Rapid eye movements for acute stress disorder using video conference communication

In order to effectively reduce the risk of developing long-lasting mental disorders in the aftermath of traumatic stress exposure, interventions must be offered early on. Therefore, access to expert assistance can have significant effects on prognosis. Rapid eye movements are part of the Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing procedure that gained considerable attention in previous years. The authors present a patient suffering from an acute stress disorder, treated by rapid eye movements through telepsychiatry services.
