Rickkkeeeee,
Check with Lucieeee & then show some credible references & then maybe folks MIGHT take your hype seriously. I know little about EMDR but the little I've seen indicates it has about as much credibility as Anthony Robbins, who's only effective at promoting AR.
> On the other hand, EMDR has more controlled research supporting its use than any other psychotherapy method used to treat trauma, including direct comparisons to other credible treatments. When EMDR is used properly it consistently comes out either equal or superior.

> EMDR's efficacy has been recognized by the American Psychological Association's Committee on Empirically Validated Methods, and by the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies' Treatment Guidelines project. EMDR is used by the Red Cross, the FBI, The VA (some programs anyway) etc.
