Helpful Strategies in the Reprocessing Phases of EMDR Therapy with Clients with Complex Trauma with Tom Zimmerman

Helpful Strategies in the Reprocessing Phases of EMDR Therapy with Complex Clients

When working effectively with clients with complex trauma inside EMDR therapy, we need a range of sensible alternative approaches when standard protocol doesn’t result in our desired outcomes.  These modifications are primarily focused on specialized resources for attachment wounding, sensible target selection, and modifications to help promote memory content coming into awareness in more digestible pieces.

In this webinar, we will discuss

????️ Selecting sensible targets at the intersection of productive and tolerable
????️ What to do when “letting things go where they go” goes straight off a cliff
????️ When to encourage related memories to come in (and when not)
????️ Attachment figure resources as an expedited form of parts work
????️ Where clients with complex trauma tend to get stuck (and how to interweave)
????️ How to modulate the distress in Phase Four and why too much distress is a problem
????️ Elegant strategies to find individual memories when childhood trauma was daily
