hi everybody I want to share with you a
0:02
little bit about choosing an EMDR basic
0:04
training I know there are a lot of basic
0:06
trainings out there and I want to talk
0:08
to you a little bit about why I really
0:10
feel proud of the training that I'm
0:12
running compared to some of the other
0:14
basic training curriculums for EMDR
0:16
therapy so I've been honored to be
0:18
mentored by Dr Andrew Leeds and his
0:21
training which I am licensed to use
0:23
covers essential EMDR Concepts including
0:26
affect tolerance resource development
0:29
trauma repr processing it integrates
0:31
attachment Theory which I have not seen
0:34
in other trainings uh affect scripts
0:36
emotional self-regulation capacities uh
0:39
we learn and teach how to have in-depth
0:42
case formulation so the curriculum
0:45
emphasizes case formulation treatment
0:47
planning addressing complex trauma and
0:50
neglect it provides specific strategies
0:53
for working with adults who experience
0:55
childhood instability and attachment
0:56
issues we have a hybrid option that no
0:59
other training my knowledge offers so
1:01
for weekend one you can be in person or
1:04
online and so we have the opportunity to
1:06
connect get to know one another feel
1:08
more safely uh connected and attached in
1:10
real person and then it makes the
1:12
transition to online a little bit more
1:14
comfortable because we've established a
1:16
relationship his training offers an
1:18
evidence-based approach so it aligns
1:21
with research on optimal learning this
1:23
is something that's different I taught
1:24
for the center for excellence and EMDR
1:26
therapy I taught for the uh EMDR
1:29
Institute and a humanitarian assistance
1:31
program I've been doing MDR for 10 years
1:34
now and so what I love about our model
1:36
is that we divide it into multiple
1:38
sessions that are only 2 days long and
1:40
that way we have better retention and
1:42
integration of the material so we're not
1:44
asking you to stay as attended for three
1:46
four 5 days which helps to keep your
1:48
retention of the material uh the
1:51
supervised practicum includes 20 hours
1:53
of uh of time with a supervisor which
1:56
gives you hands-on experience and skill
1:58
development and then one thing that we
2:00
offer that is really awesome is that all
2:03
of our 10 hours of required consultation
2:05
by mrea standers are done within the
2:08
training timeline and it's crucial for
2:11
refining our EMDR skills and addressing
2:13
our clinical challenges but we do that
2:15
in the 8 days so you don't have to meet
2:17
outside of that time it's all done once
2:19
we're done with our eight days of
2:20
training Dr Leeds is an author of uh a
2:24
guide to standard EMDR therapy protocols
2:26
he's internationally renowned and um
2:28
respected and this is one of the
2:31
resources that is required for uh my
2:33
training and so uh we get our own author
2:37
of the curriculum and a really awesome
2:40
book along with the program uh there's a
2:42
specific focus on dissociation let's
2:45
face it PTSD is a dissociative disorder
2:48
and so this course offers a lot of
2:50
information on dissociation and provides
2:53
valuable insights for working with
2:55
really complex cases many trainings
2:57
would require you to have additional
2:59
advant training in order to work with
3:01
complex cases uh and so this we offer it
3:04
all together the other thing that I
3:06
really love is that Dr leads emphasizes
3:08
treating the whole person so we consider
3:11
attachment the relationship affect
3:13
regulation and of course the thorough
3:15
trauma history and so we want to make
3:18
sure that the Human Experience and
3:20
relationship as the therapist is so
3:23
critical and we have a very relational
3:25
approach to make sure we include the
3:27
attachment experience for the client
3:30
of course you get CES where APA approved
3:33
which is amazing uh 40 CES for your
3:36
license renewal uh as well as it's an
3:39
mrea approved training so a little bit
3:41
about me I have been like I said an EMDR
3:44
therapist for over 10 years now and I've
3:46
trained for many different people I feel
3:49
very fortunate to have been mentored by
3:51
some of the greatest people in our
3:53
industry and I'm so grateful for where I
3:56
have been able to uh come bridging both
3:59
my hisorical teaching experience I was
4:01
an English teacher for 15 years before
4:03
Rec careering as a therapist and so I
4:05
feel lucky to be able to bridge those
4:07
two skill sets together and so I hope
4:09
that this helps you choose an EMDR
4:11
training uh there are many out there and
4:14
I hope this helps you understand why my
4:17
training is a is a great option and it
4:19
will leave you very satisfied and
4:21
prepared with your EMDR experience so
