About this workshop:
This workshop will provide an overview for therapists, case managers, families, and other professionals on the essentials of assessing someone’s readiness for trauma processing through Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy. Information will be provided on cases that EMDR is likely to work very well and other situations where EMDR is less likely to be effective. The conditions for effective and safe trauma processing will be outlined with an emphasis on preventing retraumatization. The differences between EMDR resourcing and EMDR processing will be described, as well as differences in EMDR’s approach to single incident trauma and complex trauma.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify factors that contribute to readiness for trauma processing
- Explain factors that may contribute to retraumatization in trauma therapy
- Summarize EMDR’s effectiveness with single incident traumatic experiences
