title: Eye movement desensitization treatment of a child's nightmares: a case report.
abstract: A new therapeutic method (eye movement desensitization), described in 1989 by Shapiro, was applied to the treatment of recurrent nightmares in a 10-year-old girl. The technique, in a single session, resulted in the complete remission of the nightmares. There was no relapse during a 6 month follow-up.
