Abstract:
L'EMDR est une approche psychothérapie intégrative proposé de traiter un large éventail de troubles psychologiques. Il s'agit de la première revue française de l'efficacité de l'EMDR. L'efficacité EMDR est d'abord montrer par des études de cas non contrôlé qui souffre d'importantes lacunes méthodologiques. études de cas expérimentale des résultats équivoques. Des études contrôlées sont ensuite examinés en fonction du type de contrôle expérimental utilisé et le type de trouble traité. EMDR semble aussi efficace que la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale pour le traitement du trouble de stress post-traumatique, mais la thérapie cognitivo-comportementale reste le traitement de choix pour la phobie spécifique et le trouble panique. En outre, des études montrent que le démantèlement de façon répétée les mouvements oculaires ne sont pas nécessaires à l'efficacité de l'EMDR. Une analyse des différences et des similitudes entre l'EMDR et l'approche cognitivo-comportementale est présentée. pseudoscience éléments intégrés dans le développement de l'EMDR et la diffusion sont également présentées.

EMDR is an integrative psychotherapy approach proposed to treat a wide range of psychological disorders. This is the first French review of EMDR effectiveness. The EMDR effectiveness is initially show with uncontrolled cases studies that suffers from important methodological weaknesses. Experimental case studies provide equivocal results. Controlled studies are then reviewed as a function of the type of experimental control used and the type of disorder treated. EMDR appears as effective as cognitive-behavioral therapy for the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder but cognitive-behavioral therapy remains the treatment of choice for specific phobia and panic disorder. In addition, dismantling studies repeatedly show that eye movements are not necessary for the efficacy of EMDR. An analysis of the differences and similarities between EMDR and the cognitive behavioral approach is presented. Pseudoscience elements embedded in EMDR development and diffusion are also presented.

Psychotraumatologic hospitalary unit for severe psychiatric patients and EMDR [Una unidad de psicotraumatología para el tratamiento con EMDR de pacientes psiquiátricos graves en un hospital público]. Presentation at the annual meeting of the EMDR Europe Association, Madrid, Spain.

Language: English

Abstract:
Psichotraumatology is a discipline that has had a rapid development in recent years and their knowledge has become indispensable for the treatment of severe psychiatric illness. In our country, Uruguay, South America, in a public psychiatric hospital unit, is being developed a clinic for treatment of patients with simple and complex PTSD with EMDR with promising results. We serve a population of very low-­‐income patients. Some of them are hospitalized for crimes committed during psychiatric decompensation (theft, murder, violation) We will present the basics for creating such unit in a psychiatric treatment setting as well as our work with hospital inpatients and outpatients . EMDR turns out to be a first line psychotherapeutic approach for these patients.

La psicotraumatología es una disciplina que ha experimentado un desarrollo muy rápidos en los últimos años hasta el punto de que se ha hecho indispensable contar con conocimientos al respecto para el tratamiento de las enfermedades psiquiátricos graves. En nuestro país, Uruguay, Sudamérica se está desarrollando una clínica dentro de una unidad de psiquiatría perteneciente a un hospital público para el tratamiento de pacientes con TEPT simple y complejo con EMDR y con resultados prometedores. Servimos a una población de pacientes de rentas muy bajas. Algunos están hospitalizados por crímenes cometidos durante un episodio de descompensación psiquiátrica (robo, asesinato, violación). Presentaremos las consideraciones básicas para crear una unidad de estas características en el entorno terapéutico psiquiátrico junto con nuestro trabajo con pacientes ingresados y ambulatorios. Resulta que EMDR es un planteamiento psicoterapéutico de primera línea para estos pacientes.

