I see and hear some st uff online that really makes me shake my head. I’m glad I learned 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\, does it work. :)  Anyway\, I’m very thankful!"  Former Trainee email received Oct. 2 020\n\n"Thank you for bringing EMDR to my practice. I am finding it is a g ame-changer with clients.” Dec. 2020\nOnline Course Program:\nDay 1: Pre Study Course: access 1 month before training.\n\nMeet &\; Greet Option al Day – January 21st 9-12pm PT\n\nMeet the trainer in a casual setting online\; meet other trainees\; and test out your online Zoom computer skil ls while also learning EMDR virtual skills. This time is highly recommende d for those trainees who are very uncomfortable with computers and need to prepare for doing a course 100% online.\n\nDay 2: Course Introduction Jan uary 29\, 9-4pm (PT)\nDay 3 &\; 4: January 30-31\, 9-5pm (PT)\nDay 5\ , 6\, 7: Feb. 25-27\, 9-5pm (PT)\nDay 8 &\; 9: April 9-10\, 9-5pm (P T)\nDays 1-9 will contain all practica required to complete EMDRIA Approve d Basic Training.\n\n***More practica days may be added to accommodate a l arger group size.\nCONSULTATION DAYS:\nAfter Days 3&\; 4 / Phase 1&\ ;2 - 2 Case Write ups posted to Sue’s online forum by Feb. 19th + 2 case post answers to colleague posts. Case write up guides and how to respond to others are in the manual and will be discussed in training.\n\n4hr Grou p CONSULTATION April 16th 9-1pm (PT) - 4 cases write ups posted on Sue ’s online forum on Phases 3-6 by March 29th &\; 4 + 2 case post answe rs to colleague posts.\n\n3hrs Group CONSULTATION May 6th 8-11am (PT) - 2 case write up on Sue’s online forum on Phases 3-6 by April 29th &\; 2 answers to colleague case posts.\n\nOption: You may opt to register fo r August 12th 9-12pm (ET) instead of May 6th if you want more time to pr actice before you have your final consult. Registration for either consult will happen once training has begun.\n\nHow would you make the decision b etween the two final consultation dates? Depending on the number of client s you have and how much time you would like to practice before having your final consult\, this can help determine which day you register for once y ou start the training. You are also able to arrange the 3hrs of consult ti me with any of my Consultant team if you prefer to choose your own time at your own cost.\n\nDay 10-11 - Comprehensive Day Options:\nApril 26th\, 9- 4pm (Day 2) (Pacific time)\nMay 7\,  9-4pm (Day 1) (Pacific time)\nEMDRIA requires that all trainees are visually present the entire training to re ceive a Certificate of Completion. If you miss ANY components of the train ing including 15min. of a day to the entire day\; etc. you will need to re gister for a future training at full cost to complete as you will be takin g a spot away from someone else who could have attended that training.\nTh is training from start to finish must be complete within one year from the starting date.\n \;\n\nWhy take a training broken up over time? This course is designed to enhance your learning and integration of the materi al. Learning the content over time allows you to practice each component w ith clients versus learning all the content in 5 days and being launched i nto the world without follow up. My trainees have found this model best fo r integrating the EMDR Basic Training content. Additionally\, learning or counselling online can be fatiguing and thus spanning the content over tim e reduces fatigue and increases learning integration.\n\n \;\nCanadian EMDRIA Instructor:\nSue Genest\, BA Hons.\, MSc.

