Let's Talk EMDR
Technical Innovations in Delivering EMDR Therapy
The global COVID-19 pandemic forced us to find new ways to do things. Providing therapy was no different. Because of this, EMDRIA created Online EMDR Therapy Resources for its members. As the world emerged from lockdown, many EMDR therapists continued to see clients virtually. Are there potential tools that can help facilitate therapy sessions? Yes, says Tjeu Theunissen, a Dutch Ph.D. candidate, clinical psychologist, and EMDR therapist. He founded two E-health start-ups that focused on using innovative technology to make EMDR more efficient and effective. He is head of Research and Development at Dutch startup Moovd and provides online EMDR therapy from his practice in India. In his Ph.D., he researched the effectiveness of the developed EMDR applications and their working mechanisms. In this episode, Theunissen will discuss (new) technical innovations in EMDR and their efficacy and effectiveness in clinical practice. He will talk about other scientific research toward digital EMDR tools. Additional topics that will be discussed are practical and ethical considerations of using digital tools in EMDR and other trauma therapies.
