In the EMDR specific research, there is one new research study, “EMDR-based multicomponent trauma treatment with child victims of severe interpersonal trauma” (Jarero, Roque-Lopez & Gomez, 2013); one EMDR neuroimaging review “Correlates of EMDR therapy in functional and structural neuroimaging” (Pagani, Hogberg, Fernandez & Siracusano, 2013), one EMDR Training Survey “EMDR training experience in UK and Ireland” (Farrell & Keenan, 2013). There are two EMDR case reports: “Specific phobia: Flight” (Laker, M. (2013) and “Considerations in comorbid irritable bowel syndrome and fibromyalgia” (Tynes & Spiegel, 2013). And from a new feature in the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research there are two new EMDR case consultations: “Traumatized pregnant woman” (Forgash, Leeds, Stramrood & Robbins, 2013) and “Unremitting depression” (Shapiro, Hofmann & Grey, 2013).
This month there are six treatment reviews mentioning EMDR: “Meta-Analysis of dropout in treatments for posttraumatic stress disorder” (Imel, Laska, Jakupcak & Simpson, 2013); “Effectiveness and implementation of evidence-based practices in residential care settings” (James, Alemi & Zepeda, 2013); “Effectiveness and implementation of evidence-based practices in residential care settings” (James, Alemi & Zepeda, 2013); “Treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder in patients with severe mental illness” (Mabey, & van Servellen, 2013); “Interventions for children exposed to nonrelational traumatic events” (Forman-Hoffman, et al. 2013); “Interventions to reduce distress in adult victims of rape and sexual violence” (Regehr, Alaggia, Dennis, Pitts, & Saini, 2013); “
Finally there are two non-EMDR articles of potential interest to EMDR clinicians and researchers on general topics of trauma: “Trauma: A unifying concept for social work” (Joseph & Murphy, 2013) and “Transference-Focused psychotherapy with former child soldiers” (Draijer & Van Zon, 2013).
