COURSE OBJECTIVES

Francine Shapiro used to say that “EMDR is not a cookie-cutter therapy”, meaning that although we are fortunate to have the basic protocol and 8 steps of therapy as a guide, each patient has a unique internal world that requires a tailored approach and an intersubjective stance that produces exactly the right EMDR therapy for them. Attachment issues and trauma lie at the heart of our needs, desires and being, from “cradle to grave” (Bowlby, 1969). As such, attachment guides, as AIP postulates, our sensory experiences, thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations. Using attachment theory, language, techniques and resources throughout the 8 steps of EMDR therapy can greatly facilitate healing, in a safe and gentle way.

Apart from the after-effects of sexual abuse, the subject of sexuality, both from the point of view of healthy sexuality and from that of specific sexual dysfunctions, is generally less studied and clinically presented within the international EMDR community. The current workshop aims to focus on the theme of sexuality, expanding participants' connection and knowledge with the integration of EMDR psychotherapy with sexuality-related themes, difficulties and dysfunctions. Participants will learn ways to help patients connect with and enhance their own sexuality, bodies and sexual preferences for a more adaptive and satisfying sex life. In addition, the workshop will provide guidelines for working with specific sexual problems and dysfunctions within the framework of EMDR psychotherapy, with relevant clinical examples and areas of focus, such as treatment planning. Specific exercises and body techniques will be discussed, as well as creative and necessary adaptations for reprocessing memories, triggers and relevant future patterns. Experiential exercises, clinical case examples and client videos will enhance the work presented.
