«Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing» is a method for trauma treatment, initially developed for adults, but raising more and more awareness amongst child professionals. The way this therapy can be applied with children and adolescents varies from adult populations, because a child is constantly developing and in relation with his/her parents. The level of evidence also differs, literature offering less studies in this domain. Nevertheless, existing studies are promising and show, on a small scale mostly, that EMDR is effective for treating trauma in children.
