I understand that the negative cognition associated with the selected target is addressed during emdr. My question was more on whether cognitive distortions themselves; all or nothing thinking, emotional reasoning, mind reading can be the actual target? I'm wondering if using the cognitive distortion as the selected target if this would somehow link to a time when that distortion was developed and, then, as a result resolve that event so the distortion can be effectively changed. So rather than starting from an event that may have led to the distortion developing the distortion would be the starting point.And, I'm not really thinking of specific negative cognitions rather the broader cognitive distortions as noted above. Not sure if this clarifies my original questions.
