ASDとトラウマ : ASD青年へのEMDR ASD and trauma: EMDR to ASD youth
Description
本稿では、自閉スペクトラム症(ASD)を持つ青年に対するEMDR(眼球運動による脱感作と再処理法)の臨床的応用について検討している。ASDの特性として、感情の言語化や対人関係の困難があるため、トラウマ体験が未処理のまま蓄積されやすく、二次的な精神症状を引き起こすことがある。著者らは、EMDRの非言語的・身体感覚的アプローチがASD青年に適応しやすく、トラウマ記憶の再処理を通じて情動の安定化と自己感覚の回復が促される可能性を示している。症例を通じて、ASDとトラウマの複雑な関係性に対するEMDRの有効性が示唆されている。
This article explores the clinical application of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Due to ASD traits—such as difficulty verbalizing emotions and challenges in interpersonal relationships—traumatic experiences often remain unprocessed, leading to secondary psychological symptoms. The authors suggest that EMDR’s nonverbal and somatosensory approach is well-suited for ASD youth, facilitating emotional stabilization and restoration of self-awareness through trauma reprocessing. Case examples illustrate EMDR’s potential effectiveness in addressing the complex interplay between ASD and trauma.
