Many behavioural, somatic and emotional symptoms in children are manifestations of traumatic and adverse experiences that are held in the child’s biology. EMDR therapy, its eight phases and procedural steps provide the structure for clinicians to work with the legacy left by trauma in the embodied mind of the child.
This recording will address how EMDR therapy can be organized to meet the developmental demands of children as well as inner structures formed in response to adversity and trauma. We will address the differences in the use of EMDR therapy with complex vs single incident trauma in children. What elements may need to be incorporated within a comprehensive EMDR treatment with children with histories of developmental and chronic trauma in comparison to the work with children with simple traumatic stress will be covered.
In addition, this seminar will offer a larger and a more comprehensive view of trauma as a generational story that many children affected by adversity carry within. Individual, in contrast to systemic EMDR therapy will be discussed. Clinicians attending this presentation will be exposed to the many shades and intricacies of using EMDR therapy and in addition, what makes it a powerful form of treatment for children.
