During the intake I have also asked about EMDR and their response was similar. They explained to me that my trauma is complex and that EMDR is not appropriate for me. I come from europe. Do they have different thoughts about EMDR and DID?

only your treatment providers in the netherlands (where the TRTC is located)/europe say whether they have a different standard, treatment options and thoughts about EMDR and DID than another person/another treatment provider/another country...
here in america treatment providers dont always agree/have the same thoughts/opinions about things like treatment options..example I went to a workshop this past summer and the treatment providers were a diverse bunch from every walk of life, all kinds of expertise, options, opinions and more...
American has the freedom to have their own opinions, the freedom to choose their own treatment providers, the freedom to choose what treatments they want to try and what they dont want to try.
my suggestion your treatment providers are the ones treating you, go according to what you and your treatment providers feel is right for you.
