## Description

The authoritative presentation of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, this groundbreaking book--now revised and expanded--has been translated into multiple languages. Originally developed for treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), this evidence-based approach is now also used to treat adults and children with complex trauma, anxiety disorders, depression, addictive behavior problems, and other clinical problems. EMDR originator Francine Shapiro reviews the therapy's theoretical and empirical underpinnings, details the eight phases of treatment, and provides training materials and resources. The book includes vivid vignettes, transcripts, and reproducible forms, which can also be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8 1/2" x 11" size. New to This Edition Over 15 years of important advances in therapy and research, including findings from clinical and neurophysiological studies. New and revised protocols and procedures. Discusses additional applications, including the treatment of complex trauma, addictions, pain, depression, and moral injury, as well as post-disaster response. Appendices with session transcripts, clinical aids, and tools for assessing treatment fidelity and outcomes. EMDR therapy is recognized as a best practice for the treatment of PTSD by the U.S. Departments of Veterans Affairs and Defense, the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies, the World Health Organization, the U.K. National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), the Australian National Health and Medical Research Council, the Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany, and other health care associations/institutes around the world.

Review: A cornerstone resource for EMDR clinicians - Shapiro’s EMDR materials stand out as a foundational guide that balances scientific rigor with clinical practicality. The clarity of presentation demystifies complex protocols, making it easier to implement EMDR with precision and confidence. It’s the kind of resource that supports both novice and seasoned therapists by reinforcing best practices and offering insightful nuances. What I appreciate most is how it gently guides you through each phase. This is not just a training tool but a trusted companion that elevates your clinical work and sharpens your therapeutic intuition. Five stars for a resource that truly advances EMDR practice with professionalism and depth.
Review: A significant presentation of the state of the art - The third edition has been some time in coming - since the second in 2001, we've seen ongoing research into EMDR as a psychotherapy and fascinating studies of the eye movements Shapiro posited as facilitating a neurological processing of unresolved experiences, more international and national agencies evaluating that research and determining EMDR is an effective therapy in the treatment of psychological trauma, and the continuous exploration of EMDR's with other conditions. Yet the fundamental principles, protocols and procedures remain largely unchanged - given EMDR's success before the presentation of the Second Edition, there is no surprise in this. What the Third Edition brings is more: more clarity, more experience, more research, more applications, and, the continuous thread from the beginning, more compassion. Clinicians familiar with the earlier editions will find that "more" amplifying and clarifying their use of EMDR and providing a solid, well established center to their work. Shapiro's continuous insistence on empiricism, a position she still maintains, resulted in stability through the sometimes rough rapids of a paradigm shift in psychotherapy and this volume is the best expression of that shift. For clinicians just coming across EMDR and wondering what this is all about, maintain a healthy skepticism, read the book and get trained in the methodology, and try it with your clients. For these clinicians, "Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing" (3rd. ed.) maintains what was best in the first two editions - an invitation to learn this powerful therapy, one that makes use of their clients' own ability to heal.
