When therapists complete training in the 8 phase EMDR protocol, they sometimes find it challenging to integrate EMDR therapy into their current work with challenging and complex trauma clients. By the same token, clinicians with a primary focus in EMDR are often looking for ways to deliver the EMDR protocol in more developmentally sensitive ways which feel safer to the traumatized client. The EMDR and Expressive Arts forum will be focused on sharing expressive arts ideas and techniques to maximize the healing of clients through the integration of the two approaches. Members are encouraged to share all types of expressive arts and media and their questions or application into the 8 phases of EMDR: such as 2d and 3d art, poetry, dance, writing, music and drama.
