EMDR Consultation for Therapists

 
 

EMDRIA-approved consultation for EMDR therapists

Individual and group consultation is available for EMDR-trained therapists who have completed Basic Training in EMDR therapy and are:

  • Working towards EMDR certification through EMDRIA

  • Looking to integrate EMDR Intensives into their practice

  • Seeking case consultation for use of EMDR in sex therapy, for purity culture recovery, or sexual trauma

  • Learning to use EMDR with new specialty populations

  • Feeling stuck and seeking feedback on complex cases

  • Looking to refresh your perspective and increase confidence in your skills as an EMDR therapist

EMDR Consultation is provided remotely through a HIPAA-compliant video platform. In-person EMDR consultation may be available to clinicians local to the greater Columbus, Ohio area.

EMDR consultation is an investment in yourself and your clients

It’s a great feeling to head into your next session feeling better equipped and excited to help your client move through a current hurdle or the next phase of EMDR. You are worth the time and financial commitment of learning from and growing with an EMDR consultant. Not only is EMDR consultation an opportunity to sharpen your clinical skills and feel more confident in using EMDR therapy in your practice, but your clients directly benefit from the input you seek on their case. A fresh set of eyes and diverse perspectives are so valuable!
