Letters to the editor: re - EMDR

This section of the newsletter includes letters to the editor regarding eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). Dr. John N. Marquis states that EMDR has more controlled studies than any other treatment of PTSD including drugs. He also asserts that EMDR has long met the standards for probably efficacious treatments and at this point should qualify for the list of empirically validated treatments with publication of currently completed studies. In response, Dr. Miller says he hopes the efficacy debate regarding EMDR does not detract from his main point, that practice and training in clinical psychology often rely upon treatment methods without proven effectiveness.
