EMDR Phase 2: Preparation Transition Object "Pocket Pals" (14pgs)

This is a great and unique activity in which the child creates a customized “transitional object” to help them cope with challenging situations outside of therapy. BLS is used to help link empowering imagery and meaningful information to the object. BLS is also used while imagining exposure to a feared future event, while simultaneously thinking about empowering imagery and meaningful information. The Therapist Guide will provide you with a narrative and further directions to facilitate the activity.
