Written as a companion to Francine Shapiro’s EMDR texts, this fourth edition of An EMDR Therapy Primer is one of the most comprehensive, in-depth, and up-to-date presentations of EMDR therapy thus far. This text is written for newly trained clinicians to easily step from practicum to practice and for skilled EMDR clinicians to provide them with a refresher of EMDR therapy concepts, phases, and scripts. Included in this text are clinical examples, scripts, derailment possibilities, case histories, dialogues, strategies and techniques, diagrams, tables, figures, definitions, and illustrations that accurately and concisely illuminate and expand on the principles, protocols, and procedures set forth for EMDR therapy during Shapiro’s professional lifetime. This book adheres to Shapiro’s standard EMDR therapy protocol as it has proven its healing efficacy and efficiency from year to year, from client to client.
