ethics in emdr

Course Description

This 2+ hour training offers an in-depth look at ethical dilemmas that often arise throughout the practice of EMDR therapy. This training is specifically directed towards the EMDR treatment modality, as many ethical decisions occur spontaneously throughout the work with a client. Clinicians should be well informed and always prepared to manage ethical situations as they arise. Throughout this training, we will look at various topics such as boundaries, managing trauma and safe resourcing, dissociation, mandated reporting, and working with other clinicians.
