EMDR And The Energy Therapies
Psychoanalytic Perspectives
by Phil Mollon
A pioneering work that explores how the insights of EMDR, energy psychology
and psychoanalysis can be combined to inform and enrich one another and enable
healing at a much deeper level.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), along with methods from
the new field of energy psychology, enable the rapid processing and release of
traumatic memories and painful emotion. Whilst both psychoanalytic and cognitive
therapies are able to elicit the structures of thought and feeling that trap the
individual in repetitive maladaptive behaviours, neither are very good at
actually processing and transforming the troubling emotions and mental pain.
Thus, traditional talking therapies may provide some insight or constructive
ways of thinking, but do not alter the core patterns of dysfunctional emotional
information. Phil Mollon’s revolutionary new book explores the advantages of
linking these therapies. In it he:
• Presents an overall model of the psychosomatic system.
• Summarises the relevant research.
• Provides many clinical examples.
• Shows how closely Freud’s psychoanalysis relates to energy psychology.
• Explains the process of each therapy.
An innovative and challenging work for all mental health professionals.
