About this book

Francine Shapiro examines how earlier experiences can shape present emotions, habits and relationships, including memories that are poorly understood. Drawing on EMDR therapy, she explains connections between distress and memory through case examples and practical exercises. The book presents ways of recognizing recurring reactions and working with the emotional difficulties associated with past events.

About the author

Francine Shapiro

Shapiro devised EMDR in 1987 after noticing that her own distressing thoughts eased while her eyes moved across a park, and built a therapy around recalling trauma while tracking a moving finger. It is now recommended for post-traumatic stress by the World Health Organization and by clinical guidelines in several countries, and it does help people.
