About this Course:

Since 2020, our world has experienced a variety of disasters and critical incidents encouraging revisions, innovations and expanded applications in both EMDR R-TEP and G-TEP. In this on demand 3-hour webinar, the 8 phases of EMDR Recent Traumatic Episode Protocol (R-TEP) will be reviewed, highlighting recent innovations.

Building upon R-TEP, the EMDR Group Traumatic Episode Protocol (G-TEP) will follow. New and expanded applications of both protocols will be discussed based on recent peer reviewed research. Participants will benefit from frequent video clips demonstrating the phases and steps as well as nuanced strategies of navigating challenging moments that may arrive in treatment.

While both R-TEP and G-TEP were originally developed for application in early intervention situations, the design features of these protocols lend them to broader use. This course serves as an update on recent innovations and is also intended for therapists who are faced with an urgent clinical situation thus desiring a refresher quickly.

Therapists who have not taken the full training in both protocols are advised to do so as a prerequisite.
