“…EMDR intervention consists of a series of steps, including history taking, client preparation, assessment, desensitization, installation, body scan, closure, and reevaluation (Greenwald, 2004;Shapiro, 2012). EMDR intervention can enhance accessing the details of disturbing memories and accelerate their reprocessing by focusing on the sensory components (affective, cognitive, and somatic) in the experience (Shapiro, 2002), and it continues until the traumatic memory no longer brings emotional distress and a positive and adaptive perspective towards the traumatic memory is established (Ten Hoor, 2013). In conclusion, with EMDR, it is possible for individuals to strengthen their positive cognitions instead of negative cognitions, replace negative emotions with positive emotions, and reprocess a memory related to a phobic condition by emphasizing a clear beginning.…”
