SMALL WONDERS
Healing Childhood Trauma with EMDR
Joan Lovett
The Free Press, 1999
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
Readers of this book will understand the principles and some examples of applying eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy to treating trauma-related problems in children.
Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing therapy combines elements of cognitive-behavioral therapy, flooding, body-oriented therapy, psychoanalytic theory, family systems approaches, and alternately stimulating the right and left hemispheres of the brain with eye movement, tapping, or auditory tones.
Joan Lovett first explains the principles of EMDR and then describes cases concerning toilet training, an automobile accident, head lice, converging stresses, grief, somatic symptoms, test anxiety, sexual mistreatment, and sleep disorders.
