That research is likely out of date.

Out of date does not necessarily mean wrong. If you want to challenge this result the burden is on you to cite some more recent work with different results.
You can simply google more recent things dude. You picked an article from 2001. Try 2021 or 2022. Clearly you have an agenda.

But here's a case report showing a reduction in tics after EMDR.

In a single patient. Published in the Italian Journal of Pediatrics, which is not exactly a top-tier journal.

If that's the best you've got, that makes me even more confident that EMDR is bogus.

> Clearly you have an agenda.

Indeed I do. My agenda is to seek the truth, and to debunk bogus scientific claims wherever I encounter them.

There is growing evidence that EMDR works. If you can't find any articles yourself and read the literature well then it is your loss.
