There is preliminary, though growing evidence from three small-scale quantitative studies (Datta & Wallace, 1994;Finley, 2002;Ricci et al, 2006), a qualitative analysis (Ricci & Clayton, 2008), and a case study (Ricci, 2006), that combining EMDR with standard cognitive-behavioral therapyrelapse prevention (CBT-RP) group treatment, increases the offender's treatment motivation, enhances his empathic Downloaded by [University of Auckland Library] at 19:50 13 October 2014 capacity, increases his internal locus of control, and increases his tolerance for emotions that could trigger the sexual offending cycle.…”

“…Ricci (2006) indicates that the method does not require a significant amount of verbal processing on the part of the participant, making it an appropriate choice for individuals reticent to discuss their own histories. As a consequence, the possibility of therapists blocking the process by becoming too confrontational is restricted.…”

Ricci (2006) report another case study with an incestuous child abuser; and finally, Ricci, Clayton and Shapiro (2006) examined EMDR as an adjunct to standard sexual offender treatment for sexual offenders with unresolved childhood trauma (Ricci et al, 2006) and found significant post treatment improvements on six areas specific to sexual offending (e.g., sexual thoughts). However, to date, there is no published research investigating the effectiveness of EMDR in mentally disordered offenders presenting with offence-related trauma.…”
