EMDR Consultation for Therapists

If you have completed a basic training and have started the process of using EMDR on clients, it can be overwhelming with more complex trauma cases. Finding a good consultant that you can consult with is so important in your learning process, especially in the beginning. I get it and understand how there are so many questions that come up in your work and down the road. Get one on one consultation and obtain hours towards your certification as an EMDRIA certified therapist.

I can help.

I am a Certified EMDR therapist, an EMDRIA approved Consultant in Training and member of EMDR International Association. I am a huge believer in EMDR and very passionate about the work that I do. I have completed ample hours of consultation. I have completed basic training twice, once through EMDRIA approved EMDR Institute (in 2019) and the second time through EMDRIA approved training at EMDR Education and Training Center (in 2020). I consulted under Kara Nossardi, LMFT who was trained at the Sonoma Psychotherapy Training Institute with Andrew Leeds, PhD. Kara has extensive experience and is the Founder and Director at EMDR Training and Education Center. She trained me to look at the client with an attachment based lens, while utilizing Parts Work with more complex dissociative clients. I have also received my own EMDR therapy which I highly recommend for anyone becoming an EMDR therapist.

If you are looking to do an EMDRIA approved basic training I would highly recommend: EMDR Education and Training Center.
