EMDR Therapy is a therapeutic game-changer in the treatment of trauma. Now, venture into even more authentic, vulnerable, and liberatory perspectives on the practice in Queering EMDR Therapy. The vision of EMDR Therapist and Trainer Roshni Chabra, the volume editor, Queering EMDR Therapy brings together 27 additional contributors in sharing their voices of lived and learned experience.

This anthology of essays, papers, personal narratives, poetry, and artwork offers the EMDR Therapy community and the larger world something that LGBTQIAA2S+ people have long needed: to be seen and to be validated. Honoring lived experience in professional writing is how we highlight the richness and complexity that has been long missing from academic writing within EMDR Therapy. This book gives a platform for LGBTQIAA2S+ folx to speak their necessary truths about the practice and adventure of EMDR Therapy.

Our book features:

• Practically written chapters that offer EMDR Therapists enhanced insight into navigating the 8 Phases of EMDR Therapy with LGBTQIAA2S+ therapy participants
• Insights into framing EMDR Therapy as anti-oppressive and liberatory healing practices
• Contributions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender experiences, in addition to voices of intersex, non-monogamous, plural, and kink-affirming EMDR Therapists
• Neurodivergent and neuroqueer lenses for more adaptive implementations of EMDR Therapy
• Never-before-seen levels of vulnerability and sharing from EMDR Therapists who are both doing this work and living this work
