Per the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA), EMDR Consultation is:

“A collaborative relationship between mental health clinicians in which the consultant reviews the consultee's EMDR client case material and provides feedback to the consultee regarding their use of standard EMDR therapy with clients. The consultation is expected to be consultee-centered which means the focus is on the skills and knowledge of the consultee's use of standard EMDR therapy with clients. The consultation should be structured in format and consultees are expected to provide examples of their clinical work as part of the consultation process. This may include video recordings, audio recordings, near verbatim transcripts, and/or EMDR case presentation forms. The consultant is expected to review and evaluate the consultee's work as part of the consultation process.

• EMDR basic training consultation: The EMDR basic training consultation hours are focused on implementation and initial application of standard EMDR therapy and the AIP model in work with actual client cases. (This can be done with approval by your EMDR Basic Training Instructor)

• EMDRIA Certification consultation: The certification consultation hours are focused on demonstrating proficiency and fidelity to the standard EMDR therapy and also demonstrating an awareness of situations in which modifications to standard EMDR therapy are necessary in order to safely and effectively treat the client.

• NOTE: Consultation is not equivalent to clinical supervision. Hours accrued toward EMDRIA Certification are not recommended to co-occur with supervision (for licensure). Consultation is also not equivalent to provision of psychotherapy services, which poses an ethical issue of dual relationship.”

Consultation hours can happen individually or in a group setting.

• Individual Consultation Hours are $100/hour.

• Group Consultation Hours are $50/hour.
