by that I meant treatment providers no longer use the multi axial \ poly fragmented system of diagnosis. this was one where alters were ranked by how important they were in the system, whether they were first, second or third forth last..., whether they were fully formed or just an unimportant fragment that didnt matter. and ranked according to whether they sprung into being from the host (body born) or whether they sprung \ branched off from another alter. now we have a diagnosis system in place where it does not matter whether an alter is just a fragment or first or second or where they sprung into being from alter or host. now treatment providers here in the USA treat all alters as essential and important regardless.
I also stated in my locations treatment providers do not have to learn the structural dissociation model in doing EMDR.

You are right they do not
have to... yet. It is starting to be integrated into EMDR therapy there as well, however, and there is a
push to get that happening more.
You haven't quite grasped the concepts of structural dissociation yet - it isn't about poly fragmentation or 'who came first or second or third'. It isn't about some parts of the self being more or less important than any other. Keep reading - you'll get there.
