Workshop Description
​
EMDR therapy can be used as part of a comprehensive plan to increase a client’s stability, reduce a client’s reactivity to triggers for using or acting out, and for identifying underlying trauma that the client has not been aware of or has denied. In this interactive study group, the emphasis will be on practice and practical steps to integrate EMDR therapy with addiction treatment. We will review the addiction-focused protocols and we will discuss primarily the Feeling State Addiction Protocol (FSAP), which was developed by Dr. Robert Miller and was first published in Traumatology (2010). This protocol is based on the theory that assured survival feelings become fused with a behavior or substance, creating a “Positive Feeling States” (PFS). The individual continues to seek out that PFS through repetition of the behavior to the exclusion of other possible means by which to get that need met. These assured survival feelings are legitimate needs, but meeting them with drugs, alcohol, gambling, bingeing, shopping, etc., is not adaptive and can cause significant difficulties. We will discuss the theory and practice of FSAP.
Lastly, time will be allocated to practice the protocol steps for use with clients. Each participant will be asked to identify a real-life urge or compulsive behavior they wish to change and to practice these steps with other participants.
*Please note that although the experiential portion of this study group is key to learning the steps to work with clients, the practicum portion of this study group is not mandatory and participants will be able to opt out.
