| NEWSLETTER June 2021 Integrated Trauma Treatment in Drug Court: Combining EMDR Therapy and Seeking Safety | Springer Publishing Integrating EPB’s (Evidence Based Practices) appears to have better results than when used independent of each other. Check out this article to learn how using EMDR with Seeking Safety model resulted in significant benefits to those going through Drug Court. This includes improvement in functioning, reduction in recidivism and successful completion of Drug Court Treatment Program. I, myself, have been integrating MI (Motivational Interviewing) and EMDR for years now and have seen positive results around engagement, reduction in symptoms, reducing recidivism and successful completion of treatment. I am now working on putting together an Advanced EMDR training illustrating what I do to support clients who are ambivalent, struggling with co-occurring disorders, and struggling with complex PTSD. Stay tuned for dates in the future and a webinar presentation introducing the concepts and material. Using MI to Address COVID-19 Vaccine Hesitancy Amanda Gabarda and Susan W. Butterworth explain how one can use Motivational Interviewing to address the hesitancy that many people have regarding the COVID-19 vaccine. Visit this link to read the full article.
