** PLEASE REFERENCE EMDRIA.ORG FOR ALL REQUIRED MINIMUMS TO BECOME CERTIFIED **
Completing consultation hours is not a guarantee of certification as the consultant must approve that the clinical application of EMDR procedures have been met. The focus is on enhancing your professional development, knowledge and skills in clinical application of standard, evidence based EMDR therapy procedures described in Francine Shapiro's 2001 Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing: Basic Principals, Protocols and Procedures and by Roy Kiessling. Not addressed in this group series are modified EMDR procedures required for applying EMDR therapy to those with dissociative or personality disorders. See my advanced consultation group series to explore these more advanced consultation topics.
