Integrating Somatic Psychotherapy with EMDR: Part One
Tracking Resiliency • Pacing the Work • Deepening Processing
$925.00 for 4 days ($875 early bird up to one month before training)
Healthy, daily lunches are included in the price.
In this intensive 4-day course, therapists will learn assessing and intervening from a somatic perspective while using EMDR, to enhance the therapy process. Heightened awareness of the functioning of the body and nervous system aid the therapist in pacing the work well. This approach taps into our natural inclination towards completion, integrating well with the EMDR AIP model. Therapists can increase their skills in tracking and developing resiliency, crucial for the many moments in therapy when our clients struggle to stay regulated.

Prerequisite: EMDR Basic Training
This workshop is limited to 27 participants to enhance the personal nature of learning process-oriented work.
Participants will learn and experience how to:
Closely assess momentary levels of activation
Pace the work with attention to resiliency and the “window of tolerance”
Observe dynamics of internal processing not available from client self-reporting
Utilize the power of “sustained awareness”
Work with the inherent dilemmas between drives for completion and protection
Track subtleties of dissociative dynamics
Identify and reprocess early survival strategies
Increase integration of shifts that emerge in each moment of the therapy process
Enhance experience of existing and new resources
Nurture the development of discernment and self-awareness skills
Foundational to this work is the therapist learning to deeply “trust the process,” and fully engage in the client’s “nature of completion.”
This training includes lecture, presentation and discussion, handouts, video of client sessions, live demonstrations, short skill-building practicums, and longer practicum sessions with feedback.
