SUMMARY:Compassion-Focused EMDR therapy in the treatment of Moral Injury and Shame-based Trauma
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Prof Derek Farrell MBE – Professor in Trauma Psychology & Veteran Studies\, Northumbria University\, and Queen’s University Belfast.\, EMDR  Europe Accredited Senior Trainer & Consultant\, & BABCP Accredited CBT therapist.  \n9.30 – 4.30 11th October 2025. By Zoom. The session will be recorded. \nAbstract: Many of the symptoms experienced by traumatised individuals are not  sufficiently captured by the existing ICD-11/DSM 5 criterion for PTSD\, particularly when  those symptoms include feelings of shame/ guilt\, loneliness\, social isolation\, fear of  recrimination\, and moral injury. Addressing these specific elements\, particularly regarding  moral injury/ is increasingly important. \nMoral injury refers to the psychological distress resulting from events that transgress an  individual’s moral or ethical beliefs. Compassion Focused Eye Movement Desensitization and  Reprocessing (EMDR) is an emerging treatment approach for individuals experiencing moral  injury. The approach integrates EMDR with compassion-focused techniques to target the shame\,  guilt\, and self-criticism often associated with moral injury/ trauma. \nThis presentation explores the core components of moral injury and shame-based trauma using both individual and political case studies\, through the lens of Adaptive Information  Processing (AIP). \nSpecific skills within Compassion-Focussed EMDR therapy (CF-EMDR)\, will include CF EMDR informed case conceptualisation\, psychoeducational frameworks\, trauma regulation\, strategies\, compassion-focussed interweaves\, and addressing vicarious  traumatisation and self-care. \nLearning Outcomes:\n1. Participants will consider the core components of Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) and how this applies to more vulnerable and complex populations with a specific focus on moral injury and shame-based trauma\n2. Participants will explore various theoretical frameworks to explicate the trauma landscape of the client’s lived experience through a moral\, and compassion-focussed lens\n3. Theoretical\, empirical\, and clinical case examples will be utilised to underpin knowledge\, understanding and application \nSpeaker Biography: \nProf Derek Farrell MBE is a Professor in Trauma Psychology and Veterans Affairs at the University of Northumbria (Newcastle)\, and Queen’s University Belfast.
