EMDR Consultation Offerings

EMDR Certification Package

This small group consultation package is designed to support clinicians who are working toward completion of basic training, EMDRIA Certified Therapist™ status, as well as clinicians who aspire to develop more confidence and fidelity with the EMDR standard protocol as well as advanced EMDR practices and protocols.

Participants will receive documentation appropriate for submission with an EMDRIA certification application, including:

  • Record of consultation hours (dates, duration, and format)

  • Verification of hours completed with a Consultant-in-Training

  • A signed consultation verification letter confirming completed consultation hours

 Package details:

  • Maximum 3 participants per closed cohort. These groups are intentionally kept small to ensure that each participant has meaningful opportunity for discussion and clinical feedback.

  • 5 group sessions per cohort

  • Each participant receives approximately 30 mins of focused consultation on their own cases during each session.

  • Each 90 minute session allows all consultees to benefit from collaborative discussion and learning from colleagues’ cases.

  • This group consultation package will account for 7.5 total consultation hours. These hours may be assigned to either individual or group consultation hours in accordance with current EMDRIA consultation standards and the requirements applicable to each clinicians certification pathway.

  • Participants are encouraged to confirm with EMDRIA how these consultation hours may be allocated toward their individual and group consultation requirements.
