Utilisation d’EMDR dans le traitement du trouble d’anxiété généralisée Using EMDR to treat generalized anxiety disorder

Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by excessive and difficult to control worry which is accompanied by symptoms of anxiety. This presentation will show how to use EMDR to treat this anxious disorder. Following a review of GAD and its clinical features, its etiological model and cognitive-behavioral model, participants will be shown how to integrate these notions within an AIP model framework. Treatment planning, target selection and EMDR reprocessing for this specific disorder will be presented. A final part will raise certain issues when working with Axis 1 and Axis 2 co-morbid disorders.
