EMDR Basic Training

EMDR is a powerful treatment, clinically demonstrated to be effective with several presenting issues. It is an evidence based practice for the treatment of PTSD, though shown to be effective with other common presentations including anxiety, depression, addictions, panic, grief and more. EMDR includes components of cognitive, emotional, somatic and narrative modalities and facilitates adaptive resolution of symptoms.

We strive to create an engaging, inspiring, fun and dynamic training experience. Our team teaches in a trauma informed manner, and focuses heavily on your felt experience through the learning process. We believe in not only teaching you outstanding EMDR, but also in giving you a powerful and inspiring learning experience. We achieve this through a mixture of authenticity, transparency, yoga, humor and magic.

This training is approved by EMDRIA for live and virtual sessions. Attending either training format will prepare clinicians to practice with clients after the first intensive session, will teach clinicians how to faciliate EMDR in person or over tele-health, and meets all requirements for completing EMDR Basic Training.

About The Training

EMDR Basic Training consists of 50 hours of training. This includes 20 hours of lecture, 20 hours of practicum and 10 hours of group consultation. In addition, trainees will have access to an online learning platform to support their learning process. The online learning platform includes additional resources, a discussion page, videos, and links to learning material.

Our training content covers all required components of EMDR Basic Training. We additionally include education on the Polyvagal Theory, attention to diversity and multicultural considerations as applicable to the clinical work, specialty attention to dissociation, and demonstration videos. Our demonstration videos include in person and virtual sessions, with individuals of diverse backgrounds.

Training is organized into 2 sections, Part 1 & Part 2 as well as group consultation. These sections include lecture style learning in the morning, followed by afternoon practicum. During practicum, trainees practice skills in small groups as client and therapist. Practice as client and therapist is important, as it provides rich learning opportunities and vital experiences for integrating the material. More information about topics and populations covered in Part 1 and 2 can be found below.

In addition to Part 1 and 2 intensives, trainees are required to complete 10 hours of consultation. Consultation is provided in an online group format, and groups are organized at your first training intensive. Group consultation offers a dynamic and engaging opportunity to staff questions with your consultant and colleagues about clients, treatment planning, techniques, specialty populations, and more.

Upon completion of all training and consultation, participants will receive a certificate of completion. At that time you may pursue Certification in EMDR, if you choose to. Certification is an advanced level of training beyond the requirements of Basic Training.

Virtual Training

EMDR remote training is effective, and so is EMDR over tele-health!

We are proud to offer EMDR Basic Training over a virtual format. We are an approved EMDRIA Virtual Training Provider. Virtual EMDR training will prepare you to practice in person or virtually and allows the clinician to begin using skills after the first intensive session.

Remember, although virtual, this is still a training environment. Please plan to be as present as you would be for a live in-person training. Our afternoon practicum is designed to be a practice therapy space. Make sure all distractions are kept to a minimum as they would be in a regular therapy session.

Testimonials

I really loved everything about this training, as well as those facilitating it! Knowledgable, passionate, practical, and kind. Best training I have ever received.

This was a great training. I was concerned with the virtual format but it was not a problem with the interaction from the trainer. I will definitely be doing more trainings with Rebecca!

I truly appreciate your ability to lead a 3 day intense training and hold my attention, which is not so easy to do. Your energy is amazing. I'm so glad you are now a part of my journey.

I will recommend this training to all of my colleagues until the end of time. I have attended many trainings in my career & this is the best one.

This was the most amazing training. I have never been so engaged via Zoom!

Preparing for Training:

Required Text
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy; 3rd Edition. (2018) by Francine Shapiro.

Participants are asked to begin reading the Shapiro text prior to Part 1 and complete the text as they progress through training.

The Importance of Self Care During Training:

The EMDR training experience can be inspiring, invigorating, and fulfilling. It can also be tiring, intense, and triggering. Therefore, it is important to be fully aware of the process and understand the importance of self care and self efficacy in attending training.
EMDR training consists of three days of trauma training. Trauma training alone has the potential to be triggering. In addition, participants spend a considerable amount of time practicing EMDR as therapist and client, which is a required portion of training. As client, it is expected that you use a real and slightly disturbing experience to work with. This is vital in order for all to have an authentic, rich, and genuine learning experience. While you will be deeply supported and always empowered to make choices for yourself, know that these are components of your training.

Due to the nature of training, it is therefore vital that participants have skills to self soothe, regulate, and contain distress. This is necessary for everyone to have a safe and supportive learning environment.

EMDR training is not recommended if you are currently struggling with acute symptoms or uncontrollable dissociation. Please take time to care for you before taking EMDR training.

Self care during and after training is strongly encouraged.

Here are some self care tips while completing Basic Training:

Eat and stay hydrated.

Wear comfortable clothes.
Be present and minimize distractions.

Avoid stimulating activities after training. Even a trip to the grocery store can be a bit much.

Avoid substances after training. Your brain will be exhausted and needs time to rest and heal.

Plan to get plenty of sleep after training days.

It is strongly encouraged, if possible, to take a day or two for self care after training to rest and restore.

Plan something soothing and calming to the nervous system after training like a massage, yoga, a bath, a walk, etc.

Be gentle with yourself. Have compassion for your process, AND the process of your colleagues.

Seek out your healers if you need additional support. EMDR training can bring things up, so have their numbers ready.
