Course Description
Individuals on the autism spectrum are a special population for EMDR clinicians. Increasingly, there is a need for clinicians to be aware of the special vulnerabilities and accommodations needed for working with these people. In this workshop, Sandra Paulsen interviews Sherri Paulson (no relation) regarding the latter’s long-standing specialism in individuals with significant levels of autism. They discuss many of the adjustments that are needed to the standard protocol to successfully work with this population.
