The studies and our cases show that EMDR is at least equal to CBT treatment in depression (equivalence) but seems to result in more complete remissions than other interventions.

In the workshop, the evidence will be presented and our treatment manual (DeprEndr protocol) will be introduced. Please note that all sessions start on U.S. Central Time (UTC-05:00).
