EMDR International Association Approved Virtual Basic EMDR Training
How are we different?
- A radical departure from 2-weekend/6-day training models with an innovative design that is 10- days long, scheduled on six weekends, spread over 12 weeks to avoid information overload (Total of 80 hours)
- It is designed to lead the participants in a sequential and orderly learning experience, step by step mirroring the real-life therapy
- EMDR International Association mandated 10 hours of Consultation is built into the Training
- Small group format limited to TEN participants provides for intensive discussions and didactic interactions with the Trainer/Instructor.
- Implementing EMDR Therapy in Dyads in Concurrent Independent Practice (about 40 Hours) during the course of training further consolidates skills & competencies

What is EMDR Therapy?
EMDR is a psychotherapy approach grounded in the Neuro-biology of Information Processing & Memories
- Often when a disturbing event occurs that overwhelms one’s mind-body, it gets locked in the nervous system frozen in time and space, with the original pictures, feelings, thoughts, sounds, smells.
- These locked memories can get triggered whenever one is reminded of that past.
- Most times they stay unconscious yet causing a lot of upset, affecting how one thinks, feels, or acts.
- Such undigested memories of disturbing life experiences are the cause of most distressing symptoms that one may be experiencing now.
- EMDR seems to unlock these memories, and jump-start brain’s ability to process, digest, and assimilate these disturbing experiences, like it does normally with most experiences.
- Once it is done, one will be able to ‘remember’ those experiences without ‘reliving’ them, having learnt what was needed to be learnt, and freed from its effects in the present.
