Emdr : A Closer Look - Video and Manual Video

Description
How does EMDR compare to other therapies for trauma?
What is the role of the eye movements? What does the research indicate about EMDR's efficacy?
Addressing these key questions and more, this video provides a view of EMDR, probing both its widespread popularity and its controversial nature.
Larry Beutler serves as commentator in a presentation that features Francine Shapiro, EMDR's originator, as well as other authorities in the field, including Terence M.
Keane, Kim Mueser, and Bessel van der Kolk. Bringing the therapy to life are simulated client sessions in which Dr Shapiro demonstrates the eight-step EMDR protocol, including the much-talked-about eye movements.
In an overview of trauma, Dr Shapiro describes how persistent, profound and deeply disturbing the effects of trauma can be.
Exposure to extreme trauma can result in post-traumatic stress disorder symptoms such as nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive thoughts, phobias and anxiety.
Shapiro explains how EMDR has been shown to benefit victims of trauma by helping them reprocess disturbing thoughts and memories. Exploring a range of issues surrounding EMDR, Beutler, van der Kolk, Keane, Mueser and others present their own perspectives and report on the late-1990s research.
Enhancing the video's usefulness is an accompanying manual by Jon Allen and associates that reviews the clinical protocol and available data and features a patient education handout.
