Delivers the Evidence-Based Gold-Standard EMDR Protocol for Ameliorating Depression This groundbreaking book introduces EMDR-DeprEnd, a pathogenic memory-based EMDR therapy approach. DeprEnd has been demonstrated in a number of studies and meta-analyses to be at least as effective—and often more effective—than other guideline-based therapies in treating depression, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). EMDR-DeprEnd is particularly helpful with chronic and recurrent depression that does not respond well to other treatments. Written by the international research team who developed this quick-acting and efficient therapy, the text provides clinicians with the evidence-based tools they need to integrate EMDR-DeprEnd into their practices. This text explains in depth a step-by-step approach to processing the pathogenic memory structures that are the basis of most depressive disorders and ways to address both depressive and suicidal states. Real-world case studies incorporate the often-co-occurring trauma-based disorders found in depressive patients. These are practical “how-to” chapters, including one devoted to drawing integration with numerous examples of actual patient drawings as clients go through the EMDR process. Abundant illustrations enhance understanding of stress and trauma-based depressive disorders and the successful interventions that improve client outcomes. Protocol scripts for therapist and client also help prepare readers to provide optimal treatment to their clients. Key Features: Authored by the international research team who developed this touchstone EMDR therapy treatment Helps with chronic and recurrent depression especially if it is resistant to guideline-based treatments, including CBT Demonstrates step-by-step how to apply the DeprEnd protocol using real-world case examples Describes how EMDR’s neurobiological working mechanism effectively treats depression Includes protocol scripts and a review of randomized controlled trials related to EMDR and depression Illustrates how DeprEnd protocol reduces depressive relapses

This study examined the efficacy of EMDR therapy as a treatment for unipolar depression. Results provide preliminary evidence for the efficacy of EMDR therapy. Of the 12 participants that received 10 sessions of EMDR therapy, four met the criteria for "Recovered," six "Improved" and two reported no change in severity of depressive symptoms. Results further indicated that participants who experienced decline in depressive symptoms within the first six sessions of treatment had a higher probability to be meet the criteria for "Recovered." A small sample comparison between EMDR therapy (n = 4) and CBT (n = 4) did not find any significant difference in terms of treatment outcome. In phase 2, participants in both groups either improved or recovered after 10 sessions of treatment. Sudden gains analysis indicated that 5 out of 12 EMDR therapy participants had sudden gains. Participants in sudden gains group were more likely to meet "Recovered" criteria than participants in no-gains group. Examination of attention bias found that depression was positively related to negative affect fixation duration and negatively related to positive affect fixation duration when only using female affect images. These findings support previous research that used attention bias to differentiate depressed and non-depressed persons. Clinical implication and further research are discussed.
