About Connect’s No-Fee EMDR Peer Consultation/Study Groups

Our no-fee EMDR Peer Consultation/Study Groups welcome all clinicians who have attended at least Weekend One of an EMDRIA-Approved EMDR Basic Training, so feel free to share the registration link with colleagues.

These meetings are meant as an additional resource for learning and building community. They are not required and do not count toward fulfillment of Basic Consultation or EMDRIA Certification hours.


How to Sign Up

  • Complete the brief registration.
  • Once registered, you’ll receive a confirmation email with one Zoom invitation to all four meetings (January - April).
  • Check your inbox (and junk/spam folders) for the email, save the Zoom link, and mark your calendar.
  • When it’s time to meet, click your Zoom link to join. Please note that the same link will work for all four meetings.
  • You’ll also receive reminder emails prior to each meeting.
  • Please note that you only need to register once for the January - April meeting series. You will receive an invitation to register for the next series (May - August) in April.

How to Prepare for a Meeting

Please join from a confidential space with your camera on. Think about any questions you want to ask, successes you want to share, or anything you may need from the group.

All levels are welcome. Don’t be intimidated if you’re new or less experienced — most of the time, solutions lie within the basics of AIP Theory, and those standard approaches bear repeating.

If you plan to share a case, please be ready to provide enough context for meaningful feedback while refraining from sharing identifying information or unnecessary trauma details.

Be ready to give as much as you receive — the beauty of peer consultation is in sharing wisdom, experience, resources, perspectives, and encouragement.
