They train other therapists in EMDR and have demonstrated their competency to a governing committee. Accredited Consultants are therapists who have demonstrated higher levels of experience and competency, including supervising and accrediting other EMDR therapists. EMDR Consultants-in-Training are experienced and accredited EMDR practitioners who are now working towards becoming an EMDR Europe Consultant. Such supervisors may offer reduced cost EMDR supervision sessions whilst they are completing their consultant training. Although, the hours of supervision they provide cannot count towards your own EMDR practitioner accreditation requirements, they can provide invaluable support for those clinicians new to EMDR therapy. Accredited Practitioners are therapists who have been supervised in their EMDR practice beyond the basic training and demonstrated their competence to an EMDR Consultant. EMDR Therapists have completed all parts of an accredited EMDR foundation training and they use EMDR therapy alongside their core professional skills. EMDR Therapists in training are accredited with one of the professional associations deemed acceptable by EMDR Europe. They are currently completing the training components of an EMDR accredited training course. Such therapists may offer reduced cost EMDR sessions whilst they are completing their training. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/bd5f2e90-169d-4f90-a853-dcdf2011ecf9/EMDR+Training+-+View+Eligibility.png Get Listed -

IMPORTANCE OF WORKING WITH CLIENTS It is very important to stress that ALL delegates must have access to 3 suitable clients during the training. You should have at least one in mind to begin using EMDR with straight after your Part 1 training. This is so you can begin using EMDR therapy over the training parts and receive clinical supervision from the trainers on these cases during the training days. The delegate is asked to work with at least 3 clients by the end of Part 4. This has to include clearing / treating 1 trauma / distressing memory per client. This way the delegate can experience all the phases of the protocol with each of these 3 clients. Your certificate will be withheld if you do not work with your 3 clients by the time you get to Part 4, and your clinical supervision hours will not count if you do not bring a clinical supervision question. 3 clients is the absolute minimum acceptable to gain the necessary experience of the model. The more clients you can work with will really help embed the approach within your therapy toolbox before completing the training. Delegates who struggle to work with 3 clients also have a much higher chance of not continue using EMDR therapy post-training. If you only work with children these should be adolescents and emotionally mature older children. This is generic training and modifications to adapt to working with children will not be covered in the basic training, therefore, please make sure you choose clients that you will be able to deliver the standard protocol. It is then good practise and highly recommended that you then attend an EMDR Accredited Child Training following your basic accredited training if you regularly work with this client group. Some delegates find that they work with only complex trauma clients or young children. This can often be a clear barrier when choosing your clients during the training. We do strongly recommend that you start with the most simple clients possible whilst you are a trainee. However, if you only work with complex cases then we will support you as best we can if making modifications because, like any psychotherapy training, you cannot complete the course without using it in your clinical practice. We strongly advise you to consider this point and make suitable arrangements for accessing clients before booking, because it is the most important aspect of the training. https://www.emdracademy.co.uk/charitable-work daily 0.75 2023-09-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1632864487207-04VCWJDEVCKLJ37MGBUB/Trauma+Aid+UK.PNG Charitable Work - Trauma Aid UK https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1660042619695-HK4UBTS2WL50BQLB2TFR/Egypt+trauma+aid+2.jpg Charitable Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1660042619717-RCK8JT685R0TE0V8SD6Z/Egypt+Trauma+Aid+3.jpg Charitable Work - Trauma Aid UK in Cairo https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1660042620508-UFLTFY995A1XBTOT7SKY/Egypt+trauma+aid+1.jpg Charitable Work https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1632863810139-CQSXDN6E58RKREE2MRA8/EMDR+Association.PNG Charitable Work - EMDR Association of UK https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1632865753422-VE81MILQUBAFYKZ2QAK4/Bob+Scholarship.jpg Charitable Work - Bob Morris Scholarship https://www.emdracademy.co.uk/bob-morris-scholarship daily 0.75 2024-08-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1633362392788-IAZQO0ZIHY1R1GRJA8AR/wedding+%281%29.jpeg Bob Morris Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1633362918987-8BZIR8PBPAJRNRST28JS/with+D.jpeg Bob Morris Scholarship https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/f5fb2320-2934-40b9-b0eb-daf903ca9397/Designer.png Bob Morris Scholarship - Nicola James “I’m honoured to have received such a wonderful course as a reward for winning the Morris Prize” My name is Nicola James, I am a Petty Officer Mental Health Nurse in the Royal Navy where I have Served since 2004.

