This is a unique experience designed for child and adolescent clinicians that offers the full EMDRIA-Approved EMDR basic training along with substantial information on EMDR therapy with children and adolescents
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 16 additional hours on the use of EMDR therapy with children and adolescents, for a total of 66 hours of training! If you work with clients across the lifespan, you will still receive the information on EMDR therapy for adults required by EMDRIA.
You will also learn how to address trauma-related symptoms using a depathologizing, deshaming approach that honors diversity and recognizes the uniqueness of each individual client.
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.
