This 8-hour EMDR Therapy refresher training is designed for EMDR-trained clinicians who want to feel more grounded, clear, and confident in their work. Together, we revisit the standard EMDR protocol through a practical review of the Adaptive Information Processing model, the eight phases of EMDR Therapy, and the three-pronged approach.
Along the way, participants will explore common clinical stuck points, deepen their understanding of when protocol modifications may be appropriate, and strengthen their ability to work with more complex case presentations. The training also includes client video examples to bring the material to life, along with an added emphasis on advanced treatment planning so clinicians leave with ideas they can apply right away.
This training includes and is approved for 8 EMDRIA Credits (No licensure credits offered).
Training dates:
Friday, July 17th | 9am - 1:30pm PT
Saturday, July 18th | 9am - 1:30pm PT
Please note the Pacific Time Zone.
