National Institute for the Psychotherapies

The Integrative Trauma Program of the National Institute for the Psychotherapies Presents:EMDR BASIC TRAINING COURSETrainer:Judy Cabeceiras, LMFTDescriptionWhat is EMDR Therapy? Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) is a comprehensive psychotherapy that accelerates the treatment of a wide range of pathologies and self-esteem issues related to disturbing events and present life conditions. This interactional, standardized approach has been empirically tested in over 20 randomized controlled studies with trauma patients and hundreds of published case reports evaluating a considerable range of presenting complaints including, depression, anxiety, phobias, excessive grief, somatic conditions and addictions and compulsive disorders. EMDR Therapy is guided by the Adaptive Information Processing model which hypothesizes that unprocessed memories appear to set the basis for a wide range of dysfunction. A number of neurophysiological studies have documented the rapid post-treatment EMDR therapy effects.How is the training set up? Trainees will learn via lecture, video, demonstrations, Q &amp; A sessions, role play demonstrations, small group exercises and supervised practice sessions. Each participant will experience EMDR as both clinician and client through two training modules. The Basic EMDR Training is Approved by the EMDR International Association (www.emdria.org) and uses an innovative format designed to lead the participants in a sequential learning experience emphasizing conceptual clarity, procedural details, and skill development using lecture, discussions drawn from actual EMDR therapy sessions, video clips of EMDR sessions and supervised practicum. This training also provides the additional, required 10 hours of basic training consultation, to provide you with support as you integrate EMDR therapy into your clinical practice.This training offers you the opportunity to learn how to provide EMDR therapy to your clients online or in person by practicing it’s implementation using both formats.
