Yes, my Child Trauma web site is at <http://www.childtrauma.com>.

Regarding Claude Chemtob's study, it has been presented at ISTSS previously. Here is a synopsis and the current citation:

Chemtob et al reported very positive results in using EMDR with 32 children and adolescents traumatized by Hurricane Iniki in Kauai, who did not respond to a generally effective previous treatment program. The design featured a delay control group, independent assessment with measures, and five therapists with varying levels of EMDR training and experience. The treatment protocol was clearly specified, and a number of efforts were made to ensure treatment fidelity. The participants averaged a 58% reduction on the primary trauma measure following 3 sessions, with results holding several months later.
