Exploring EMDR and Client Conversations

EMDR allows old memories to surface during present conversations, helping to identify the origin of distress. It is important to make space for these conversations with clients instead of pushing them away. The use of CIP in EMDR prep work enhances client's understanding of the connection between present experiences and past traumas, making it less surprising during processing. History taking and case conceptualization greatly influence the overall EMDR experience, leading to profound realizations and belief in the therapy's effectiveness.