Language: English

Format: Journal

Abstract:
The experimental literature on individual and group psychological treatments for adult disorders is reviewed. For each of the 11 disorders or problems covered, treatments that fall into the following categories, as defined by D.L. Chambless and S. D. Hollon (1998), are identified: efficacious and specific, efficacious, and possibly efficacious. Behavioral and cognitive-behavioral treatments dominate the lists, especially in the anxiety disorders, with notable exceptions. Reasons for the hegemony of the behavioral and cognitive modalities are discussed, and some limitations of the empirically supported treatment concept are addressed. Continued research is recommended on Aptitude x Treatment interactions, cost-benefit ratios, and generalization of treatments to a variety of patient populations, therapists, and treatment settings.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
This workshop will teach participants some ways to perceive, articulate and process developmental injuries manifest in the body. Participants will learn to "read" the body for negative beliefs, to evoke the negative cognition by a combination of directed mindfulness and bilateral stimulation and to enhance the processing and installation of resources by interweaving somatic elements with EMDR.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Interactions between trauma and biology, dissociation and psychosis are complex. Some cases could be more biologically based, and traumatic events may trigger a psychotic episode or contribute to the low-response to usual interventions. But traumatic experiences could also influence neurodevelopment and brain structure. In some cases past adverse events may be a main factor in the development of psychotic psychopathology. The treatment of psychotic disorders with a specifically trauma-oriented therapy as EMDR, can help us to evaluate the relative contribution of these different factors from clinical results. The empirical research about the application of EMDR will be also reviewed. A relevant point for EMDR therapy in psychotic disorders is the complex relationship between dissociation and psychosis. Patients presenting with the belief of being controlled by an external force, intrusive thoughts and hallucinatory voices that comment on one's thoughts or actions or that have a conversation with other hallucinated voices, are easily diagnosed as schizophrenic or psychotic but can often be best understood and approached as dissociative symptoms. These patients can be treated with EMDR, but the procedures present relevant modifications in relation with the standard EMDR procedure for PTSD. In this workshop we will briefly describe how EMDR can be applied in different examples of psychotic patients, and based on these clinical examples (presented a case-descriptions or videos, we will reflect on the previously described aspects.

Las interacciones entre trauma y biología, disociación y psicosis son complejas. Algunos casos pueden estar más basados en el ámbito biológico, y los eventos traumáticos pueden ser disparadores de un episodio psicótico o contribuir a la baja respuesta ante las intervenciones usuales. Pero las experiencias traumáticas pueden también influenciar el neurodesarrollo y la estructura cerebral. En Algunos casos eventos adversos del pasado pueden ser el principal factor para desarrollar psicosis o una psicopatología. El tratamiento de los trastornos psicóticos con un terapia orientada al trauma como el EMDR nos ayudan a evaluar la contribución relativa de distintos factores a los resultados clínicos. La investigación empírica acerca de la aplicación del EMDR también será revisada. Un punto relevante de la Terapia EMDR en trastornos psicóticos es el resultado complejo de la relación entre disociación y psicosis. Los pacientes que presentan creencias de control por fuerzas externas, pensamientos intrusivos y voces alucinatorias que comentan las acciones o pensamientos o tienen una conversación con otras voces alucinatorias, normalmente son diagnosticadas como esquizofrenia y psicosis pero en algunas ocasiones estarían mejor entendidas desde un enfoque que las considerara síntomas disociativos. Estos pacientes pueden ser tratados con EMDR, pero los procedimientos presentan modificaciones referentes al procedimiento estándar de EMDR para el TEPT.

Abstract:
Die INTAKT (Integrated traumaassociated kurzfristige Psychotherapie) eingeführt wurde, eine Intervention in einem "Ambulante Ressource-orientierten Gruppe" ARG für akute traumatisierten Patienten in Kombination mit EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization und die Wiederaufbereitung). Die Studie und die wichtigsten Ergebnisse ausgesetzt sind. Durch den Vergleich der Behandlungen "ARG" und "INTAKT" wird gezeigt, dass Interventionen Gruppe wirksam bei akuter-traumatisierten Patienten und hilfsbereit im Laufe der Behandlung sind. Für einige Patienten der Gruppe Interventionen führen zu einer signifikanten Reduktion Symptom. Für andere die stabilisierende Wirkung der "Ambulante Ressource-orientierten Gruppe" ermöglichen diesen Patienten zu einer frühen Übergang zu EMDR. Die Wirkung der INTAKT-Behandlung scheint zu sein, besser als die anderen Behandlungen.

