All the Details


EMDR therapists can feel stuck when working with attachment trauma. This intermediate-level course is meant to help therapists develop some concrete interventions to use to help prepare a client for EMDR processing of attachment wounds. It will also help with some cognitive interweaves that can help when processing gets stuck. This course is targeted toward clinicians who are fully trained in EMDR and have an introductory knowledge of parts work. This course is a video of the live course that integrated slides, live demonstrations, and experiential work,

This course was presented live on September 24, 2024. The course time is 5 hours. That includes 4.75 hours of course videos, an 11-minute added lesson, and a 6-minute added meditation.
