Workshop Description

​

Research has shown that EMDR may be utilized to assist with recovery from substance use and behavioral addictions. The challenges with this population can be daunting, and for many years EMDR therapists were encouraged to wait to do any trauma work until the client had months of recovery. This perspective has been found to be untenable in that the unprocessed material often fuels relapse, demonstrating the need for concurrent treatment of addiction and trauma. In this workshop, we will identify the origins of addiction from the AIP perspective and challenges specific to substance use and behavioral addictions; learn and practice creating a treatment plan from the AIP perspective for clients with substance use and behavioral addictions; identify several resourcing options to prepare clients for reprocessing, specifically addressing alexithymia, affect phobia, and difficulty with affect regulation; identify three protocols to use with substance use and/or behavioral addictions; and determine when to use a specific protocol with your clients.

​

Learning Objectives 

​

Participants will be able to: 

  • Identify the origins of substance use and behavioral addictions from the AIP perspective and challenges
    specific to addiction clients.

  • Describe AIP-based treatment planning from addiction as the presenting problem.

  • Identify at least two (2) unique resourcing options to prepare clients for reprocessing.

  • Explain the advantages of using addiction focused EMDR therapy protocols based on research.

  • Utilize three (3) addiction focused EMDR therapy protocols.

  • Describe at least two (2) key components in determining which specific protocol to use.
