This course is intended to be a very comprehensive starting point giving you everything you need to learn about using EMDR. And as a licensed professional, you are responsible for making decisions on your scope of practice, comfort level, and ability to apply therapeutic techniques with clients. Our trainers designed this program so you can start using all the valuable tools from Phases 1 and 2 they share right away with clients — enhancing your practice even if you never take another step toward EMDR mastery. However, our trainers stress the importance of practice and ongoing consultation hours with an experienced EMDR practitioner if you plan on utilizing Phases 3 to 8 to avoid common pitfalls and ensure you are implementing safely and effectively.

Whether you're looking for some powerful tools you can use right away or taking the first step in a journey to becoming an EMDR-certified therapist, this course has it all!

Our experts have put together a course that integrates didactic lectures with practical step-by-step, and session-by-session instruction with various clients, disorders, and types of trauma.

And as a special bonus, you have immediate access to an incredible bonus training and Arielle Schwartz's award-winning book on complex trauma!

EMDR provides a clinical roadmap to compassionately explore and treat your clients' trauma without re-triggering pain that can de-rail treatment or even cause clients to withdraw from therapy. Importantly, EMDR is one of the most scientifically validated and evidenced-based trauma treatments ever developed.

Don't just take it from us, EMDR is one of the most effective trauma treatments by internationally respected trauma treatment facilities. In fact, EMDR has the highest recommendation across most clinical practice guidelines, including the Veterans Affairs/Department of Defense (VA/DoD) Clinical Practice Guideline for Management of PTSD, the International Society for Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS), United Kingdom's National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, and Australian National Health and Medical Research Council. The American Psychological Association (APA) gave EMDR a conditional rating.

You're most of the way there. These 43+ hours fulfill all didactic requirements to become a Certified EMDR Clinician (EMDR-C) through Evergreen Certifications.
