Eye Movement Desensitization/Reprocessing: Its Use in Resolving the Trauma Caused by the Loss of a War Buddy
Abstract
A case of refractory PTSD was treated with Eye Movement Desensitization/Reprocessing (EMDR). Within one 60-minute session there was a dramatic resolution of two traumatic memories that persisted at nine-month follow-up. Long-standing personality factors did not appear to change during this single-session intervention. This report supports the need for good controlled clinical studies on EMDR.