The INTAKT (Integrated traumaassociated short-term psychotherapy) was introduced, a intervention in a "Ambulant Ressource-oriented Group" ARG for acute traumatized patients in combination with EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing). The study and the most important results are exposed. By comparing the treatments "ARG" and "INTAKT" is shown, that group interventions are effective for acute-traumatized patients and helpful in the course of the treatment. For some patients the group interventions lead to a significant symptom reduction. For others the stabilizing effects of the "Ambulant Ressource-oriented Group" enable these patients to a early transition to EMDR. The effect of the INTAKT-treatment seems to be superior to the other treatments.

Abstract:
Die Geschichtsbücher über die Kriege zeichnen ein furchtbares Bild des Grauens. Erlebte Realität ist nicht gedruckte Seiten, das wir lesen, sondern die Angst, Schmerz und Leiden, die uns für den Rest unseres Lebens begleiten werden. Tragische Ereignisse wie der Krieg im ehemaligen Jugoslawien haben bei der betroffenen Bevölkerung tiefe seelische Wunden hinterlassen. All das hat das Zusammenleben der verschieden ethnokulturellen Gruppen stark erschüttert und ist meistens nicht mehr möglich. Die Kriegs- und Traumaopfer leiden häufig noch Jahren unter den schlimmen Folgen der Extrembelastungen. Typische „posttraumatische“, psychische Folgen sind das ständige schmerzliche Wiedererleben der durchlittenen Situationen, Alpträume, erhöhte Schreckhaftigkeit, Reizbarkeit sowie Auswirkungen im sozialen Bereich. Diese Symptome werden seit 1980 unter dem Begriff Posttraumatische Belastungsstörung (PTB) in den offiziellen Klassifikationsmanualen psychischer Störungen zusammengefasst (DSM-IV-R, 1994).

The history books about the wars paint a terrible picture of horror. Experienced reality is not printed pages, we read, but the fear, pain and suffering that will accompany us for the rest of our lives. Tragic events like the war in former Yugoslavia have left deep emotional scars, the affected population. All this shook the coexistence of different ethno-cultural groups is not strong and more usually possible. The war and trauma victims often suffer for years under the terrible consequences of extreme stress. Typical "post-traumatic", the constant psychological consequences are painful reliving of the artist went through situations, nightmares, increased nervousness, irritability and social impact. These symptoms are grouped together since 1980 under the term Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTB) in the official classification manual of mental disorders (DSM-IV-R, 1994).

Abstract:
El autor presenta una serie de argumentos del porque el reprocesamiento y desensibilización a través del movimiento ocular (EMDR por sus siglas en inglés: Eye Movement Desenstization and Reprocessing) se basa en un modelo trauma-disociación de trastornos mentales. El modelo de EMDR es consistente con las teorías trauma-disociación de Pierre Janet, el modelo BASK de disociación de Braun y la teoría de disociación estructural, la cual es una elaboración reciente de las ideas de Janet. Los procedimientos terapéuticos del EMDR son consistentes con los modelos de tres etapas de psicoterapia para trauma, y EMDR puede utilizarse en el tratamiento de trastornos disociativos complejos sin modificaciones significativas. El autor sugiere que la literatura con los resultados del tratamiento con EMDR puede considerarse como literatura sobre el tratamiento de la disociación inducida por trauma.

