The basic EMDR therapy training offers so much content that it is difficult to grasp the nuances of EMDR therapy. This bilingual EMDR refresher course will cover the standard of EMDR therapy. Participants will have the opportunity to practice going through the eight phases of EMDR therapy and participate in a workshop on how properly tailoring questions can help their Spanish-speaking clients. We intend the format to be interactive, incorporating small group discussions, a brief lecture, and a practice/demo. Come to be refreshed and to receive support from your colleagues as you improve your bilingual EMDR therapy skills!
This interactive workshop is intended for EMDR Trained therapists only. You will need to submit your certificate of completion from your EMDR training provider that states you are EMDR Therapy trained.
This two day course is presented live online by Jose Carbajal, PhD, LCSW with guest Carolina Fuentes, LCSW-S
