EMDR is a comprehensive psychotherapy approach that is compatible with all contemporary theoretical orientations. Internationally recognized as a frontline trauma treatment, it is also applicable to a broad range of clinical issues. As a distinct form of psychotherapy, the treatment emphasis is placed on directly processing the neurophysiologically stored memories of events that set the foundation for pathology and health. The adaptive information processing model that governs EMDR practice…

Integrative psychotherapy and psychotherapy integration: The case of EMDR
The Therapeutic Relationship in EMDR Therapy
TLDR
The therapeutic relationship is described in this article and parallels between the therapeutic relationship and the development and core features of an attachment based relationship are pointed out and EMDR Therapy is proposed to describe as a sensitive psychotherapy.
The AIP Model of EMDR Therapy and Pathogenic Memories
TLDR
The theory of pathogenic memories seems compatible to the AIP model of EMDR therapy, which offers strategies to effectively access and transmute these memories leading to amelioration or resolution of symptoms.
A Developmental/Integrative Perspective of the Recent Traumatic Episode Protocol
The recent traumatic episode protocol (R-TEP) is an adaptation of the eye movement desensitization reprocessing (EMDR) standard protocol to the acute phases following trauma. In this article, the…

TLDR
The author proposes that best practices requires not only an adherence to the fidelity of the model, but a willingness to adapt the model in order to best meet the needs of the authors' clients in a variety of clinical contexts.
The Predictive Processing Model of EMDR
TLDR
The Predictive Processing model of EMDR postulates that EMDR facilitates the predictive processing of traumatic memory by overcoming the bias against exploration and evidence accumulation, following successful treatment with EMDR.
A Dialectical Perspective on the Adaptive Information Processing Model and EMDR Therapy
This article proposes a dialectical perspective on the adaptive information processing (AIP) model (F. Shapiro, 1995, 2001) with application to eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR)…
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing with Body-Oriented Interventions within the field of adoption: Translating neuroscience into a clinical case study

TLDR
It is proposed that the repetitive redirecting of attention in EMDR induces a neurobiological state, similar to that of REM sleep, which is optimally configured to support the cortical integration of traumatic memories into general semantic networks.

A critical evaluation of current views regarding eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR): clarifying points of confusion.
TLDR
Points of confusion in the published literature on EMDR are due to the lack of an empirically validated model capable of convincingly explaining the effects of the EMDR method, inaccurate and selective reporting of research, some poorly designed empirical studies, inadequate treatment fidelity in some outcome research, and multiple biased or inaccurate reviews by a relatively small group of authors.
