• EMDR

The research on the use of Intensive EMDR Therapy is also quite positive:

  • “Intensive application of trauma-focused therapy seems to be well tolerated in patients with PTSD, enabling faster symptom reduction with similar, or even better, results, while reducing the risk that patients drop out prematurely.” (European Journal of Psychotraumatology, 2018).
  • “Intensive EMDR treatment is feasible and is indicative of reliable improvement in PTSD symptoms in a very short time frame.” (European Journal of Psychotraumatology, 2018).  
  • ​“The economy is compelling: even compared to other trauma therapy, the intensive format may decrease treatment time, because of time not spent on a) checking in at the beginning of each session, b) addressing current crises and concerns, c) focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that the client won’t need after trauma healing, or d) assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.” (Trauma Institute & Child Trauma Institute, 2015).
