Course overview
EMDR therapy is one of the most popular therapies available today for the treatment of trauma-related concerns, appearing in the evidence-based treatment guidelines of many prominent organizations. Since its introduction to the therapeutic world in 1989, EMDR therapy has helped millions of people worldwide. In this course, professionals are introduced not just to the fundamentals of EMDR therapy, but also to how EMDR therapy conceptualizes trauma through the lens of what is called the adaptive information processing (AIP) model. This conceptualization can be useful to all professionals who want to operate in a more trauma-focused way in their clinical work, whether or not they go on to do a full training in EMDR therapy. The session ends with an explanation of the full training process, helping you to determine if fully adding EMDR therapy to your clinical repertoire is a good fit.
