Courage, hope, and transformation: Patient experiences of web-based, therapist delivered eye movement desensitization and reprocessing for suicidal ideation
Overview
This qualitative study examines the lived experiences of adult outpatients who received web-based, therapist-delivered EMDR for suicidal ideation as part of a larger randomized controlled trial. Through semi-structured interviews with fourteen participants, the authors identified five main themes regarding systemic obstacles, relational safety, and posttraumatic growth. The resource is intended for researchers and clinicians interested in patient perspectives on digital mental health interventions.
