Energy Psychology and EMDR: Combining Forces to Optimize Treatment

American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis, Oct 2003 by Accaria, Philip L

Energy Psychology and EMDR: Combining Forces to Optimize Treatment is most suitable to therapists already trained in energy psychology methods and EMDR because the authors do such an excellent job of presenting the basics, theory, history, and procedures relevant to each method separately as well as in their combined form. The clinician experienced in both or either of these approaches will undoubtedly learn something new. This book is also a superb introduction for the novice to energy psychology and EMDR for the very same reasons cited above.

Those untrained in energy psychology methods may find Gallo's (2002) Energy Psychology in Psychotherapy: A Comprehensive Sourcebook useful for obtaining a lay of the land in this area. Clinicians who have not trained in EMDR will find Shapiro's (2002 revised) EMDR: The Breakthrough Therapy for Overcoming Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma a most complete introduction to EMDR.

As noted above, this book is indeed a winner. Congratulations to John Hartung and Michael Galvin for their highly successful accomplishment!
