EMDR CERTIFICATION
What is EMDR Consultation:
Once you have received an EMDRIA-approved basic EMDR training, it is recommended you complete the 10 group consultation hours with an EMDRIA-approved consultant. Completing the 10 hours of consultation means you have completed basic training in EMDR, will receive a certificate of completion, and then can go on to become certified in EMDR if you wish.
During the consultation you will develop your knowledge and confidence in:
•Case Formulation and treatment planning
•The Adaptive Information Processing Model
•Using standard and alternative EMDR procedures
