First Step — EMDR Basic Training

Your first step is to take  EMDR Basic Training.  EMDR Basic Training with EMDR Professional Training is a 57-hour comprehensive training including practicums and consultations.  During your three-part training, you’ll learn the history of EMDR therapy, the essential theories behind this research-supported therapy, and the use of EMDR therapy with special populations and complex issues.  You’ll learn the essential steps and how to move through each phase with a client.  Treatment planning, an integral part of your EMDR Basic training, is addressed and practiced throughout the training, so you will feel equipped and ready to work with clients.

Advanced Courses at EMDR Professional Training–Your Advanced Learning Matters!

Your initial training in EMDR therapy is an eye-opening experience, no pun intended.  In fact, many participants report how learning EMDR therapy causes them to rethink just about everything in their clinical practice because “it all makes sense now.”  With this paradigm shift, many therapists find themselves in need of reviewing the basics of EMDR therapy and engaging in advanced training.  Go no further than our growing list of advanced courses, offering both professional and EMDRIA CEs.  Our advanced courses cover populations such as children, first responders, and athletes, as well as the complexities of dissociative disorders, psychosis, and addiction.
