Thankful some research is starting on this! I use EMDR with my clients struggling with eating disorders all the time! It’s amazing.
New from the Journal of EMDR Practice and Research®:
A recent feasibility study explored the use of EMDR therapy as an adjunctive treatment for adolescents with eating disorders, examining impacts on eating disorder symptoms, trauma symptoms, and emotional regulation.
Preliminary findings suggest EMDR-ED may be a feasible and valuable addition to standard eating disorder treatment, particularly when addressing underlying trauma and attachment-related experiences.
