Psychotherapy relationships that work: Evidence-based practices in EMDR

Decades of clinical experience and controlled research consistently demonstrate that the therapy relationship accounts for as much psychotherapy success as the treatment method itself. This plenary address will present evidence-based practices on: (1) creating a facilitative therapeutic relationship; and (2) tailoring that relationship to the individual patient in ways that improve treatment outcome. These practices are then applied specifically to the different phases of EMDR. The talk synthesizes three of the most crucial developments in contemporary mental health: evidence-based practice, the therapeutic relationship, and EMDR.
