Abstract:
As a physician board-certified in Psychiatry,
Addiction Medicine, Addiction
Psychiatry, Sexology, Traumatology, and with
credentials in Massage Therapy, EMDR, and
as a Forensic Examiner, I have worked in
almost every practice setting imaginable and
with a broad variety of patients. Having been
based from a hospital, community clinic,
halfway-house residence, private office,
Veterans Administration Medical Center,
training institution, and doing outreach on the
streets, I am clinically familiar with the
behavioral challenges of children, adolescents,
young adults, old adults, couples, families, and
groups manifesting acute symptoms and
exacerbations of chronic disorders, with and
without chemical dependency, physical
problems, and sociological impairments. I like
to teach trainees, do interactive lectures, travel
and experience ‘difference.’ It is thus that I
have found myself a settled homeowner on
Saipan, a Manhattan-sized island that, as part
of the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands (U.S.), is the farthest-flung American
overseas possession. Always the outsider; here
among the various tan tones of complexion
found among the indigenous of the western
Pacific, I have experimented with several
interventional strategies, both to establish
rapport and some trust and also to start creating
that unique and culturally competent treatment
modality that will foster growth among my
patients. Cognitive-behavioral approaches
generally work better than insight-oriented
ones because of the ‘here-and-now’ mindset
of Chamorros, Carolinians, Yapese, Chukese,
Pohnpeians, Kosraeans, and Filipinos who
comprise the population base here. Let me
briefly discuss one fascinating case. Twenty two
year old Chamolinian woman, married and
with three young children was involved in a
minor motor vehicle accident. This accident was
a spinoff of a more serious one primarily
involving two other vehicles. In a large truck
(Toyota T100), she was not hurt, and the two
children riding with her were also unharmed.

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:
Objectives: Dysesthetic vulvodynia plays an important role in the sexology of the most common female genital system disorders; its psychosomatic origin is by now widely acknowledged.
Its main symptoms are: acute pain at each penetration attempt (dyspareunia), pain under local pressure on the vaginal vestibule, erythemas of different intensities.
In recent years the role of childhood sexual abuse as one of the possible predisposing (vulnerability) factors of vulvodynia development has found positive confirmations in the literature. Author's aims are to verify this correlation and check efficacy of specific psychotherapeutical approaches.
Method: The choice of psychodiagnostic reactive tests, such as the Sexuality Questionnaire (symptomatology screening), the recent Female Sexual Disorders Analytical Questionnaire (screening and sexual abuse) and the Chronic Pain Risk Factors Questionnaire, assessing stressful and traumatic events such as sexual abuse, to identify vulvodynia is of particular importance.
The therapeutic approach presented here is integrated: gynecological, physical-rehabilitational, psycho-educational and psycho-sexological.
Results and conclusions; The psychological therapies recommended for the treatment of this disorder and the associated abuse (substantiated by international literature and years of clinical practice) are EMDR and hypnotic psychotherapy, integrated with sexological techniques, starting from the assumption that any eventual effective therapy of vulvodynia cannot but include appropriate (psychosomatic and not merely verbal) processing of the childhood sexual abuse.
