Quiz Outcomes

• 1.
  EMDR Basic Training

  EMDR psychotherapy originated as a trauma therapy that is now supported by copious amounts of empirical research. As EMDR has continued to be studied, it has become clear how it is helpful for a variety of issues that one might experience. This includes anxiety, addictions, low self-esteem, and personality disorders. Becoming an EMDR therapist provides you with an entire new skillset that gets clients life changing results (which definitely changes the therapist's life too). Finally experience clients healing beyond the surface. The whole reason you got into this field!
• 2.
  EMDR & Complex Disorders

  You already have a good understanding of addiction and dissociation and want to hone your skill for working with psychological defenses associated with personality disorders. You need help differentiating between the source of various psychological defenses and how to get underneath them using EMDR with different protocols. You are tired of feeling that you aren't making life changing progress with these complex disorders.
• 3.
  Introduction to Dissociation & Parts with EMDR

  You are working with clients with Complex PTSD and EMDR is falling apart. Perhaps the client is getting worse or maybe they are making minimal progress. Their self-hatred runs deep and they have a hard time emotionally holding their painful experiences in session. You want to learn how to treat dissociative disorders from the ground up. This course takes you from, "Remind me what dissociation is..." all the way to competence in treating DID. Case examples and demonstrations paint all the pictures. Our most popular training!
• 4.
  EMDR with OCD & Phobias

  This training teaches you how to apply the gold standard of treatment to both OCD & Phobias- which is the combination of ExRP and EMDR. This training teaches you how to use ExRP with clients and demonstrates the interweave of EMDR. Case examples and demonstrations help make concepts tangible and clear.
• 5.
  EMDR with Addictive Disorders

  You specialize in treating clients with addiction such as substance use disorder, eating disorders, self-harm, sex/love addiction, etc. You are tired of watching clients experience the whack-a-mole effect where they switch from one addiction to another and wanting to use EMDR to go to the root causes of the addiction. Tons of case examples make this course very popular and has been presented at EMDRIA symposiums as a featured topic!
• 6.
  EMDR & Eating Disorders

  You want a comprehensive and thorough approach to treating eating disorders with EMDR. This training is facilitated by both Dr. Lauren Kiser and Dr. Dalene Forester, both Certified Eating Disorder Specialists who have devoted their entire career to treating eating disorders with EMDR. This course provides resources for your practice that go beyond just EMDR including when to refer clients, release forms and other intake documents to make sure you are top notch on your practice plans!
• 7.
  EMDR Refresher Course

  You took EMDR Basic Training and either are feeling a little rusty on some of the key elements, are not having success with what you learned or perhaps feel that your previous training experience did not sufficiently equip you in the way you hoped. This course will go over updates to the protocols and be sure to cover the most important components of the Basic Training experience in a condensed refresher course!
