The Program:
The 53 hour EMDRIA approved curriculum assures participants the highest standard of training and includes 10 hours of group consultation. Both Part 1 and 2 training involve lectures, demonstrations, video and individual supervised practice of EMDR.
The primary goals of the training:
- To provide a high caliber EMDRIA approved training so participants learn to use EMDR appropriately, effectively and safely in a variety of applications.
- To offer a personal interactive experience.
- To meet individual trainees needs, provide personal EMDR supervision and consultation.
This program offers the complete standard EMDR training (revised in 2007) as approved by the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA). Some additional protocols are incorporated in Parts 1 & 2. Because group size is limited, participants receive individual attention that is simply not possible in larger EMDR trainings. Ongoing contact is provided through Two 3 hour group consultation sessions between Part 1 & Part 2 and one 4 hour group consultation session after Part 2. Kathy and Brynah will provide help with any questions, concerns, or difficulties therapists may encounter as they begin to practice EMDR.
Upon completion of both Part 1 & Part 2 and 10 hours' consultation, participants receive a Certificate of Attendance recognized by EMDRIA. EMDR training workshops are for clinical purposes only. They do not qualify participants to train others in EMDR.

As an EMDRIA Approved Consultant and Trainer she supervises a number of clinicians working in both private practice and agency settings.
Both Kathy & Brynah have extensive experience with a variety of EMDR applications. Professional development in the field of EMDR has deepened their appreciation of the depth and breath of EMDR processing.

Both Brynah and Kathy have done peak performance EMDR with members of Canadian national teams. Some of their specialized training will be introduced in their training curriculum.
