Abstract:
Presenter: Filiz Kaya
The present study is carried out within a psychological
counseling project which is governed by Istanbul metroplitan Municipality. The study was designed to assess the effects
of Early EMDR Intervention (EEI) on the victims of a terrorist
bombing in Gungoren, Istanbul. Subjects were the victims of
a terrorist bombing in Gungoren, Istanbul. The participants
were selected from a pool of children and adults, who lived in
Gungoren and scored high on the Turkish version of 'Impact of
Event Scale' (IES) and PTSD Symptom Checklist. The subjects
were contacted 2 days after the bomb attack so that we were
able to measure the event impact right after the traumatic experience,
which will help us to demonstrate how EMDR affects
the impact of the event more accurately.
Eye Movement Desensitization (EMD) as an EEI technique was
used to treat the child participants, whereas Recent Traumatic
Event Protocol (R-TEP) which incorporates the EMD and Recent
Event (RE) protocols, was received by the adult participants
The therapists (EMDR certified therapists, who were receiving
supervision) met with the participants weekly to work only on
the trauma of the bombing and participants completed impact
of Event Scale prior to each session. The number of the sessions was restricted to the completion of EMD and R-TEP. The study
is completed with a three month follow-up. Analyses of the
data collected from the participants demonstrates the level of
effectiveness of EMDR in children and adults, in prevention of
PTSD and the use of EMDR as a crises intervention tool.

Abstract:
The recent traumatic episode protocol (R-TEP) is an adaptation of the eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR) standard protocol to the acute phases following trauma. In this article, the R-TEP structure and procedures were analyzed from a developmental/integrative perspective. It is proposed that the therapist's developmental understanding and attunement can enhance the therapeutic dyad and can promote flexible decision making while using the R-TEP procedures. One case illustration of a recent trauma intervention demonstrates the advantage of developmental attunement in using the R-TEP. This perspective enables the therapist to pace the various styles of processing as they relate to the different stages of the memory consolidation process.

Abstract:
This article examines existing early EMDR intervention (EEI) procedures, presents a conceptual model, and proposes a new comprehensive protocol: the Recent-Traumatic Episode protocol (R-TEP). A review of research and important professional issues regarding application and parameters are presented. The commonly used EEI protocols and procedures are summarized, with the inclusion of descriptive case examples from the Lebanon war and a review of related research. Then a theoretical model is presented in which traumatic information processing is conceptualized as expanding from a narrow focus on the sensory image (perceptual level) to a wider focus on the event/episode (experiential level) and finally to a broad focus on the theme/identity (meaning level). The relationship of this model to the Recent-Traumatic Episode protocol is articulated and case examples are presented. Theoretical speculations are discussed relating to attention regulation and the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model. Further research is encouraged. [Author Abstract]

Abstract:
The Recent-Traumatic Episode Protocol (R-TEP) takes the wisdom of the Standard EMDR
Protocol (Shapiro, 1995, 2001) and applies it in adapted form for recent events to provide a
comprehensive approach to Early EMDR Intervention (EEI). The R-TEP thus presents an
integrative protocol for EEI, which incorporates and extends existing procedures. It is a protocol
that utilises both the EMD and EMDR protocols together with some elements of the Recent
Event protocol within a newly conceived extended time perspective, termed here the
"Traumatic Episode". The Traumatic Episode (or T-Episode) comprises multiple targets of
disturbing images/ events/ other experiences, from the original incident until today, including
disturbing thoughts about the future, which need to be processed. [Excerpt]

