Course Summary
This event will consider the challenges that can emerge when working through the EMDR protocol with clients who have engaged in sexual offending. This will consider the use of EMDR as an adjunct to offence-focused work, with consideration of the AIP Model. It will explore the key academic literature looking at sexual offending and the offence drivers (Ricci and Clayton, 2016) that may respond well to EMDR intervention, and as part of the intervention pathway to the client addressing their offending through more detailed offence-focused work. It will further consider the challenges that can present with this population, such as distortions and minimisations, and how these may be considered and managed by the therapist as part of the EMDR therapy. Overall, this event is aimed to empower clinicians to feel confident with the EMDR protocol and AIP when engaging with a potentially challenging client population. The use of group discussion will be used to illustrate and develop learning. Focus will be on the standard EMDR protocol.
