EMDR Consultation
To support you at every stage
As an EMDRIA approved consultant-in-training I offer consultation that supports you whether you’re just getting started with EMDR or working toward certification and facing more complex clinical questions.
I believe consultation should feel supportive and you can expect a non-judgmental space where you can bring your stuck points, your uncertainties, and share your wins. My goal is to help you feel more confident in using EMDR in your practice in a way that feels authentic to you and your style.
I especially love supporting clinicians who are:
New to EMDR and wanting support building foundational skills. (I can sign off on foundational hours through the Touchstone Institute’s training)
Working toward certification and looking for more guidance with complex cases or feeling stuck with certain clinical presentations
Some of my areas of focus with EMDR are:
Perinatal mental health
Attachment trauma and early childhood trauma, complex PTSD
Attachment wounds and early childhood trauma resurfacing in the perinatal period and/or in parenting, cycle breakers
Sexual trauma and abuse
EMDR extended sessions and intensives
Incorporating parts work with EMDR
Medical trauma and chronic illness
Traumatic grief
Pricing:
$50 per hour of group consultation
$75 per hour of individual consultation
Consultation groups for newer EMDR therapists
This small group is designed for EMDR therapists who are newer to the model or returning after time away and want to rebuild confidence with the basics. We’ll revisit the standard protocol, strengthen your understanding of each phase, and offer space to explore how EMDR fits with your clinical style and caseload.
*If you are training with the Touchstone Institute this group is great following part 1 and/or part 2 of your foundational training.
Individual Consultation
Individual consultation offers a supportive space to slow down, ask questions, and make sense of what’s feeling unclear in your EMDR work—whether that’s understanding protocol nuances, navigating complex client presentations, or building confidence in your ability to apply EMDR in a way that feels authentic to you. Individual consultation is tailored to your clinical style, your caseload, and your pace.
Contractual Agreement for Consultation
Welcome! I look forward to our consultation work together!
The purpose of this contract is to establish a clear understanding of the expectations of consultation. My role, as Consultant-in-training, is to help you, the Consultee, understand the technical aspects of integrating EMDR into the overall case conceptualization and treatment plan, as well as linking you to resources that may be helpful in your EMDR work with specific cases.
There are several different reasons a consultee seeks consultation. Prior to beginning our work together, please let me know what your intentions for consultation are.
_To complete the 10 hours of consultation to meet EMDR basic/ foundational training requirements through the Touchstone Institute
_To achieve the EMDRIA Certification (EMDRIA currently requires a minimum of 20 hours of consultation, 10 of which must be Individual Consultation, prior to applying for Certification). As a consultant-in-training I can provide a maximum of 15 of your required 20 hours towards certification.
Expectations of Consultant:
I am an EMDRIA Approved Consultant-in-training and a Certified EMDR Therapist.
Consultation is educational. The goal is for the consultant is to assist consultees with increasing skills and competency in utilizing EMDR. I will do my best to understand each consultee’s specific goals of consultation and will assist in helping you meet those goals. I will make efforts to provide a safe and supportive learning environment, encouraging your growth and confidence in your EMDR practice.
Consultation is not supervision. Consultation should not substitute for foundational psychotherapy skills. Consultation focuses on mastery of standard EMDR therapy and integrating EMDR into your practice. As a consultant, I do not hold liability for how you practice
I will document and track our time spent in consultation, and I encourage consultee to do the same. Following each consultation session, I will email you validation of your consultation time. Please keep this for your records.
I encourage Consultees to seek consultation from other EMDRIA Approved Consultants especially if they have a specialty area that fits the Consultee’s needs.
I will keep abreast of current trends and changes with EMDR and trauma treatment. I will provide Consultees with new information and accommodate your needs, within my scope of knowledge. I will refer to other consultants if your needs are beyond my scope.
I actively promote diversity, equity, and inclusivity and celebrate all forms of families. I welcome the unique contribution that you bring to the consultation process and strive to create a space where you feel comfortable speaking openly and asking anything.
Expectations of Consultee:
Consultee is expected to come to consultation prepared to present case material, complete with consultee’s notes on that case. Cases will be presented using the case presentation format. Consultee is required to maintain confidentiality on cases shared.
Video-taped sessions of your work may be necessary.
For consultees working toward EMDRIA Certification:
If you are seeking consultation toward EMDRIA Certification, I will be evaluating your proficiency and fidelity to the standard EMDR therapy and your awareness of situations in which modifications to standard EMDR therapy are necessary in order to safely and effectively treat the client.
I will write a letter of recommendation only if consultee has acquired the skills and knowledge base to be certified and can demonstrate this. I will provide an open forum for us to discuss issues as they arise especially if consultee is having difficulty.
Payment & Cancellation Policy:
48-hour notice of cancellation is required. If cancelling prior to 48 hours of your scheduled time, your payment may be applied to another individual or group consultation.
Payment is required at the time of booking consultation. Payment for consultation services assumes that you have read and agree to the terms in this contract.
