Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Consulting involves guiding clinicians through the use of EMDR, a therapeutic approach used to help individuals process traumatic memories and alleviate distress. EMDR consulting typically focuses on providing consultation to therapists who are either training in or expanding their expertise in EMDR. It is an important part of ensuring that EMDR therapy is applied safely and effectively in clinical practice. Consultees must have completed or currently participating in Basic EMDR Training with an EMDRIA-approved trainer.
For those hoping to become a Certified EMDR Therapist, a consultant in training can provide 15 of the 20 required consultation hours.
