Treatment of affect phobias using EMDR

Participants will be able to 1) describe and use Tomkin's Three System Model of Emotion; 2) differentiate between the regressive/hysterical and obsessive/compulsive character defensive styles and modify treatment plans accordingly; 3) describe and apply the concept of the Two Triangles; 4) distinguish the functions of affect in order to determine if it is being used adaptively or maladaptively; and 5) integrate the knowledge gained with EMDR to help clients move through their defenses and become desensitized to their affect phobia.
