EMDR and the Relational Imperative by Mark Dworkin

EMDR and the Relational Imperative by Mark Dworkin

In this groundbreaking work, Mark Dworkin, an EMDR teacher, facilitator, and long-time practitioner, explores the subtle nuances of the therapeutic relationship and the vital role it plays in using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) with traumatized clients. Showing how relational issues play a key role in each phase of EMDR treatment, the author provides tools for the therapist to more efficiently apply this method in the treatment of trauma victims and form a stronger and healthier relationship with the patient. A standard reference for all practitioners working to heal the wounds of trauma, this book will be an essential resource for the effective application of EMDR.

'This book provides a practical, clinically rich framework that will enhance the beginning and experienced clinician’s ability to utilize EMDRA must-read for all EMDR clinician’s.' - Roger M. Solomon, Senior Faculty, EMDR Institute, USA

In the book, "EMDR AND THE RELATIONAL IMPERATIVE" Mark Dworkin teaches us valuable tools, such as the relational interweave, to manage these transferential blocks and self regulating skills for EMDR clinicians to use when countertransference is awakened.

The author interweaves an excellent revision of EMDR methodology - phase by phase- with the relational issues which contribute to ascertain good results, and if unhindered, are responsible for many bad results.

Many South American EMDR practitioners coming from psychoanalysis will find in this book familiar terms, being addressed though from an EMDR perspective, making it a must for those colleagues seeking to integrate different perspectives of the same phenomenon: the enormous value of the therapeutic relation.

Mark Dworkin’s thorough knowledge, profoundly humane stance and acute clinical expertise are evident throughout this book.
