Trouble Finding an Individual Memory when Trauma was Daily: A Topographic Approach
Using age, space, and topography to find an individual representative memory related to a presenting issue, theme, current trigger or emotional state.
• Identify a negative cognition.
• What age do we need to work related to that theme and negative cognition?
• Home, school, or community?
• Where (what room) in that space do we need to work?
• Where in that room or space (what chair at the table) do we need to work?
• Put yourself in that space at that age and related to that theme and negative cognition, what is the first memory that comes?
• Target that in EMDR Therapy.
