THIS IS A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE DESIGNED FOR CHILD AND ADOLESCENT CLINICIANS WORKING IN SCHOOL SETTINGS
You’ll receive the full EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Basic Training along with substantial information on EMDR Treatment delivery in schools. You’ll also receive hours of consultation with expert child and adolescent clinicians.
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 in school settings, 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.
We’ll provide a safe learning and relational environment that will enhance your overall experience.
We will work within a "school delivery continuum" from capacity building and preparation-based treatment to full EMDR treatment including trauma processing.
Based on where you are on the continuum and the focus of your school practice, you will develop the skills to utilize partial or the complete 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 address trauma-related symptoms using a neuroscience-informed, depathologizing, and deshaming approach that honors diversity and recognizes 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.
