I am happy to initiate this dialogue with Francine Shapiro, the originator and developer of EMDR (for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). In a few short years, this intervention method has gained wide acceptance among therapists as a treatment for the after-effects of trauma and considerable research has been published which supports its effectiveness.
Please follow these links to find Dr. Shapiro's biosketch and background information about EMDR.
