This is a 2 day, comprehensive review of the nuts and bolts of EMDR. Learning takes place through live didactic lecture and client videos to demonstrate key concepts and techniques. Participants will review the history of EMDR and the model of adaptive information processing. We will review important concepts for establishing case conceptualization and inspiring EMDR treatment plans. The 8 phases of EMDR will be reviewed throughout the course. Participants will learn how to assess client readiness for EMDR reprocessing and techniques for stabilization and preparation (safe/calm place, containment, resourcing). We will learn how to create an EMDR treatment plan, how to desensitize a target, how to install a positive cognition, and how to complete the body scan. Participants will also review interweaves and how to apply interweaves to blocked processing. We will discuss how to close an incomplete target, how to re-engage in incomplete target, and how to re-evaluate the work to date. Trainees will learn how to implement constricted processing in the forms of EMD and EMDr, along with how to install a future template. We will briefly touch on specialty populations including EMDR with children, complex dissociation, addictions and veterans. 

Join us for practice time!

You can also sign up to spend time in supported practice with colleagues and Kase & CO faculty. After training each day, elect to attend a 90 minute practice session where you can get hands on experience with the skills and techniques reviewed in lecture. This is an elective to add on when you register.

Sign up to practice on Day 1, Day 2 for $60 each….OR…register for both days for a discounted rate of $100. That’s 3 hours of practice time to master your skills and get back in the EMDR game!
