TRAINING & CONSULTATION EXPECTATIONS

The EMDR Training includes Part I and Part II, each of which are three-day training sessions, as well as 10 hours of consultation on EMDR Therapy, and required reading (which includes the following: 1) Shapiro, Francine. (2018). Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy, Third Edition: Basic Principles, Protocols, and Procedures. New York: Guildford Press, 2) a 2020 issue of Go With That Magazine about EMDR & Racial Trauma, and 3) Guidelines for Virtual EMDR Therapy). This EMDR training is EMDRIA-Approved.

To complete the training and receive a Certificate of Completion of this EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Basic Training, you are required to attend and complete in full both the Parts I and II training sessions. Please be sure that when you register for the training, you are able to attend the entire training and have those times protected in your calendar. You must be online (with Zoom) and on the screen for the entire training. If you need to miss any parts of the training, then you will be required to transfer to a new training cohort and pay a transfer fee.

Ten hours of group consultation are required to complete the Virtual EMDR Basic Training. These consultation groups are included in your total cost.

You will sign up for your groups before Part I begins. If you need to reschedule one or more of the groups for which you are registered, you may be required to pay an additional fee to transfer to another consultation group beyond those available for your training cohort.

PRACTICUM EXPERIENCE

During the Part I and Part II training sessions, you will be required to participate in real practice sessions of the EMDR therapy standard protocol with fellow participants, both as clients and as therapists, during which facilitators will be providing support and guidance. As clients, you will select a mildly distressing life experience to focus on and experience the EMDR therapy standard protocol facilitated from fellow training participants. Caution: For participants with untreated trauma histories, there is a possibility that this training may tap into unconsciously held (and previously unknown), highly charged trauma material. If you have had traumatic experiences or a diagnosis that causes you to be concerned about participating in this part of the training at this time, please contact us at emdr@TheRoadLessTraveledCounseling.com before registering so we can discuss your situation and offer support as you consider whether it is the right time for you to participate in this training.

VIDEO RECORDING CONSENT

We will be recording the live training sessions. Participants will be required to keep their video on during the Training, so it is vital that participants present on video with professionalism and awareness. The participant is responsible for their voice and appearance during this time, knowing that it will be recorded and potentially shared with others. 

This means that it’s possible that a participant’s voice, video or image may be seen in the video during the training. If participants ask a question during the training, their question and Elizabeth Legg's answer may be incorporated into online training videos to help other clinicians who may have the same or similar questions.
