Clinicians are always looking for an intervention that may be more effective, more efficient, better tolerated by clients, or easier to master. Progressive counting is a significant advance in trauma treatment: a study comparing progressive counting to eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR, the prior leader in trauma treatment efficiency) found progressive counting to be as efficient as EMDR and as well tolerated by clients. Moreover, progressive counting is much simpler to learn and to do properly and is preferred over EMDR by most therapists trained in both. Now that progressive counting has been proven effective and efficient in controlled research, this book is here to show you how to do it.
