Book Description
A Breakthrough Therapy for Those Tough Trauma CasesFive million Americans suffer from post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) every year. While many go untreated, others receive substandard care. To make matters worse, research suggests the trauma therapies recommended by the American Psychological Association as "most effective" are only marginally successful. In this book, Mike Deninger explores both the science of trauma and the shortcomings of "evidence-based practices" for PTSD. Relying on his extensive training and experience with "bottom-up," sensory-based techniques, he proposes adopting a brain-based treatment paradigm instead. After reviewing the origins of eye movement therapies, Deninger explains the basis for his Multichannel Eye Movement Integration (MEMI) and shares the profound results achievable with this new approach. Remarkably straightforward, MEMI procedures are easy to learn and use. More than just a description of the method's protocol, this book is a "how-to" guide with detailed instructions and scripts for therapists who decide to integrate MEMI into their treatment regimens. A trauma survivor himself, Deninger writes with a confidence that only one "who has been there" can.
