Course Overview

Body-Focused Techniques in Every Phase of EMDR Therapy

As EMDR therapists, we can integrate techniques that interrupt the implicit responses to trauma, bringing these into the explicit. This presentation demonstrates body-focused techniques used with one client through the eight phases of EMDR therapy.

Martha Norton grounds the work in theoretical perspectives on the body from Bessel van der Kolk, Dan Siegel and Francine Shapiro, and in the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model. She then shows how sensory, body-focused techniques drawn from Sensorimotor Psychotherapy and related approaches, including tracking, guided mindfulness, somatic resourcing and affect tolerance, work within each phase, from history taking through reevaluation, using video from a single client case. The course includes brief experiential practice and closes with a body scan resource for Phase 7 Closure.

What You Will Learn

By the End of This Training, You Will Be Able To:

  1. Identify 3 theoretical perspectives on the importance of focusing on the body.
  2. Discuss the addition of sensory, body focused techniques to working with traumatized clients to EMDR therapy.
