Study design: Systematic Review
Abstract: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a serious mental health problem that can occur in anyone, including adolescents. PTSD can cause various symptoms, such as anxiety, depression, and flashbacks. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy that has been proven effective in treating PTSD. This study aims to review the literature on the effectiveness of EMDR in overcoming PTSD in adolescents. A literature search was conducted through electronic databases such as PubMed, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar. The inclusion criteria for the selected studies were: (1) studies that investigated the effectiveness of EMDR in adolescents with PTSD, (2) studies that used a controlled research design, and (3) studies published in English or Indonesian. A total of 10 studies met the inclusion criteria. The results of the study showed that EMDR is effective in reducing PTSD symptoms in adolescents. Eight of the 10 studies showed that EMDR was significantly more effective than control therapy in reducing PTSD symptoms. The other two studies showed that EMDR was as effective as control therapy. This study suggests that EMDR is an effective therapy for adolescents with PTSD. EMDR can help adolescents process their trauma and reduce PTSD symptoms.
