Consultation to complete of EMDR Therapy Training

10-Hours of Consultation with an EMDRIA-approved consultant on our team is required. Usually, 4-6 hours are completed between the Part 1 and Part 2 training, with the remainder done after completing Part 2. All of these hours may be done in a group setting. Completion of consultation is required before a Certificate of Completion in EMDR Therapy Training can be awarded. Upon completion, the therapist may refer to themselves as an EMDR therapist or EMDR practitioner.
