Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing: Ethical considerations of EMDR marketing, training, and research

Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) has been both popularized and criticized in recent literature. Although a number of investigators continue to examine the efficacy of EMDR, few articles have critically evaluated the training practices and requirements for EMDR certification. This editorial is a qualitative and informal look into some of the training practices and requirements of EMDR level I training. The marketing of EMDR is discussed to identify ethical concerns relevant to EMDR's promotion. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2008 APA, all rights reserved)
