Come and journey with us through the intricacies of the human mind and reach new depths of understanding and expertise in your clinical practice
Training Overview
This is a training designed for clinicians who have not yet received formal training in EMDR therapy. Our EMDR Basic Training meets EMDRIA standards and offers additional hours on attachment theory, polyvagal theory, complex trauma and the latest findings from neurosciences and trauma. We’ll provide a safe learning and relational environment that will enhance your overall experience.
You’ll develop the skills to deliver the eight phases of EMDR treatment and utilize procedural steps while guided by case conceptualization and moment-to-moment decision-making markers founded on the Adaptive Information Processing model (AIP) (Shapiro).
You will also learn how to work with trauma-related symptomatology from a depathologizing and deshaming approach that embraces diversity and the uniqueness of each individual across the lifespan!
If you are already trained in EMDR therapy and would like to update your knowledge, you may take this training as a refresher at a reduced rate, participating only in the lecture portion.
