Neuro EMDR: Applying EMDR therapy with clients who have impaired cognitive abilities
Can EMDR be effective with adults who have experienced a brain injury or are experiencing other cognitive difficulties?
Article Abstract
“EMDR therapy has been shown to be highly effective and time efficient in addressing trauma memories in both adults and children. However, there are questions about how EMDR can be effective with adults who have experienced a brain injury or are experiencing other cognitive difficulties. This article summarises some of the recent research within the area and proposes adaptations to the standard protocol that can be made to make best use of EMDR therapy in this population. ”
