Course Description

Many therapists struggle to effectively navigate dissociation in EMDR sessions. These struggles sometimes result from fear of people who dissociate or being impacted by stigma about dissociation, both within the psychological professions and in the media. In this workshop, EMDR Therapy trainer and author Dr. Jamie Marich, who is public about living with dissociative identities, shares her favorite teaching film on helping others to understand Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID), Petals of a Rose. Jamie is also joined by the film’s director and co-author Dylan Crumpler, and his mother Holly Crumpler. Given that DID has often been inaccurately and negatively portrayed in film/television, Dylan Crumpler created his senior thesis film at Chapman University to realistically depict the life of a woman with DID. Dylan wrote a screenplay with his mother, Holly Crumpler, who has DID, and then developed it into a short film. In her own teaching on normalizing the experiences of DID and dissociation for EMDR therapists, Jamie has taken to using Petals of a Rose as a teaching tool for case conceptualization. In this workshop, participants will view the 15-minute film, engage in a panel discussion with Jamie, Dylan, and Holly, and then explain how an EMDR therapist might proceed if Rose, the film’s protagonist, came into EMDR therapy.
