Am I missing something? As far as I knew, EMDR has not been found to be any clinically different from CBT and is basically CBT + hocus pocus. Yet, many, many MFTs/LCSWs, psychologists, and psychiatrists that I work with swear by EMDR. I see a lot of trauma and PTSD cases, mostly for medications. I want to refer them to the best therapy possible and I'm feeling some pressure to refer them for EMDR despite my misgivings. Is there more recent research that acknowledges the eye-movements as uniquely beneficial? Or have my colleagues just been taken in by good marketing?