However, EMDR can be utilised in the treatment of many other mental health conditions in addition to PTSD. EMDR can provide you with an alternative clinical tool that could create results where other therapy approaches have failed. https://www.emdracademy.co.uk/emdr-basic-training-uk daily 0.75 2026-02-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/ba142a16-8a94-4fbb-b41e-2c7a9b382796/EMDR+Training+-+View+Availability.png EMDR Basic Training-Course Info - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/bd5f2e90-169d-4f90-a853-dcdf2011ecf9/EMDR+Training+-+View+Eligibility.png EMDR Basic Training-Course Info - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/4acd9206-8ada-4551-b6f4-060b3a4956cb/EMDR+Training+-+Invitation+to+book.png EMDR Basic Training-Course Info - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1603185497491-B0QUKGH4Z3GNOK7OQKFK/EMDR+LOGO+NEW.PNG EMDR Basic Training-Course Info https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1603185521424-YEKWHNGNLU1UGTB4B3CG/logo-emdr-europeart.png EMDR Basic Training-Course Info https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1603185537395-4JSB84DGXTVI2TVXQ7DN/EMDR+UK+LOGO+NEW.PNG EMDR Basic Training-Course Info https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1585823465378-28W3YLLIVIES3T6JV8I8/EMDR+GURU+Part+3.jpg EMDR Basic Training-Course Info - Accredited Training In order to reduce our carbon footprint, all certificates will be issued in a PDF format.

You should have at least one in mind to begin using EMDR with straight after your Part 1 training. This is so you can begin using EMDR therapy over the training parts and receive clinical supervision from the trainers on these cases during the training days. The delegate is asked to work with at least 3 clients by the end of Part 4. This has to include clearing / treating 1 trauma / distressing memory per client. This way the delegate can experience all the phases of the protocol with each of these 3 clients. Your certificate will be withheld if you do not work with your 3 clients by the time you get to Part 4, and your clinical supervision hours will not count if you do not bring a clinical supervision question. 3 clients is the absolute minimum acceptable to gain the necessary experience of the model. The more clients you can work with will really help embed the approach within your therapy toolbox before completing the training. Delegates who struggle to work with 3 clients also have a much higher chance of not continue using EMDR therapy post-training. If you only work with children these should be adolescents and emotionally mature older children. This is generic training and modifications to adapt to working with children will not be covered in the basic training, therefore, please make sure you choose clients that you will be able to deliver the standard protocol. It is then good practise and highly recommended that you then attend an EMDR Accredited Child Training following your basic accredited training if you regularly work with this client group. Some delegates find that they work with only complex trauma clients or young children. This can often be a clear barrier when choosing your clients during the training. We do strongly recommend that you start with the most simple clients possible whilst you are a trainee. However, if you only work with complex cases then we will support you as best we can if making modifications because, like any psychotherapy training, you cannot complete the course without using it in your clinical practice. We strongly advise you to consider this point and make suitable arrangements for accessing clients before booking, because it is the most important aspect of the training. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1581354018957-9U5UDF87ZQBCS8CZP0DO/meeting-1002800_1280.jpg WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THE DELEGATE? - Clinical Supervision Our EMDR training includes 10 hours of group clinical supervision from an EMDR consultant. In Part 1 we provide 2 hours group supervision to help commence your EMDR clinical work as soon as possible following the training. There are often questions regarding working with clients and you must bring them to Clinical supervision time on Part 2 (4 hours) and Part 4 (4 hours). The below clinical supervision instructions are very important, please read the following: - If you do not present a client that you have processed a memory with during the clinical supervision time in Parts 2 and 4 then this cannot count towards your supervision hours. As such you will not meet the course completion criteria as set by EMDR Europe. - If you have not achieved this and want to continue with the course or complete it you must arrange your own clinical supervision hours from an EMDR Europe Accredited Consultant at your own expense. - If you did not get to processing by the time of Part 2, then you would need to source 4 hours extra supervision from an EMDR Consultant. If you still have not moved to processing with your clients by Part 4 then you would need to source 8 hours EMDR consultant supervision. This can be group or individual but has to be with an EMDR Europe Accredited Consultant and involve discussing all phases of the 8 Phase EMDR Therapy protocol during these hours. - If you have commenced into the trauma confrontation phases with your 3 clients (minimum) during the training parts, then you do not have to source additional supervision but many delegates find this useful. We discuss this during each part of the training, along with recommendations post-training. There are no written assessments during the training, but full course participation is required. This is taking part in practicals, where you will work on some of your own personal memories and practice delivering EMDR to a partner/triad. An important point we want to stress to delegates is that we strongly encourage you to find an EMDR Consultant to supervise you once you have finished the training. If you work with complex cases we would encourage you to find an EMDR Consultant during the training https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/8b813d1d-dd29-4a5b-a104-12295dcf65c4/ask-g7bdf2404a_640.jpg WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THE DELEGATE? - Practical Sessions: Own Memories The delegate must prepare your own personal memories to work on during the practicums. These practicals are an essential part of the whole training. However, we ask you to choose your memories carefully. This is so that you get a real experience of