EMDR for Grief & Loss


While grief and loss are normal human experiences, they can often cause us immense suffering and can be challenging to work through. EMDR is an effective therapy for those working through grief and loss. EMDR can support the organic process of grief, help clients work through blocks in the process, and can aid in the alleviation of complex symptoms. EMDR may also prevent the development of more complicated issues and diagnoses as related to grief and loss experiences.

This 6 hour advanced EMDR training will teach clinicians advanced skills for working with grief, loss, and mourning.
Join Dr. Crystal Wildes, PsyD, EMDR Consultant, and Rebecca Kase & CO faculty member, for this half day workshop. This course can be attended live or taken on-demand after the live event.
