Tidbits

Description

It has been a part of Level I training for several years to teach a signal for clients to use if they want the therapist to stop the eye movements. I have a signal to continue the eye movements at the same time. This is a usual "come on" charade signal--palm up with fingers moving toward the client. It gives clients an even greater sense of control, and proves useful when they have not finished a scene they are picturing, or if they feel the need of continuing to process an abreaction.
