Re:dnms and dissociation

I was sort of wondering the same....I've been reading about it because I see so many dissociative clients or clients who I otherwise do not feel are ready or able to tolerate emdr, and was hoping to use this as an alternative approach w/ these clients, providing they are at least relatively stable in their coping, able to establish trust & rapport, etc....

I know there is still need for caution and ensuring stability, etc... - have kind of been thinking I would approach it by starting to just install the resources and see how that is tolerated, etc... before going any further. Of course sometimes those positive things are connected awfully closely w/ the negative, so I know there is always a chance of activating disturbing material....but then the same is true w/ doing talk therapy at times.