The author presents a series of arguments for why desensitization and reprocessing through eye movement (EMDR for short English: Desenstization and Reprocessing Eye Movement) is based on a trauma-dissociation model of mental disorders. The model is consistent with EMDR trauma-dissociation theory of Pierre Janet, the BASK model of dissociation of Braun and the theory of structural dissociation, which is a recent development ideas Janet. EMDR therapeutic procedures are consistent with models of three stages of psychotherapy for trauma, EMDR can be used in the treatment of complex dissociative disorders without significant modifications. The author suggests that literature with the results of EMDR therapy can be considered as literature on the treatment of trauma-induced dissociation

Language: English

Format: Other

Abstract:
This report reviews a research proposal, the major objective of which is to assess the relation between PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) and limbic, paralimbic, and prefrontal brain function as assessed with functional MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), and to determine whether an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) intervention causes those structures to return to a normal mode of functioning. The proposed study secondarily explores the effectiveness of EMDR in reducing PTSD symptomatology. While the first and second objectives of the study may have scientific merit, the mandates of other funding agencies would appear to be more appropriate for investigations of basic neuroscience processes associated with brain functioning in PTSD (e.g., NSERC or CIHR). Importantly, a critical review of the EMDR research reveals that a great deal of controversy surrounds the effectiveness of this therapy. EMDR has not been shown to be more effective than presently validated PTSD exposure-based therapies, and the eye movement component of EMDR appears to provide no therapeutic benefit. Finally, there is a lack of clarity around specific items listed in the proposed budget. Given these concerns it is not recommended that this proposal be funded at this time.

Language: English

Format: Book

Abstract:
Explores the use of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) with children and adolescents. The book demystifies the application of EMDR for children, from the first session with the parents to later sessions with children at all developmental stages. The adult protocol is modified so that it can be applied to children as young as two years old (and possibly younger). A system of classification of childhood trauma allows therapists to predict a child's response to EMDR is presented. Myriad cases illustrate the use of EMDR with various traumas. Many examples of simple traumas are presented, including automobile accidents, lightning strikes, bereavement, and specific phobias such as a fear of animals. In addition, cases illustrate success with complex traumas, where aspects of the trauma are ongoing and EMDR becomes part of several possible therapeutic interventions. EMDR is also discussed as an intervention for children who have problems that are not caused by trauma. Case illustrations show how EMDR can be used with children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), anxiety, depressive, or reactive attachment disorders as well as learning difficulties and somatoform disorders.

Language: English

Format: Conference

Abstract:
Scientific studies of EMDR have shown that it is one of the most effective tools to treat posttraumatic stress disorder. One of the lesser known properties of EMDR is that it also seems to be an effective psychotherapy method in a number of disorders that have part of their origins in dysfunctional implicit memory structures. Some of these disorders are complex trauma based disorders like dissociative disorders and some patients with symptoms of borderline disorder others are traumatized offenders, some forms of substance dependencies and depressive disorders. Many of these patients are challenging populations and some of the direct EMDR approaches may only be partly successful. In this workshop an overview of the new areas for the application of EMDR will be given and participants will hear where and how EMDR can be used in a treatment plan. Also the research status of these new approaches will be reported. If time permits cases can be discussed too.

Los estudios científicos de EMDR han comprobado que es una de las herramientas más efectivas en el tratamiento del trastorno por estrés postraumático. Una de las propiedades menos conocidas de EMDR es que también parece suponer un método de psicoterapia efectivo en varios trastornos que se originan parcialmente en estructuras disfuncionales de la memoria implícita. Algunos de estos trastornos son trastornos basados en el trauma complejo, como los trastornos disociativos y algunos casos de trastorno límite de la personalidad; también se pueden incluir agresores traumatizados, algunas formas de dependencias de sustancias y trastornos depresivos. Muchos de estos pacientes suponen poblaciones de especial dificultad y algunos de los abordajes directos con EMDR pueden tener un éxito únicamente parcial. Este taller ofrecerá una perspectiva global de las nuevas áreas de aplicación de EMDR y se les explicará a los participantes en qué casos y cómo se puede utilizar EMDR en un plan terapéutico. También se informará respecto al estado de la investigación de estos nuevos planteamientos. Si hay tiempo, también se podrán presentar algunos casos.
