EMDR Therapy for Depression: Implications for Mental Health

April 5, 2022

Share this

Depression is one of the most common mental health issues. Although EMDR therapy is most widely known as a PTSD trauma treatment, using EMDR therapy to treat people struggling with depression is an accepted practice. Research supports EMDR as an effective treatment for depression as well, and this area continues to be studied as you can see in the resources listed below. Depression can make a person feel hopeless, stuck, and overwhelmed. Traumatic and stressful life events often contribute to or occur alongside depressive symptoms such as negative thoughts, depressed mood, empty or sad feelings, low sense of self-worth, and difficulty finding pleasure in life. EMDR therapy can provide relief for depressive symptoms, help reframe negative beliefs, resolve unprocessed trauma and adverse experiences, improve energy and mood, and create a more positive understanding of the self.

In our latest Go With That issue, EMDR and depression experts Arne Hofmann, M.D. and Maria Lehnung, Ph.D. wrote “EMDR Therapy in the Treatment of Depression.” They outline the existing research on EMDR and depression and outline the six steps of the EMDR and Depression DeprEnd Protocol.

“Looking from the angle of the adaptive information processing (AIP) model of EMDR therapy, the memory networks that trigger depressive episodes may not fulfill all criteria for the definition of “traumatic memories” (post-traumatic stress disorder PTSD Criterion A). However, they completely fit into Dr. Francine Shapiro’s description of dysfunctionally stored memories [or] … pathogenic memories (Hase et al, 2017). Pathogenic memories are biologically active and the cause of symptoms of diseases. [Pathogenic memories, or]… stressful life events, which often happen shortly before the onset of a depressive episode, are one of the common features that can be seen in many depressive patients. So identifying and processing these memories that we labeled episode triggers became one of the cornerstones of our EMDR DeprEnd treatment protocol.”
