IFS-Informed EMDR makes the case that the integration of these two influential therapy models creates something greater than the sum of its parts. It’s a book that can be used as a resource for therapeutic educational and training programs and as a supplement for people already familiar with at least one of these models.
Each chapter offers wisdom and practical guidance that will benefit anyone interested in learning the theoretical framework and practical applications of uniting EMDR and IFS for trauma healing.

Im excited by this book because the way the many authors combine EMDR with IFS addresses [ my concerns about EMDR being a protocol rather than a therapy] nicely and suggests ways that the combination can benefit IFS therapists as welle.g., when they get stuck or want to access more Self.
Richard Schwartz, PhD, founder of the Internal Family Systems model, and author of No Bad Parts
Several years ago, Richard Schwartz and Francine Shapiro each gave us paradigm-shifting approaches for helping people with desperate and complicated sources of dysfunction and unhappiness. This book shows clearly how these two powerful approaches are not only highly compatible, but in fact, can each add depth to the effectiveness of the other. I recommend it both for the new and experienced EMDR or IFS therapist.
