In this 8th revised edition of Pain Control with EMDR, Mark Grant, MA, describes how to apply this method to the treatment of chronic pain and medically unexplained symptoms (MUS). EMDR is indicated as a treatment for chronic pain/MUS because of its efficacy with trauma and the high comorbidity between trauma and pain. Somatic symptoms are an aspect of many psychological problems, offering a doorway to dissociated material and a pathway to healing to the trained eye.
Based on over 30 years of clinical experience and research, Pain Control with EMDR includes topics such as:
- Explanation of relationship between trauma (including emotional neglect/abuse) and pain
- Trauma, pain, and the brain
- Dissociative phenomena and chronic pain/MUS
- Trauma-informed case conceptualization
- EMDR pain protocol
- EMDR resourcing for pain
- EMDR, somatic interventions, and hypnosis
- Extensive treatment aids, resources, and patient handouts
- Numerous case studies
Tentang Penulis
Mark Grant is an Australian psychologist/researcher with 30 years of clinical experience. He has worked extensively with survivors of all sorts of trauma and sufferers of stress-related health problems (chronic pain, fatigue, IBS etc). He has also researched the use of EMDR as a treatment for chronic pain resulting in several peer reviewed publications.Mark believes that most people know more than they think, and they just need help to recover that early-learning growth mindset that they were born with. This means strategies that are consistent with what we know about how the mind and body work – strategies which appeal to sensory-emotional aspects of brain functioning and learning. Such strategies are more intuitive, and quicker than traditional modalities that rely on insight or thinking. This can lead to surprising results – Marks Anxiety Release app, which was designed according to these principles, stimulated the first published account of an app being used to completely resolve chronic pain (in a carpal tunnel syndrome sufferer). Mark is currently co-author on two chapters regarding EMDR treatment of pain for the Oxford University Press Handbook of EMDR (2023). Mark’s latest research project (2022) consists of an RCT to investigate the efficacy of a series of apps he has created to address the four main effects of PTSD; anxiety, medically unexplained pain, insomnia and damaged sense of self.
