Francine Shapiro, PhD, until her death in 2019, was Senior Research Fellow Emeritus at the Mental Research Institute in Palo Alto, California; Executive Director of the EMDR Institute in Watsonville, California; and founder and President Emeritus of the Trauma Recovery/EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs, a nonprofit organization that coordinates disaster response and pro bono trainings worldwide. The originator and developer of EMDR therapy, Dr. Shapiro was a recipient of the International Sigmund Freud Award for distinguished contribution to psychotherapy, presented by the City of Vienna in conjunction with the World Council for Psychotherapy; the Award for Outstanding Contributions to Practice in Trauma Psychology from Division 56 of the American Psychological Association; and the Distinguished Scientific Achievement in Psychology Award from the California Psychological Association. Dr. Shapiro was designated as one of the “Cadre of Experts” of the American Psychological Association and the Canadian Psychological Association Joint Initiative on Ethnopolitical Warfare and served as advisor to a wide variety of trauma treatment and outreach organizations and journals. She was an invited speaker at psychology conferences worldwide and published more than 90 articles, chapters, and books about EMDR.
"This third edition provides an updated and comprehensive--yet very
accessible--description of Shapiro's pioneering technique. Shapiro
has consistently promoted research to substantiate the efficacy of
EMDR therapy and has also incorporated the feedback she has
received from both clinicians and clients. EMDR is a sophisticated,
highly integrative treatment that draws from a variety of
theoretical orientations. It is experiential and client centered,
with the goal of assisting clients to reprocess and heal from their
dysfunctional storage of trauma-based material. This book should be
in the libraries of all clinicians--it has changed the way trauma
is treated and has broad applicability to myriad other mental
health conditions."--Christine A. Courtois, PhD, ABPP, private
practice (retired), Washington, DC; consultant and trainer, trauma
psychology and treatment, Bethany Beach, Delaware
"An excellent resource on an important evidence-based treatment for
traumatic stress. This book is relevant for all practitioners
interested in EMDR therapy, including novices as well as those who
already use the approach. The third edition offers a wealth of
detail to guide the reader in applying EMDR across a range of
clinical presentations. Highly recommended."--David Forbes, PhD,
Professor, Department of Psychiatry, University of Melbourne;
Director, Phoenix Australia--Centre for Posttraumatic Mental
Health
"EMDR revolutionized the treatment of PTSD and has emerged as a
front-line therapy for multiple forms of psychological trauma. The
third edition of this foundational work underscores EMDR's
integrative nature, research support, and sensitive adaptations to
diverse populations. The clinical aids, client transcripts, and
fidelity scales will prove a boon to practitioners and researchers
alike."--John C. Norcross, PhD, ABPP, Distinguished Professor of
Psychology, University of Scranton
"It's not easy to take a classic and improve on it, but that's what
Shapiro has done in this third edition, with her usual combination
of incisive writing, scientific rigor, and deep compassion for
human suffering. The strength of EMDR's research base is now
available in one easily accessible place, a testament to Shapiro's
decades of insistence that no matter how clinically useful EMDR
therapy might be, it needs to be supported by empirical data. The
book clearly describes applications to the range of posttraumatic
responses as well as other clinical problems. It is truly a gift
for clinicians--and our clients."--Laura S. Brown, PhD, ABPP, past
president, Division of Trauma Psychology, American Psychological
Association; private practice, Seattle, Washington
"The third edition expands on EMDR's proposed mechanisms of action
and presents updated research beyond posttraumatic stress disorder,
including applications for complex problems such as addictions and
dissociative disorder. It is especially encouraging to see the link
between trauma and addiction made clear, given the worldwide
epidemic that addiction has become."--Susan Brown, LCSW, private
practice, La Mesa, California -
