Trauma-focused: Online somatic and EMDR therapy for California residents
The Trauma Column
A weekly trauma blog, where I write about the scientific research of trauma, C-PTSD, and trauma-focused treatments such as EMDR therapy for the public.
An Overview of EMDR Therapy and Its Research
A quantitative review or a—study of studies—of the EMDR research, showed that EMDR therapy is beneficial for both adults and children. 98 randomized controlled trials (RCTs), the gold standard design of studies, published before 2021, were reviewed. The results suggest that EMDR therapy and cognitive processing therapy are the most effective at diminishing trauma and PTSD symptoms over the short and long term (for at least six months).
