What’s a good book that can give me a sense of how EMDR works?
For anyone considering EMDR, I recommend reading EMDR: The Breakthrough Therapy for Overcoming Anxiety, Stress, and Trauma by Francine Shapiro and Margot Silk Forrest. It provides an excellent overview of the process, and includes several chapters relating stories of specific clients and how EMDR helped address their symptoms. Many clients have indicated they found elements in the story that they could relate to, and that it gave them a clearer understanding of the approach.
