of sexual abuse. EMDR methodology will be described. The use of EMDR for abuse recovery as a method of resolving low desire will be discussed. We will explore a number of important therapeutic issues including: (1) fundamental questions of responsibility, control and safety as they relate to sexual abuse and ultimately sexual desire in the current relationship; (2) individuation from partner and perpetrator, barriers to this process and the impact on sexual desire of successful differentiation; and (3) repression of anger and the concomitant physical manifestations. In addition, we will discuss the collaboration with both sexual medicines and psychiatry around modulation of medications to maximize treatment outcomes with EMDR.

Language: English
Format: Newsletter
Abstract:
It appears as though one of the heritages
ofthe psychodynmc model is the belief
in the need for "uncovering memories"
as necessary prerequisites for "working
themthrough." Consequently, it appears
as though some EMDR-trained clinicians
have decided to use a combination
of EMDR and hypnosis for "memory
retrieval." While hypnosis has been a
highly successful and standard form of
practice for many years, its interaction
effects with EMDR have not been systematically
investigated. Therefore, I
would like to issue some additional words
of caution in this regard, since each
clinician is bound to approach issues of
possible "repression" and "resistance"
in ahighly subjective manner. The points
are made below in order to highlight
factors that might possibly have been
forgotten or overlooked by some clinicians
in the merging of variant models.
