Two Questions Regards EMDR
JLB · 07/17/01 at 2:11 ET
I have two questions regarding EMDR as relates to symptoms that my mother has experienced after an EMDR treatment. I truly mean no disrespect in asking these questions, but I haven't been able to find any answers elsewhere, so here goes... Is there a list anywhere that names therapists, clinicians, psychologists, etc. who ARE NOT authorized EMDR providers? Who perhaps in the past were providers, but for some reason, relating to the way that they provided it, were disbarred or something to that effect? Second, are there ANY know side effects to EMDR relating to disturbed sleep patterns, i.e. excessive and vivid dreaming, not of previous traumatic event, but a normal dream just amplified and magnified, causing a person to feel that their brain has not rested during a normal night of sleep, negative behavioral changes causing person to "not feel like themself anymore", headaches or complaints of "brain fog", extreme problems in learning complicated new ideas or procedures (for work, school, etc.), extreme adverse reactions to medications, often causing effect opposite of desired, an example being a sedative cause extreme alertness and nervousness. I truly thank anyone for any information that they might have as regards either question above.
