The Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing International Association (EMDRIA) is proud to introduce this first issue of the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research. We think that you will be pleased with this quarterly, peer-reviewed publication devoted to integrative, state-of-the-art papers about EMDR. It is a broadly conceived interdisciplinary journal that stimulates and communicates research and theory about EMDR, and their application to clinical practice.
