Workshop:
Mastering EMDR Therapy: A Practicum for Personal and Professional Development
by
Kathleen Martin, LCSW
Stamford, CT
March 8-10, 2019
Description
This practicum workshop will focus on fine tuning EMDR psychotherapy skills while at the same time providing a forum for significant personal growth. Participants will rotate the roles of therapist and client for approximately 60% of the workshop, using personal material to practice and integrate the advanced skills taught in the remaining 40% of the workshop. The emphasis is on developing and fine-tuning EMDR psychotherapy skills working with complex trauma. There will be a combination of daily lectures and live demonstrations. The practicum sessions are closely supervised to ensure fidelity to the EMDR Standard Protocol and the successful integration of the advanced skills. Because of this close supervision, significant personal work can be accomplished within the practicum setting. The workshop size is limited to maintain a high level of individualized attention and learning.
Objectives
Objectives:
1) Demonstrate fidelity to the EMDR Standard Protocol in supervised practice.
