Can EMDR treat transgenerational transmitted trauma?
Description
In certain cases, we can be confronted to a need for retreatment of targets that the person in front of us cannot have experienced by herself: second war events, being in a prison or concentration camp…
But the person in therapy show real disorders, including dissociation which seems related to those targets.
How could be treat such transgenerational trauma with EMDR? With which results? Which hypotheses could we formulate out of this work? Which are the implications on the persons’ family environment?
Out of three clinical cases, I propose to share my experience and think together on transgenerational trauma transmission and its treatment, by using the concept of mirror neurons.
