Intensive Therapy Archival Research

Intensive Therapy Archival Research

This is an internal treatment evaluation to determine whether eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) or progressive counting (PC) should become the preferred trauma treatment for the investigator's clients. The investigator is using routine/existing in-house measures and case files to track symptom reduction, trauma treatment time, rate of treatment switching (from EMDR to PC or vice versa), and rate of trauma treatment refusal. This is retrospective as well as prospective archival research.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Victims of crimes, including assault, rape, robbery, intimate partner violence, child abuse, kidnapping, vehicular homicide, and suicide
• Witnesses and family members of victims
