The recent-traumatic episode protocol (R-TEP): A comprehensive approach for early EMDR intervention (EEI) Das recent-traumatic episode protocol (R-TEP): Ein umfassender ansatz für den einsatz von EMDR als frühe intervention

Early EMDR Intervention (EEI), while trauma memories are still consolidating, is perceived as a window of opportunity for adaptive processing of trauma memories. It may be used not only to treat acute distress but also to prevent complications by checking for sub-clinical sticking points which can obstruct the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) and don’t necessarily show up on the DSM radar, thereby reducing the sensitization and accumulation of trauma memories.

Learning objectives: As part of a comprehensive approach to EEI, this workshop presents the Recent Traumatic Episode Protocol (R-TEP) which is an integrative protocol that incorporates and extends existing protocols together with additional measures for containment and safety. The R-TEP will be taught with video case illustrations, live demonstration and a practicum.
