Qualifications for Attending

A clinical background is necessary for the effective application of EMDR therapy.  This EMDR Basic Training is designed to mentor participants in integrating EMDR therapy into their current clinical practice.  We believe doing so will facilitate more robust and accurate learning of EMDR theory and procedures, as well as provide meaningful support as participants begin to apply the knowledge and skills gained throughout the training.  Homework assignments demonstrating application of EMDR therapy with clients - including video, audio, or verbatim transcript recordings - are now required by the EMDR International Association, as a part of EMDR Basic Training. Therefore, it is necessary that participants have a current clinical practice in which they are able to begin using EMDR therapy and obtain permission to record clinical sessions. 

Licensed Mental Health Professionals

A copy of the participant's qualifying license must be submitted to the Training Portal under Essentials: Participant Agreement after registration. Registration is not complete until a copy of a current professional license has been received.

• Qualifying medical doctors must be licensed to practice in their state or province.
• Qualifying advanced practice registered nurses must have a Master of Science in Nursing (or higher) with a specialization in psychiatric mental health nursing and must be licensed to practice through their state board or province.

Pre-Licensed Mental Health Professionals

Pre-Licensed Mental Health Professionals must have the approval of their Clinical Supervisor, with the understanding that participants' integration of EMDR skills into clinical practice AND permission to record clinical sessions (video, audio, or verbatim transcript) are essential components of the training.  A copy of a current Clinical Supervisor’s Verification Letter of acknowledgement of the above (including the supervisor's degree and license number) must be submitted to the Training Portal under Essentials: Participant Agreement after registration. Registration is not complete until a copy of the Clinical Supervisor's Verification Letter has been received.

• These are clinicians who are actively pursuing a mental health license through their state board (or province) while working under a licensed supervisor. Some of these license types include associate, intern, limited, provisional, temporary and pre-license.
• Qualifying pre-licensed mental health clinicians must have a master's degree in the mental health field (Counseling, Marriage Family Therapy, Psychology, Psychiatry, Social Work) or related mental health discipline and must be actively pursuing a full license through their state board (or province) while working under a licensed supervisor.
• Individuals who only hold a chemical dependency or substance abuse license are not eligible as these licenses generally do not allow for a mental health scope of practice. 

Graduate Students

Graduate Students must have the approval of their Clinical Supervisor, with the understanding that participants' integration of EMDR skills into clinical practice AND permission to record clinical sessions (video, audio, or verbatim transcript) are essential components of the training.  A copy of a current Clinical Supervisor’s Verification Letter of acknowledgement of the above (including the supervisor's degree and license number) AND a copy of a qualifying graduate transcript must be submitted to the Training Portal under Essentials: Participant Agreement after registration. Registration is not complete until a copy of the Clinical Supervisor's Verification Letter and a copy of a qualifying Graduate Transcript has been received.

• After registering for the training, you will be emailed a link to register for the training on Zoom.  Follow this link and complete the registration, in order to obtain the Zoom Meeting link and password.
• Please do not share the Zoom meeting link and password with anyone outside the training.
• You need to register on Zoom.us and ensure your full name is visible on the screen, in order to allow for attendance tracking. You are welcome to provide your preferred name and pronouns on your Zoom screen. 
• If you would like to familiarize yourself more with Zoom.us, you can go to this FAQ page to get all of your Zoom.us related questions answered.

How to Obtain Training Materials

• Please login to the Training Portal at: https://www.precisionemdrtraining.com/login.
• You must attest to your understanding and agreement to the Participant Agreement and submit all required documentation in the Training Portal under Essentials: Participant Agreement in order to have access to the training materials.
• Training materials will be made available in the Training Portal two weeks in advance of the training. You are encouraged to practice navigating the site and accessing the materials prior to the first day of the training.  Please familiarize yourself with the content, including the Precision EMDR Academy Manual, PowerPoint slides, Timeline of the Training, Timeline of Homework, and available PDF forms. 
• PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE PRINTED ALL FORMS AS INSTRUCTED PRIOR TO EACH TRAINING DAY, AS THESE WILL BE USED IN PRACTICUM. THESE CAN BE FOUND IN THE SECTIONS LABELED “FORMS FOR PRACTICUM” FOR TRAINING DAYS 2-6. THERE IS NO PRACTICUM ON DAY 1 OF THE TRAINING.
• You will have access to the training portal for two weeks after the final Group Consultation.  Please ensure you have downloaded all Training materials before access to the training portal expires.
• Notify us at [email protected] if you need your password reset.

