This 8-module basic EMDR training will include everything you need to know to begin using EMDR effectively with your clients. Throughout this immersive training, participants will learn the intricacies of EMDR therapy, gaining invaluable insights and practical skills to effectively address trauma and promote healing in their clients.
Participants begin the training by exploring foundational EMDR framework elements, discussing treatment goals, and homing in on the history-taking phase and preparation phases of EMDR. Through experiential exercises and case studies, participants will learn essential techniques for preparing clients for the therapeutic journey, ensuring readiness and resilience for the processing phases ahead.
Practice portions will be integrated into the sessions.  As part of the practice sessions, participants will spend one-on-one time guiding one another through the core processing phases of EMDR therapy, which include assessment, desensitization, installation, body scan, and closure. Opportunities abound to work alongside other mental health professionals in a mock client/practitioner relationship with the goal of promoting adaptive processing and integration of traumatic memories. Participants find the hands-on approach key to building confidence in applying EMDR skills in clinical settings.
The last sessions of the training centers on the final re-evaluation phase, reflecting on progress and addressing residual trauma symptoms. Throughout the 8-module training program, participants will not only acquire practical skills and theoretical knowledge but also cultivate a deeper understanding of trauma-informed care and the transformative power of EMDR therapy. Join us on this important journey to strengthen our capacity as catalysts for healing and growth!

Virtual EMDR Certificate Training

Virtual EMDR Certificate Training 2025

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: 
According to a recent meta-analysis completed by the Canadian Psychological Association, the success rate for treating various anxiety disorders is only 46%.  What are we missing?
Behind all anxiety, lies a one of 5 core fears around “universal themes of loss”–that we all share, including:
<ul style="font-weight: 400;">
<li>abandonment (loss of love),</li>
<li>loss of identity,</li>
<li>loss of meaning,</li>
<li>loss of purpose and</li>
<li>fear of death.</li>
</ul>
We develop our primary defenses, usually early in childhood or at times of trauma, as our best attempt to protect ourselves from these fears, but always at too great a cost.  This leaves us constantly holding vigil, on the lookout for the resurfacing of the fear.  We build our entire personality upon this fear-defense dynamic.  When it spins out of control, an anxiety disorder develops.
This webinar, appropriate for all levels, presents an overview of the Deconstructing Anxiety model, a new, evidence-based approach to understanding and treating anxiety.  Incorporating psychodynamics, mindfulness, Gestalt, CBT and transpersonal psychology, Dr. Pressman will introduce unique exercises that enable us to pinpoint the precise mechanism by which the core fear is adopted and reverse its effects.  Doing so not only resolves the initial problem but provides a clear roadmap to what the Deconstructing Anxiety model calls &#8220;Fulfillment&#8221;&#8211;a restoration of an original sense of wholeness and completion that brings meaning and purpose to our lives.
Come prepared for an exciting adventure into the deepest regions of the unconscious, where the hidden fears at the source of our difficulties live, to bring them out into consciousness, available for rapid and lasting transformation.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals
Content level: Introductory/Intermediate

Deconstructing Anxiety: A New Evidence-Based Model 

Deconstructing Anxiety: A New Evidence-Based Model for Understanding and Treating Anxiety