EMDR on your own material, but also that the material is manageable for you to work on within a training environment amongst others delegates. Sometimes old memories have more emotional charge than we first expect when we do EMDR. We strongly advise you think about this carefully before you attend this course, as there won’t be much time to consider this at length during the course. You are expected to prepare for Part 1: You must prepare a minimum of 2 memories of your own personal material - you CANNOT role play this. These memories should be at a current subjective unit of distress (SUD) level of around 4-5 out of 10 (where 0 is neutral and 10 is the highest distress 3 is too low, and 7 is too high). It should be an old distressing life event that still holds some emotional charge. Avoid memories that involve close family members and please not a current anxiety or phobia (save this for Part 3). Examples are RTAs, accidents, injuries, illnesses, school experiences including mid bullying, bad clinical experiences, memories of problems at work (managerial conflicts), death of pets, past relationship difficulties (as long as not too serious), negative comments from colleagues/ friends, social humiliation memories, childbirth difficulties etc. These are examples and not exhaustive. Avoid memories that involve close family members and please not a current anxiety or phobia (save this for Part 3). Delegates often bring memories related to their CBT/professional training, challenges such as recording for tape review, giving presentations, or stressful job interviews. Additionally, if relevant, childbirth trauma with a positive outcome could be explored. Often, as you progress through the training and engage in your first EMDR practicum session, more memories become apparent for training scenarios. Supervised Live experience is one of the most important and rewarding parts of the training. You are expected to prepare for Part 3: There will be 2 practical sessions during your Part 3. You will work on another memory / issue that will be utilising an EMDR protocol of your choice, which is chosen during the training. These memories should be at a current subjective unit of distress (SUD) level of around 4-5 out of 10 (where 0 is neutral and 10 is the highest distress 3 is too low, and 7 is too high). It should be an old distressing life event that still holds some emotional charge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/e8d0e89c-8870-4a52-8f91-57be8d8f6c23/face-shield-g8e5654d1e_640.jpg WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THE DELEGATE? - Health considerations Please do get in touch with us if you are pregnant. This is because you work on some of your own memories during the course which may increase your emotions and you may find upsetting or cause distress. We sometimes have delegates that are pregnant and attend the course. We advise those that they do so purely at their own risk because they will still have to work on their own material during the course as an essential part of the training. If they still attend we then advise them to work with easier / safer memories. Please also inform the trainer prior to the training if you suffer with vertigo, inner ear problems, migraines or epilepsy. Our EMDR Accredited training is an intense, but hugely rewarding, course so please prepare the above to help you make the most of your training experience. The EMDR Academy reserve the right to remove you from the course and refund your fees for remaining parts if they deem that you are not suitable for the training. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/7298e661-02c4-47b2-a3af-87d335736fa3/heart-7168781_640.png WHAT IS EXPECTED OF THE DELEGATE? - Working with Children During Standard EMDR training, trainees are expected to gain experience using the standard EMDR protocol between the delivery of Part 1 and subsequent parts of the training, before more complex material is introduced. Where possible, trainees are encouraged to begin by working with adult clients, typically for their first one to three cases, as this supports consolidation of the standard protocol. If access to adult clients is not available within a trainee’s current role or service, experienced clinicians may work with children or young people where the standard protocol can be used without adaptation. Suitability should be considered carefully, taking into account the complexity of the presentation and the clinician’s experience and confidence. Trainees working with children and adolescents are strongly advised to obtain appropriate EMDR clinical supervision in addition to the supervision provided within the training. Supervision should be provided in line with EMDR Europe guidance and within the supervisor’s scope of clinical experience. While many members of our training team have extensive experience in Child and Adolescent work, we cannot guarantee placement in a supervision group with a specific Child and Adolescent focus. It is recommended that trainees follow the EMDR Europe training pathway, gaining experience with the standard protocol during standard training and undertaking EMDR Europe Accredited Child and Adolescent training where appropriate following completion of standard training. For more detailed guidance on working with complex clients, we encourage you to read our FAQs. There are EMDR Europe Child and Adolescent Training courses available that you can access after your Part 1, however, we strongly recommend you complete ALL 4 parts of your EMDR accredited course BEFORE completing any additional training. https://www.purplehouseclinic.co.uk/psychologists-lincoln/emdr-training-the-purple-house-clinic/ EMDR UK provides further guidance on this subject and how to get support beyond the training here: https://emdrassociation.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Guidance-for-good-practice-in-EMDR-CA-Sep-2024.pdf Guidance for working with children and adolescents in the UK Statement on Practice Update https://www.emdracademy.co.uk/workshops-1 daily 0.75 2026-03-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1611923500271-CM8JBNA30DVWB7F42ZNR/Phase+3.PNG WORKSHOPS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1616590155460-A4PCVUFHDC862AN8O1CJ/Unblocking+Strategies.PNG WORKSHOPS - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5761890c5559863bb11778a8/1a084ac2-197b-4aa5-bacc-f39284899704/matt+emdr.png WORKSHOPS - Information about the Trainer Matthew is a passionate, approachable, and highly skilled psychotherapist with extensive experience.
