Polyvagal-Informed EMDR is a cutting-edge book that skillfully

great sophistication, yet practical steps. This is a must-have book
for all EMDR clinicians to enhance their clinical practice to the
next level. Rebecca Kase demonstrates the power of thinking outside
the box to help transform new pathways of healing trauma.--Les

Polyvagal-Informed EMDR makes perfect sense. As an integrative
treatment approach, EMDR therapy focuses on all components of a
memory, including the impact of adverse experiences on the nervous
system. Rebecca Kase provides a clear description of Polyvagal
Theory and specific interventions to apply directly to the eight
phases of the EMDR Standard Protocol. She explores the linkages
between autonomic responses, the storage of memory, and a variety
of clinical presentations. Using PVT interventions, EMDR clinicians
can optimize healthy biological responses and utilize them
intentionally throughout EMDR therapy.--Rosalie Thomas, PhD, senior
faculty, EMDR Institute, past president, EMDR International
Association
Every EMDR trainer, consultant, and practitioner should read
Polyvagal-Informed EMDR. This clearly-written book brings somatic
and attachment lenses and procedures to every part of the EMDR
protocol. It reminds us that clients' needs for connection, safety,
and safe presence supersede the therapists' needs for immediate
trauma processing. It gives us specific language and actions to
create and keep the all-important dual attention that allows trauma
processing to work. After 29 years in the EMDR world, I see this as
the best new lens through which to see and do our good work.--Robin
Shapiro, EMDRIA approved consultant, trainer, and practitioner
