Meets Monthly from 11AM - 1PM Eastern (Tuesdays), Starting February 7, 2023

10 EMDRIA Credits Requested:

10 CEs requested from CE-Classes

Instructors: Reg Morrow Robinson & Bill Brislin

Skill Level: Moderate to Advanced


About this Course:

An online master class of EMDR Therapists seeking to develop their skills in working with complex trauma and dissociation in a mutually supportive and challenging environment. This facilitated process will begin as a book study group with EMDR and Dissociation: The Progressive Approach by Anabel Gonzalez and Delores Mosquera as the text. We will seek to integrate advanced AIP case conceptualization with attachment theory and the theory of structural dissociation.

Participants will receive the benefit of two consultants, Connect EMDR’s Reg Morrow Robinson and/or Bill Brislin, a strengthening of their peer network of therapists working with complex cases, didactic and experiential exercises at each meeting with an opportunity to practice techniques, and an opportunity to integrate theory and methodology into current and future cases. Reg & Bill have facilitated this group since 2015 with each round enhancing the next. Both Reg & Bill have been delivering EMDR therapy virtually to complex clients and offering training virtually utilizing a secure zoom platform.


Requirements for Participation

This is a closed group for a minimum of six to a maximum of ten EMDR Therapists, with two instructors. The group members will have completed basic EMDR training, be EMDRIA Certified Therapists, and currently be treating clients. Prior training in dissociation is not required. Members are committed to attending ten meetings, studying the required text, using an online discussion board, and presenting cases. Presenting cases to each other greatly deepens learning through broad awareness of the complexity and diversity of complex cases, as well as the healing that occurs.


Format for Each Meeting:

30 minutes Didactic Instruction (Reg and Bill will teach new material)

30 minutes Discussion of instructional material

60 minutes Case Presentations, Case Consultation, Practice


Cost

$1100 for the package of 10 sessions.

Partial Payment Option: Select "Deposit" option to pay $500 at time of registration, and the remainder in mid-April.

One half-price scholarship is available to a minority therapist working in a primarily minority setting.
