Description

Description:

Research has clearly demonstrated that certain kinds of life experiences lay the foundation for a wide range of mental and physical problems. Clinical and neurobiological research indicates that EMDR therapy directly addresses the physiological basis of clinical symptoms and dysfunction. Group exercises, case description and treatment videos will help participants examine the implications of this research and its application to clinical practice. Clinical examples will address individual, family and societal issues.

Educational Objectives:

  1. Describe the kinds of life experiences that lay the foundation for clinical dysfunction.
  2. Explain the application of EMDR therapy to a wide range of clinical complaints.
  3. Describe the principles and techniques used in EMDR therapy to identify the source of clinical symptoms.