Abstract:
The question of how early to intervene with EMDR in the face of natural and manmade disasters has been an important part of the dialogue of those working in this field. Early EMDR intervention, before consolidation of the memory has taken place, may influence adaptive integration (e.g., process sticking points), promote positive coping (especially if this is not occurring spontaneously), and contribute to the development of resilience. Informed by the work of Francine Shapiro, Roger Solomon, and all of the friends and colleagues in the field who have contributed to the evolution of their thinking and practice and following clinical and empirical experience with early EMDR intervention (EEI) in the wake of the 2006 Lebanon war, the authors have observed that the existing EEI protocols appear to focus on certain aspects or parts of the traumatic episode along an approximate time line continuum following a trauma, in accordance with the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV) (APA, 2000). They concluded that the unfinished processing of recent traumatic events may require a broader focus than existing EEI protocols provided. They propose a new protocol called the Recent- Traumatic Episode Protocol (R-TEP), which incorporates and extends the existing EEI protocols by providing a new comprehensive, integrative protocol. The R-TEP thus bridges the gaps left by previous protocols and facilitates a transition from the EMD and RE protocols to the Standard EMDR Protocol. The R-TEP takes the wisdom of the Standard EMDR Protocol (Shapiro, 1995, 2001), and applies it in adapted form for recent events to provide a comprehensive approach to Early EMDR Intervention. After describing the main issues in early EMDR intervention, the authors present the Recent-Traumatic Episode Protocol and the Episode Narrative and Initial Goodle Search Script. The EMD Protocol for R-TEP Script adapted from the EMD Protocol by Shapiro (1995) is also presented, as is the Standard EMDR Protocol Script (Adapted from the Standard EMDR Protocol for R-TEP, Shapiro, 2001).

Abstract:
Early EMDR Intervention (EEI), while trauma memories are still consolidating, is perceived as a window of opportunity for adaptive processing of trauma memories. It may be used not only to treat acute distress but also to prevent complications by checking for sub-clinical sticking points which can obstruct the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) and don’t necessarily show up on the DSM radar, thereby reducing the sensitization and accumulation of trauma memories.

Abstract:
Main Features of the R-TEP
Target selection:
1) Episode wide focus = period from the traumatic event to the present
2) Use of "Google Search" (G-Search) metaphor to identify multiple targets within the episode (sensory images/ events/ other experiences)
Containment (safety):
1) 8 Phase structure parallel to Standard Protocol
2) Episode Narrative with DAS for grounding
3) Option of using distancing metaphor of TV screen
4) Option of regulation of associations by limiting associations to the image/event/ episode

Abstract:
This article evaluates and illustrates the application of the recent-traumatic episode protocol (R-TEP) with three diverse clients: a child with chronic illness, a woman with a significant loss, and an adolescent who self-harmed. The R-TEP is an adaptation of the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) protocol for early EMDR intervention. Sessions are presented in detail to highlight the shifts in information processing that occur during treatment. Observed markers used to analyze the flow of processing are identified, which include distancing from the trauma; reduction in negative affect or change in reported emotions; accessing more adaptive information; changes in the Subjective Units of Disturbance scale; and the Validity of Cognition scale and Impact of Event Scale--Revised indicating shifts in perception of the traumatic memory. Pre-post R-TEP treatment gains were noted for all clients, with changes in behavior and functioning. Theoretical underpinnings of the R-TEP are discussed with respect to the reported observations. The specific contribution of the protocol is highlighted, considering its procedural components and related plausible mechanisms of change.

femme ayant subi une perte importante et un adolescent qui s’automutilait. Le R-TEP est une adaptation
du protocole EMDR pour l’intervention EMDR précoce. Les séances sont présentées de manière détaillée
afin de souligner les changements qui se produisent au niveau du traitement de l’information au cours
de la thérapie. Des marqueurs observés identifiés ont permis d’analyser le déroulement du traitement,
incluant la distanciation vis-à-vis du trauma ; la diminution des affects négatifs ou le changement des
émotions rapportées ; l’accès à des informations plus adaptatives ; des changements au niveau de
l’échelle des unités subjectives de perturbation (SUDS : Subjective Units of Disturbance scale) ; l’échelle
de validité

les clients ont montré des gains thérapeutiques pré/post du R-TEP, avec des changements au niveau
du comportement et du fonctionnement. Les soubassements du R-TEP sont envisagés à la lumière des
observations rapportées. La contribution spécifique du protocole est soulignée en considération de ses
composants procéduraux et des mécanismes de changement associés plausibles.