You need clientele who are NOT dealing with complex trauma a nd dissociation. If you do not have clients\, you will be unable to comple te the training. Consider contacting an EMDR therapist in your area to arr ange 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 all kinds of advanced trainings on how to use EMDR with complex cases and specialty populations once done the basic training. An introduction to this material will be provided in the training. Think of it like taking your first hypn osis course… you wouldn’t expect to practice your new skills on the mo st complex of cases in your practice. EMDR is a very different skill set t han what you might be used to\, so be sure you have clients you can practi ce with. I would suggest at least 10 + clients for the best integration of material and 8 as the minimum to complete consultation. Of course\, the m ore you practice the better your integration of the material.\n\n \;\n \n2) Some of the content of the course and practica can be triggering to c linicians with unresolved childhood trauma\; dissociative disorders\, and those who have never done counselling before esp. EMDR. You will find it r eally 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 y ou can self-regulate in practica\, i.e. shift states\, self sooth\, and ha ve affect acceptance (know how to work with your own emotions in positive ways). You might consider some of my team to support your learning and per sonal development. We know as EMDR experts that doing our own personal wor k advances our attunement\, integration of material\, and artfulness using EMDR with our clients.\n\n \;\n\nThis is a comprehensive training tha t will require your focus and time to practice between sessions.\n\n \ ;\n\nSome important and helpful ways to take care of yourself and enhance your learning are:\n\n Ensure you have at least one day off after the tra ining.\n Keep your evenings free to relax and rest after each training da y.\n Set up your online environment to be relaxing and comfortable.\n En sure you are not going to be interrupted during the training as you are re quired to attend all sections of the training to complete. In other words\ , make sure you have child and animal care as to not have to deal with int erruptions. To not do so may risk the completion of your training.\n You are required by EMDRIA to attend all portions of the training and to have your video live during the whole training to get credit and receive a cert ificate of completion.\n Be sure to practice free Skype or Zoom platforms to ensure your computer will work for an online training.\n To lesson di sconnections - clear your computer caches and history in your browser. Be sure your computer is updated and consider completely powering it off the night before. Completely powering off your modem once in awhile also helps . Each of these steps will lesson disconnection. You may also consider con necting your computer directly to your modem with an ethernet chord if you r wifi is shared with others or is not strong.\n Use a comfortable head s et so that it improves audio for practica and to hear content during the t raining.\n Eat well and hydrate during the training. Be sure to take time every 20min. to look away from the computer screen to care for your eyes. \n Consider having a yoga mat for break time or going for a short walk to rest your eyes and allow movement of your body. Blue light can be hard on the eyes so consider blue light glasses or screen cover for the training. \n Have some fiddle objects or grounding objects available if you know it will help you stay attuned during the online lecture components of the tr aining. For e.g. heavy blanket\, squeeze ball\, paper and pen to write not es and doodle\, etc. all to increase concentration and integration of the material you will be learning.\n\nIn order to create a therapeutic environ ment for others in practica and for your self\, consider these tips:\n\n- respect\, kindness\, empathy are required in training practica in the same way you would expect in therapy. Respect for your colleagues\, facilitato rs\, and trainer are required. To do otherwise will risk the completion of your training. Those who are discriminatory or disruptive will be asked t o leave the training without refund. All diversity of humanity is welcome in this training.\n\n- don't sit in front of a window or have lighting beh ind you as it will create a silhouette and others will be unable to see yo u. During practica your presence visually is needed to create attunement a nd a therapeutic environment. Instead\, have lighting on your face. Choos e lighting that is soft on the eyes.\n\n- sit in a comfortable chair with your computer on a desk raised to eye level to lesson fatigue and care for your back. Consider a foot stool to create a 90 degree angle for your leg s to lesson back strain. Talk to a physician or physiotherapist about ergo nomic options for sitting at the computer for long hours for training and working with clients online.\n\n \;\n\nGet prior support from supervis ors and/or agencies to practice EMDR therapy between sessions.\n\n \;\ n\nStart preparing your clients for EMDR by teaching them self regulation skills\; how to shift states\, how to self sooth\, and affect acceptance a nd being with emotion. Time spent building these skills will allow you to deepen into your own learning of EMDR with clients and start reprocessing sooner. If you need to expand your skills in this area to teach clients\, consider using a DBT exercise book for ideas.\n\n \;\n\nPut time aside before training to complete the Pre Study. It is essential that you under stand trauma and dissociation to apply EMDR and have basic clinical skills such as using a wide variety of history taking approaches and psychometri cs for determining if your client has experienced complex trauma and has a dissociative structure.\n\n \;\n\nPut time aside between sessions to practice EMDR and to complete the consultation portion of your training.\n \n \;\n\n \; CATEGORIES:EMDR Basic Therapy Training END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Edmonton X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Edmonton BEGIN:STANDARD DTSTART:20201101T010000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0600 TZOFFSETTO:-0700 TZNAME:MST END:STANDARD END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
