EMDR and DoD/VA PTSD Clinical Practice Guidelines
Hi all,
I've been hearing that EMDR doesn't have much research support for treating combat-related PTSD, and the studies I've found seem to support that (like https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/21635781.2013.827088). So, now I'm wondering, does anyone know why the DoD/VA 2017 CPG included EMDR as a frontline psychotherapy for PTSD, alongside PE and CPT? I looked at the guidelines and the studies they referenced in support of EMDR were not with combat veterans.