How to Prepare for the Training

• You must have access to a computer or laptop with a built in or external webcam. This computer or laptop must have internet access in order to access a Zoom.us meeting. It may also be a good idea for you to have, if possible, a backup device such as a smartphone – with the Zoom app installed in advance of the training – to use in case of an unexpected drop in the Zoom meeting on your computer. (Note that a Chromebook will not be adequate because we will be using Zoom Breakout Rooms that are not supported by a Chromebook.)
• Ensure your setting, webcam, and internet connection will be sufficient to allow participation in the full training without interruption, with yourself in view in order that attendance may be verified. This training cannot be attended by audio or telephone only. The participants and trainer must be able to see each other.
• The Training (excluding Practicum and Consultation) will be recorded as means of verifying attendance, and the recordings may be used for other training or marketing purposes. If you wish for any video or photographs containing you to not be used for other training or marketing purposes, please decline consent during the registration process, so that we can respect your wishes.
• Ensure you have a private, secluded, quiet place to be set up for the duration of the training that will facilitate you being as fully engaged and present as you would be in a live training. It is essential that the confidentiality of clinical demonstration videos is protected.  You will be in both the client and clinician role during Practicum, so it’s strongly recommended that you choose a location that is equivalent in privacy, physical comfort level, webcam visibility, and internet connection as what you would use for a telemedicine session with a client.
• If you have technical questions, please reach out as soon as possible. We want to help you be confident in the technical aspects in advance of the training, so that your focus can be fully on learning and participation during the training itself.  

Logistics During the Training

• Plan to arrive early for each training day to ensure your connection is working correctly. Each morning of the training, the trainer and/or facilitators will be available 15 minutes prior to the start of the training (30 minutes prior on the first day) to assist trainees with technical problem solving. This time will not be for EMDR therapy training or EMDR Q & A. Should a problem occur, you are welcome to email any technical questions to the team in advance of the training. 
• At the start of our first day of the training we will ask that you verify we have an operational phone number (preferably cell) so that the technical support team may contact you to reestablish your connection if you are disconnected from the live Zoom.us meeting.
• Throughout the training, a staff member facilitator will be available to text for Zoom technical questions.
• During the training you are asked to monitor yourself for your emotional states. Clinical case examples are utilized for your learning. If you find yourself triggered by the examples, remember to use your appropriate coping skills as you would if a client talks about material that disturbs you. We will discuss this more during the training. You will be given the contact numbers for a team member, so that you can reach out to them at any time should you need additional support.
• In the unlikely case that there is a Zoom outage or any other emergency situation that disrupts the training, we will take a brief break to resolve the issue. However, if the issue cannot be resolved in a reasonable period of time, the training will be rescheduled.  You will be kept informed by email and text of any updates should such a situation arise.  

Tips for Using Zoom for the Training

• If you move your mouse down your Zoom screen, you’ll see the controls across the bottom.
• That’s where you can mute yourself, make sure your web-cam is on, send a chat message, etc.
• Please “mute” yourself unless you are participating in a discussion. This helps us not have get background noises and allows everyone to be able to hear.
• Please keep your web-cam on during all live training sessions. That’s the equivalent of “being in the room” for an in-person training.
• If you would like to see the speaker and the PowerPoint slides at the same time, you can right click on the speaker’s face and click Pin; then you will only see the slides and the one face. You can drag the sides of the windows to re-size them if you wish.
• Please have your chat set to “all participants” when you are posting questions – unless it’s something you specifically want to be private and directed only to the instructor.
• In the case that something goes wrong, often re-loading will solve the problem, or re-booting the device. Unless the problem is a weak internet signal, in which case you might want to use your phone signal for access.  

Terms & Conditions

This is a complete EMDR Basic Training approved by the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA), formerly known as Level I and Level II EMDR Basic Training, including the now required 10 hours of Consultation. Participants will learn the EMDR therapy approach, the Standard Eight-Phase EMDR protocol, the Adaptive Information Processing Model, and how to incorporate EMDR therapy into their clinical practice. Participants must attend the full 42 hours of Training AND attend 10 hours of Basic Training Consultation to receive a certificate of completion in EMDR Basic Training. EMDRIA requires participants to complete the entire training including consultation hours within 12 months from their initial start date unless there are extraordinary circumstances.

Continuing Education

Course Description

This course is a complete EMDR Basic Training according to the requirements of the EMDR International Association. The training explains the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model, which is the theoretical foundation of EMDR therapy, the hypothesized mechanisms of action, the extent and limitations of relevant research, and the rationale for fidelity to Standard Protocol. The components and primary goals for each of the 8 Phases of Standard Protocol are explained and practiced via practicum exercises, incorporating the 3 Prongs of past memories, present triggers, and templates for potential future triggers. Attention to a client’s identity, race, and culture are taught as essential components of all Phases and Prongs of EMDR therapy. Strategic methods for history gathering and preparation are presented as means of assessing a client’s readiness for trauma memory reprocessing and guarding against risks associated with EMDR therapy. Worksheets are provided for decoding the connections between a client’s symptoms, triggers, and trauma memory networks, as well as for creating comprehensive and symptom-focused target sequence plans based on these connections. Important considerations are presented regarding the application of EMDR therapy to a range of clinical complexities, including varying diagnoses and the developmental stages of childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Concepts throughout the training are explained via lecture accompanied by detailed slides, which include extensive use of graphics to illustrate key points. Integration of interventions into clinical practice is supported by worksheets, checklists, rubrics, practicum exercises, and video demonstrations.  (Introductory Level)
