Consultations for EMDR Practitioners

I bring to my consultations EMDR-related clinical expertise that includes adapting protocols to people with cultural differences, to people with co-occurring disorders (including dissociative disorders)  and to people with disabilities who have communication and cognitive differences. I offer a sliding scale fee arrangement to make these consultations accessible to people who are starting their practice, or who work in community mental health. My consulting practice is friendly to people who identify as having lived experience, and to people who identify as LGBTQ.

The EMDR International Association (EMDRIA) sets strict guidelines for EMDR therapy practice to ensure the highest standards of care for clients. These guidelines include rigorous training and certification requirements for EMDR therapists. My consultative process includes providing detailed instruction on EMDRIA guidelines and expectations for EMDR therapy practice. 

As an EMDR Consultant-in-Training, It's important to note that EMDRIA allows me to provide no more than 15 of the 20 hours of consultation required for EMDRIA Certification. I also receive consultations-of-consultations from a prominent EMDRIA Consultant and Qualified EMDR Training Provider.

During EMDR consulting sessions, I will work with you to develop a thorough understanding of EMDRIA guidelines, including its 8-phase treatment approach and the standard procedures for client screening and assessment, history-taking, and preparing clients for EMDR therapy.

Additionally, I will provide guidance on the use of EMDR therapy techniques, including the processing of traumatic memories, identifying and resolving blocked material, and utilizing EMDR therapy to address negative beliefs and emotions.

In each session, I will provide feedback and support to help you develop and refine your EMDR therapy skills, and will offer constructive critiques and suggestions for improvement. I may also provide opportunities for role-playing and practice sessions to build your confidence and mastery of EMDR therapy techniques.

By participating in EMDR consulting with me, you can expect to develop a deep understanding of EMDRIA guidelines, gain practical experience in applying EMDR therapy techniques, and receive personalized support and guidance as you work towards becoming a fully certified EMDR therapist.

I offer a complimentary 20-minute consultation. Contact me today to schedule one.
