Re:New EMDR meta-analysis in JCCP

I've never posted to this discussion before but after reading the last several posts I wanted to"speak up." I am an EMDR clinician, which some would say makes me biased on the subject, but I remember very cleary the 10+ years when I wasn't trained in EMDR and practiced "psychodynamic psychotherapy." Certainly I helped many clients back then, but have seen better and quicker results with EMDR. That is the only reason I and many of my colleagues continue to use it. More and more people call me and ask for it because they know of someone who was helped by it.

Some research, like the above mentioned article, doesn't support EMDR, but there is much more that does support it. Getting trained and certified in EMDR and using it in one's practice will demonstrate more than research about effectiveness, as would becoming a client with a certified EMDR clinician. If you're suffering don't deny yourself the chance to feel better because of what a few researchers found.
