Program Description:

This workshop will focus on enhancing the therapist’s conceptualization of each phase of EMDR therapy treatment with consideration of how the client’s processing speed may change the flow of therapy; how the client's level of intelligence and memory impact treatment; and finally, how mentalizing impacts trauma reprocessing. Furthermore, the client’s developmental mastery, attachment experiences, and Adverse Child Experiences influence how the phases of treatment unfold.
