*Please note: this training course takes place over 6 days and 2 Skype sessions. All components must be attended in order to receive CE credits.
National Institute for the Psychotherapies and Big Oak Psychotherapy Training Institute are co-sponsoring a Winter 2019 EMDRIA*-approved EMDR Basic Training and consultation for the integration of this highly effective approach into clinical practice. As an EMDR Institute Regional Basic Trainer, Dr. Karen Alter-Reid uses the EMDR Institute curriculum to provide clinicians with the knowledge and skills to use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy with a broad range of clients and clinical presentations. Trainings are provided in small groups of 24 or fewer. The training is a six day, two-weekend program, plus two 2-hour consultation groups, extended over six weeks. Training includes the traditional Weekends 1 and 2, as well as all ten required hours of consultation. Extending the training format helps participants integrate the lecture material, conceptualize where to begin with specific clients and incorporate the standardized protocol into their practice. Each of the two weekends will include lecture, consultation, and experiential components.
This course is designed for licensed mental health practitioners who treat adults and children in a private practice or other clinical setting.  Participants must have an active psychotherapy caseload so that they can begin to integrate and utilize EMDR therapy in their practices during the six-week training period.
TRAINING DATES: January 25th, 26th, and 27th and February 22nd, 23rd, and 24th
4 of the 10 consultation hours will occur during the January and February training weekends. The remaining 6 hours will occur in live or Skype groups on
