Summary: Caution clinicians, not a manual!
Comment: Please note that this appears to generally be a review of some case histories in which EMDR was helpful. I was hoping to learn some techniques for practical application. It stresses in the disclaimer in the book that it is not a manual and no one should try to apply the techniques without first completing the training package, available at significant expense at the institute. In fact, it stated that attempting to apply them without first going through the training may be dangerous or harmful. If you are looking for only background information on the intervention or are already trained this may be an appropriate resource.

Summary: Enjoyable and Worthwhile Read
Comment: This book sat on my shelf for a long time before I took a proper look at it. I was put off by the fact that it didn't seem to explain the EMDR protocols. However, once I started reading it I couldn't put it down. It's a rare quality to find a therapy book so engaging. It does provide many transcripts and informal examples of the interventions used in EMDR, which I actually found more useful than the very schematic protocol outlines which I've read elsewhere.
I haven't used EMDR long enough in my own practice to report accurately on its effectiveness, but what experience I have had so far is very positive.
I would recommend this book to anyone, professional or lay person, interested in EMDR.

Summary: Stories of Healing
Comment: This book documents the healing journeys of numerous trauma survivors. Written for the general public, it provides an intimate view into the healing processes of persons treated with EMDR. Individual stories are written in narrative form, describing the experiences and symptoms of each person before, during, and after EMDR treatment. Therapy descriptions include transcripts of actual treatment sessions. Each chapter highlights recovery from a different type of disorder: combat related trauma, incest and child abuse, rape, phobias and panic attacks, sleep disorders and childhood trauma, attachment disorders, traumatic grief, addiction, and diagnosis of life-threatening illness. This book is very helpful for persons considering EMDR treatment as it explains the therapy process from the client's perspective.
