EMDR, Dissociation, and Beyond

EMDR, Dissociation, and Beyond offers a comprehensive integration of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy with the complexities of dissociative disorders. This text bridges two fields often treated separately, providing a framework for understanding and addressing pathological dissociation within EMDR practice. It invites therapists to deepen their knowledge, reconsider existing protocols, and explore new strategies for persistent treatment challenges.

The book expands possibilities for case conceptualization by drawing on extensive literature and the authors' combined decades of experience in trauma treatment. It presents a dissociation-attuned approach to EMDR therapy, offering insights into history taking, symptom evaluation, and the ethical application of treatment for complex trauma and dissociative symptoms. This resource serves as a guide for clinicians seeking to enhance their ability to navigate the nuances of dissociative systems effectively.
