EMDR directly addresses the physiologically stored memory networks that underlie both psychological problems and mental health.

The Integration of EMDR with family therapy practices will also be discussed.
Educational Objectives:
- To describe the types of cases amenable to EMDR treatment.
- To describe the kinds of cognitive, emotional and somatic changes attainable with EMDR.
