Emdr and panic disorders. From integrated theories to the model of intervention in clinical practice

di Elisa Faretta (Autore)

Edra, 2022

Among the anxiety disorders, Panic Disorder (PD) is one of the most common forms of psychological distress in contemporary societies, often present in comorbidities with depressive disorders or addictions. It is extremely debilitating, and frequently associated with high levels of social, occupational, and physical disability. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is the first choice to treat traumatic or stress related disorders, and for several years has also been demonstrably effective in PD. This book is a complete guide to the use of EMDR psychotherapy in PD treatment. In this book, Elisa Faretta explores the etiology of PD, in light of the most recent neuropsychological theories - including Porges' Polyvagal Theory, Panksepp's Affective Neuroscience and Bowlby's Theory of Attachment - and brings together the results of the latest research on the treatment of this disorder with EMDR. The practical application of the protocol in eight steps is accompanied by the assessment tools and the scripts of the management and stabilization techniques with the description of a clinical case included for added clarity. For psychologists and psychotherapists interested in the specificity of this innovative and in-depth treatment the book also contains a variation of the individual EMDR standard protocol, adapted for a group psychotherapy context.
