The Permanente Journal, 18(1), 71-77.Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3951033/This article explores the application of EMDR therapy in addressing both psychological and physical symptoms resulting from adverse life experiences, emphasizing its role as an effective treatment approach across various medical conditions.Bisson, J., & Andrew, M. (2007). Psychological treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, (3), CD003388.Link: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17636725This Cochrane systematic review evaluates the effectiveness of psychological treatments, including EMDR therapy, for PTSD. It provides an overview of randomized controlled trials and offers insights into the evidence supporting the efficacy of EMDR therapy.Lee, C. W., & Cuijpers, P. (2013). A meta-analysis of the contribution of eye movements in processing emotional memories.
