[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 588538, member: 14557"] difficult child's therapist doesn't use EMDR so that he hasn't tried. But it is some kind of structured specialised trauma therapy. To my understanding idea is to first stabilize the situation, then work on traumatic events in calm manner, go back to stabilizing and work again with trauma etc. Idea is, that it changes how person reacts to traumatic memory, change a feelings surrounding it. I really don't have words to explain this in English, sorry. In reality there seems to be lots of mindfulness-type of stuff in it. difficult child lives in Podunk city middle of nowhere and his choices with therapists were limited. In that area (within one hour drive) there was two therapists who use EMDR and neither took new patients last fall. In some ways my difficult child seems to answer well to tough love approach, clear expectations and no nonsense attitude. But he does better with small and quick consequences than just waiting and letting him dig a huge hole for himself. On other words he still answers parenting type approach quite well. [/QUOTE]
