Participants must attend all training days and actively participate in all supervised practice exercises and group consultation sessions.

In addition, participants who attend the training in full and complete all the appropriate evaluation forms will receive CE credits. Any participant missing more than 15 minutes at any time during the training will not receive CE credits nor a certificate of completion.

To understand your options to complete the training, should you elect to withdraw after partially completing the training, you are invited to read the Transfer Agreement on the Registration Forms page.

You must plan to read in their entirety and thoroughly study portions of both texts:

This is a rigorous, clinically focused, and academic training. All participants are expected to complete the required readings before each Training Session and allot time to complete homework assignments between each Training Session. All participants must prepare written or typed summaries about their actual clinical use and experiences of specific procedures. Specific procedures are taught and practiced in the training. In addition, participants must complete and discuss structured self-evaluation forms about their actual clinical experiences and must be prepared to present their case material for consultation.

This training includes extensive experiential practice.

You must be prepared to work on personal issues in these practice sessions. Please note the experiential practice portion of the training is for training purposes and is not meant to replace personal psychotherapy.

Participants who are not willing or able to participate in experiential work on stressful life experiences should not apply. If you are struggling from illness, trauma, life stressors, or are not emotionally, mentally, or medically stable, you should not take the training at this time.

As disturbing material can emerge during practice sessions, you should be prepared to seek private treatment at your own expense if the need arises.

These issues are also clearly stated in the Participant Agreement Form on the Registration Forms page. Please read this agreement carefully before signing it and submitting your registration package.

This training is focused on the application of EMDR Therapy for the treatment of disorders related to trauma and neglect. Participants will be required to discuss their clinical experiences in applying what they learn over the course of the training program.

Please make sure your Curriculum Vitae reflects your clinical experience. You may enclose a letter if you wish to explain your clinical experience and current practice setting.

Our goal is to ensure all participants have sufficient education and clinical experience to begin applying EMDR Therapy over the course of the training and that they have access to a clinical setting where the use of EMDR Therapy would be appropriate and possible.

Clinicians with few opportunities to use EMDR Therapy in their clinical setting over the course of the training program will not derive much benefit from the training.

With the small group format for practice exercises, such lack of practice within your clinical setting may negatively impact the learning experience of others. Please consider this when you make application for the training.

You should have at least two or more clinical case records available to discuss and to work with during the course of this training.
