 imonials:\n"This course has changed my life both professionally and person
 ally. Sincerely\, thank you." February 2022\n"Can I just say again how gra
 teful I am for the incredible foundational training you gave me. 90% of my
  practice is EMDR now and I’m confident in what I’m doing because I kn
 ow that you taught it to me the way it’s supposed to be done. I see and 
 hear some stuff online that really makes me shake my head. I’m glad I le
 arned from a “purist”\, if that’s what it would be called. I follow 
 the protocol exactly how you taught us and demonstrated to us and man\, do
 es it work. :)  Anyway\, I’m very thankful!"  Former Trainee email rec
 eived Oct. 2020\n"I am sending a quick note to you to express my appreciat
 ion for the EMDR &amp\; LGBTQ+ panel discussion you shared in the training
  portal. Today is the final day I have set aside to work on the pre-study 
 and text and I found the video so helpful in terms of my own safety and st
 abilization going into this training. The panel was FANTASTIC and really h
 elped me to feel that I picked the right training." March 2023\n"Thank you
  for bringing EMDR to my practice. I am finding it is a game-changer with 
 clients.” Dec. 2020\n"Thanks\, Sue for a wonderful day of learning. I’
 m very thankful to have taken this course immediately after basic training
  so that I can be effective in my work with clients." January 2021\n\nAppr
 eciated how approachable you are. Your encouragement and continual check i
 ns made it possible for me to ask questions.\nYou seem to anticipate what 
 questions/stuck points we might have at certain points in the training and
  mentioned some possible questions and this normalized the learning and pr
 ompted some questions for me and others\nI appreciate the repeat messaging
  about trusting the system but also the importance of strong clinical skil
 ls and knowledge and experience and decision making\nStrengths based respe
 ctful discussions of people and their concerns\nGreat handouts. You are ve
 ry generous with materials."\n\n"Sue herself is a master at EMDR and holdi
 ng space for the client. Her teaching is practical\, relevant\, and well t
 hought out." 2021\n"Thanks so much for all of the incredible support\, gui
 dance\, and resources in this EMDR training. It truly has changed my pract
 ice (most of my current clients and I are in the midst of EMDR phases righ
 t now) + me personally (I am also working with an EMDR therapist too). “

 and Resources\nWhy take a training scheduled over a few months?\nPaced Lea
 rning enhances integration of material &amp\; practice with clients.\nLear
 ning the content in over time and in smaller sections\, allows trainees to
  practice each component with clients versus learning all the content at o
 nce and being launched into the world without follow up or time to integra
 te each component. Sue's model aligns with learning theory and Zoom fatigu
 e to bring you the best learning format possible. Trainees have commented 
 that this model has been best for integrating the EMDR Basic Training cont
 ent. Additionally\, learning or counselling online can be fatiguing and th
 us spanning the content over time reduces fatigue and increases learning i
 ntegration.\nCanadian EMDRIA Instructor: \nSue Genest\, BA Hons.\, MSc. C

 s developed within a dominant culture world and researched as such. Althou
 gh many are working to add culturally competent components and understandi
 ng\, I recognize it might not meet all your needs and your valuable perspe
 ctive is welcomed. If you wish to discuss your perspective or experience I
  welcome you to contact me at info@suegenest.ca. Additionally\, if you exp
 erience micro aggressions or anything short of celebrating the diversity o
 f people\, please contact Sue immediately.\n\nLearning EMDR Online- Compre
 hensive Program - 9th day &amp\; 5th practica...\nEvaluations from trainee
 s who began learning EMDR in person before COVID and completed online indi
 cated it was as effective as in person. In fact\, they noted many advantag
 es such as quieter break out rooms\; easier to connect online with other t
 rainees for peer support\; lower cost due to no travel\, eating out\, and 
 accommodation costs.\nAdditionally\, Learning EMDR online means you can do
  EMDR online AND in person where as learning in person does not teach you 
 how to do EMDR online which has very specific adaptations that must be mad
 e. Being able to work with clients online doing EMDR allows access to thos
 e who are in isolated communities\, restricted finances to travel\; and ot
 her mental health or trauma related barriers.\nImportant Notes on PRACTICA