A CE-eligible webinar for therapists, counselors, nurses, and psychologists seeking a deeper insight into DID.
This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) is not rare it’s just rarely recognized. Despite decades of research and inclusion in the DSM, DID continues to be one of the most misunderstood, misdiagnosed, and stigmatized conditions in the field of mental health.
In this foundational and eye-opening webinar, psychologist Dr. Adrian Fletcher guides therapists through a deep introduction to DID and the broader dissociative spectrum. Grounded in both clinical science and lived experience, this training invites participants to reconsider everything they thought they knew about dissociation, trauma, and what it means to be human.
We’ll trace the history of DID as a diagnosis, explore how media portrayals and outdated training have distorted clinical judgment, and learn why so many dissociative clients are hiding in plain sight often misdiagnosed with borderline personality disorder, bipolar disorder, or treatment-resistant depression and anxiety.
Through stories, case examples, and practical reflection, you will learn:
<ul>
<li>The basics of how dissociation works and why it’s an adaptive response to complex trauma</li>
<li>The subtle ways DID presents in therapy and why it’s so often missed</li>
<li>Common misconceptions that keep therapists from recognizing or treating dissociative clients accurately</li>
<li>Lived experience insights that bridge the gap between theory and practice</li>
<li>Ethical considerations for working with dissociation especially when clients don’t know they have it</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re new to dissociation or beginning to suspect you’ve been working with it all along, this webinar is your starting point for more attuned, trauma-informed care. Because when we know better, we can do better.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals

Dispelling Myths & Diagnosing Dissociative Identity Disorder

Who’s Really in the Room? Dispelling Myths & Diagnosing Dissociative Identity Disorder

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: Addiction is rarely just about the substance or behavior—it’s rooted in pain, trauma, and the search for relief. This dynamic 6-hour training explores how EMDR therapy can be leveraged to address the complex factors of addiction through evidence-based EMDR protocols that target cravings, positive feeling states, and which lead to identifying unresolved trauma.
Participants will gain a deep understanding of how maladaptive feeling states are created and impact memory networks that fuel addictive cycles. Through an integration of the DeTUR Protocol, the Feeling State Addiction Protocol (FSAP), and standard EMDR phases, clinicians will learn to desensitize urges, interrupt the craving-reward loop, and uncover the trauma beneath the behavior.
This course offers hands-on strategies, clinical demonstrations, and case examples to bring EMDR addiction treatment to life. Attendees will leave with practical tools for helping clients break the positive reward association linked to their addictive behaviors, reprocess core wounds, restore agency, and build a sustainable path toward recovery.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: We don’t do therapy by formula, of course; we treat every individual and couple as unique. But over time, the best therapists have observed that certain ways of practicing our craft are more likely to get positive outcomes (and often more quickly, with less aggravation). What are these?
Some involve what we’ve learned about human emotion and decision-making, and how to use that knowledge to advance (or protect) the therapy. Others involve the therapeutic relationship itself—one of our most powerful clinical tools, which we want to make and keep as effective as possible. When we don’t work harder than our patients—and get better results, too—we generally enjoy our work more.
These are techniques that we don’t learn in school. Take advantage of what a Master Clinician has learned over 40 years—so you don’t have to wait that long to develop this practical wisdom yourself. 
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals

21 Ways to Make Therapy More Effective

This webinar satisfies requirements for live interactive CE credits for all professions.
DESCRIPTION: We’re seeing more and more couples in conflict over one partner’s porn use. The most common clinical approach pathologizes the porn consumer while legitimizing the other partner’s grievances. This violates our commitment to neutrality. More importantly, it doesn’t help the couple.
To help us work more effectively with such cases, this webinar focuses on treating intrapsychic conflicts, power struggles, and existential issues relating to porn use and sexuality.
We’ll look at how one or both partners may be acting out body image issues, and how each partner’s narratives about pornography, sexuality, and gender may be underlying themes in a couple’s conflict.
We’ll also explore how conflict about pornography often allows couples to avoid confronting their sexual relationship’s deficits. And we’ll look at various sexual issues—such as desire, arousal, and masturbation—that should be raised when working with these cases.
Finally, we’ll examine how to work with people who are using porn in unhealthy ways—without increasing their sense of shame, guilt, isolation, or inadequacy.
When a patient says they’re “out of control” regarding porn, is that really accurate? We’ll examine why “porn addiction” is not a helpful concept—and you’ll learn alternate, effective treatment approaches that are skills-based rather than deficit-based, and which enhance relationship connection rather than undermine it.
Target audience: This course is appropriate for all mental health professionals
