Expanding on the powerful content from EMDR Therapy Basic Training, we are offering a very focused KIDS and TEENS-centric event, EMDR Therapy Basic Training with Supplemental Information for Children and Adolescents (Weekend 1 and 2).  This training is designed for licensed mental health practitioners who treat kids and teens in a clinical setting. Through the use of children video sessions and client case examples, this training will highlight how to use EMDR therapy with developmentally appropriate adaptations for kids and teens, while also including information for use with adults. Upon completion of Weekend 1, Weekend 2 and the required 10 hours of consultation, clinicians will be able to treat children, adolescents, as well as adults, with EMDR therapy.

EMDR Therapy 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 addresses a considerable range of presenting complaints for all ages, including PTSD, depression, anxiety, phobias, excessive grief, somatic conditions and addictions.  As an integrative psychotherapy approach, EMDR is compatible with all contemporary paradigms including, psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, experiential, family systems, play therapy and sand tray.

EMDR therapy is guided by the Adaptive Information Processing model which addresses the unprocessed memories that appear to set the basis for a wide range of dysfunction. Since EMDR Therapy is a client centered therapy it is not only helpful with adults but is particularly useful with children and teenagers who may communicate more through actions than words.
