A review of the basic EMDR model, mechanisms and procedures

The workshop will consist of a review of the 8-phases of standard EMDR procedures, the Adaptive Information Processing Model, and the supposed mechanisms of EMDR re-processing, “transmutation” and “reconsolidation” of memory. A live demonstration of “extended resourcing” will be included. Various methods for resolving blocks will be described. Live and post-event eMail-based Q & A. will be available. The workshop is intended for clinicians who trained some time ago and wish to refresh their understanding to avoid “model drift” and for those who have trained in but have not used EMDR procedures for some time.
