Pros & Cons
Pros
I'm a huge proponent of emdr. Learning how to conquer them is the best. As for the book it is very insightful.

Cons
Francine shapiro is not a novelist, but a psychologist. This book is written like a 7th grade report on psychology. Whether emdr with a therapist works or not is not my point here.
The font is tiny and hard to read. The book is poorly written.
This is a meandering, overly long advertisement for emdr. It somehow avoids describing what emdr actually is or how it works. It provides a few simple basic techniques (tapping, butterfly hug) without going into any depth about them.
In short, too much baloney. The whining is nearly unbearable.

Quality

Some folks think that therapy is for the weak but its actually for the brave
Its possible that people who are visually thinkers will have phenomenal success with emdr

Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Because emdr is known so well for its use in treating ptsd from individual incidents eg an attack an accident etc i wasnt sure how well it would apply to a more longtermchronic issue that resulted in cptsd

Id recommend actually doing the writing exercises when possible and making special note of standout incidents whether youre in therapy or not
