Description
Book SynopsisIn this book, the authors describe their work and the significant controversy that attended its rise due to EMDR's challenging of traditional cognitive behavioral approaches and mechanisms of change.
Trade ReviewThis delightfully concise book offers a highly readable and scholarly overview of the history, theory, cultural adaptations, and standard procedures for all eight phases of the EMDR approach to psychotherapy. Russell and Shapiro touch on controversies involving skeptics, the overly zealous, and proprietary professional associations with careful discussions of what the research illuminates and still needs to examine, along with practical suggestions for the future. -- Andrew M. Leeds, PhD, Director of Training, Sonoma Psychotherapy Training Institute, Santa Rosa, CA
