Induced After-Death Communication (IADC) therapy was discovered in 1995 by Dr. Allan L. Botkin, Psy.D, and arose out of Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), which is a method that uses bilateral stimulation to process trauma. Bilateral stimulation is an evidenced-based intervention for decreasing distress and reprocessing the traumatic data (visual, cognition, emotions, body sensations) stored in memory.

“IADC is a psychotherapeutic treatment for grief that has at its core the goal of reducing the intense sadness and emotional distress associated with grief and traumatic loss. When the grief-related sadness surrounding the loss diminishes, clients generally experience a state of calmness, openness, and receptivity. In this state, about two-thirds to three-fourths of clients report experiencing a deep sense of connection with the deceased loved one, which may be experienced through sensory means (sight, sound, smell, taste, etc.) or as a “sense of presence” of the loved one. This sense of connection is a well-researched phenomenon referred to in the scientific literature as “after-death communication” or “ADC,” which has been shown to have significant beneficial impacts related to bereavement (Elsaesser, et al. 2020; Streit-Horn, 2011).”
