Can anyone take this Advance Training?

All participants must have completed an EMDRIA Approved Basic Training in EMDR Therapy to participate in this training. 

What is the structure of the training schedule?

This four hour training integrates lecture, clincial examples, and small group practice exercises.

What if I have a scheduling conflict for a portion of the training?

EMDRIA requirements state that participants must attend all portions of the training and actively participate in all supervised practice exercises  in order to receive a certificate of completion for this training. Similarly, EETC  requires participation and completion of all program activities to earn APA sponsored CE credit.

I am an Associate who wants to register. Does my supervisor need to be EMDR Trained?

 If you are not yet licensed, your supervisor need not be trained in EMDR Therapy, but should be supportive of your using EMDR Therapy.

Most of my clients have complex, co-occurring conditions. Will this training help me work with them?

Yes! The EMDR Interweaves curriculum at EETC is organized to address the fact that most clinicians see relatively few cases of single incident trauma and, instead, see mostly complex cases with co-occurring conditions.

As such, this Advanced Training at EETC builds on the knowledge and skills learned in Basic Training to give participants the confidence to successfully utilized EMDR Interweaves during EMDR reprocessing with complex cases.

Is there any known commerical support, or conflict of interest, for this program or organzation?