  and Training Content:\nAs this training deals with basic training content
  of EMDR keep these things in mind:\n1) You will need clients to practice 
 what you are learning. You need clientele who are NOT dealing with complex
  trauma and dissociation. If you do not have clients\, you will be unable 
 to complete the training. Consider contacting an EMDR therapist in your ar
 ea to arrange for pro bono or sliding fee scale of non complex clients to 
 practice. We are very fortunate in the EMDR community to be able to take a
 ll kinds of advanced trainings on how to use EMDR with complex cases and s
 pecialty populations once done the basic training. An introduction to this
  material will be provided in the training. Think of it like taking your f
 irst hypnosis course… you wouldn’t expect to practice your new skills 
 on the most complex of cases in your practice. EMDR is a very different sk
 ill set than what you might be used to\, so be sure you have clients you c
 an practice with. I would suggest at least 10 + clients for the best integ
 ration of material and 8 as the minimum to complete consultation. Of cours
 e\, the more you practice the better your integration of the material.\n2)
  Some of the content of the course and practica can be triggering to clini
 cians with unresolved childhood trauma\; dissociative disorders\, and thos
 e who have never done counselling before esp. EMDR. You will find it reall
 y helpful for your learning to seek out an EMDR therapist in your area to 
 try out a few sessions to see what it is like. It will be imperative you c
 an self-regulate in practica\, i.e. shift states\, self sooth\, and have a
 ffect acceptance (know how to work with your own emotions in positive ways
 ). You might consider some of my team to support your learning and persona
 l development. We know as EMDR experts that doing our own personal work ad
 vances our attunement\, integration of material\, and artfulness using EMD
 R with our clients.\n\n\n\nThis is a comprehensive training that will requ
 ire your focus and time to practice between sessions.\nIn order to create 
 a therapeutic environment for others in practica and for your self\, consi
 der these tips:\n- respect\, kindness\, empathy are required in training p
 ractica in the same way you would expect in therapy. Respect for your coll
 eagues\, facilitators\, and trainer are required. To do otherwise will ris
 k the completion of your training. Those who are discriminatory or disrupt
 ive will be asked to leave the training without refund. All diversity of h
 umanity is welcome in this training.\n- Get prior support from supervisors
  and/or agencies to practice EMDR therapy between sessions.\n- Start prep
 aring your clients for EMDR by teaching them self regulation skills\; how 
 to shift states\, how to self sooth\, and affect acceptance and being with
  emotion. Time spent building these skills will allow you to deepen into y
 our own learning of EMDR with clients and start reprocessing sooner. If yo
 u need to expand your skills in this area to teach clients\, consider usin
 g a DBT exercise book for ideas.\n- Put time aside before training to com
 plete the Pre Study. It is essential that you understand trauma and dissoc
 iation to apply EMDR and have basic clinical skills such as using a wide v
 ariety of history taking approaches and psychometrics for determining if y
 our client has experienced complex trauma and has a dissociative structure
 .\n- Put time aside between training sessions to practice EMDR and to com
 plete the consultation portion of your training.\nI look forward to meetin
 g you at the Online LIVE EMDR Basic Training. The Meet n Greet to casually
  get to know your instructor and colleagues while also learning how to wor
 k with bilateral stimulation online via zoom will be covered. Zoom Links f
 or meetings will be provided closer to the training.\n\nTo understand Time
  Zone changes google to ensure you get the right time for training. This t
 raining is in Eastern time ET (Toronto time zone).\n\n"Thanks so much for 
 all of the incredible support\, guidance\, and resources in this EMDR trai
 ning. It truly has changed my practice (most of my current clients and I a
 re in the midst of EMDR phases right now) + me personally (I am also work
 ing with an EMDR therapist too). “  Feb 2023 Trainee\n"Thank you so muc
 h for sharing your gifts of knowledge in EMDR\, including making the sessi
 ons a safe space to learn and practice. This has been transformative for m
 e and I appreciate that immensely." 2023 Trainee\nPLEASE NOTE THERE IS NO
