Contrary to some beliefs, EMDR is easy. Treating trauma, on the other hand, is very difficult.
That’s why I created this new, intensive online course filled with practical strategies to help you effectively integrate EMDR into your trauma treatment practice.Through instructive commentary, in-session demonstrations, case studies and real footage from large group trainings, individual client sessions and clinical consultation groups, I’ll show you step-by-step how to develop the clinical assessment skills you need to safely use EMDR in your practice.
Throughout the course, you’ll also hear expert guidance and support from some of today’s most sought-after trauma professionals, including: Bessel van der Kolk, Peter Levine, David Grand, Belleruth Naparstek, Stephen Porges, Babette Rothschild, and Robin Shapiro.
So join me today, and let me show you exactly how you can help clients manage disturbing feelings, safely process traumatic memories, reduce fears and anxiety, and develop resources to achieve and maintain recovery.
Yours in healing,
Linda Curran, BCPC, LPC, CACD, CCDPD
PS – Register today and you’ll also get exclusive access to the ALL-NEW Consultation series where you’ll see clinicians discussing real-life examples of using EMDR in telehealth practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I'm a beginner to EMDR, can I take this course?
A: Yes! We've included some bonus materials to help the beginner gain a better understanding of "EMDR 101" before diving right in to course material. Although this course is geared towards people who've already had some EMDR training, a beginner will still benefit from the content provided.
Q: Will I be able to use EMDR after completing this course? Will I need additional training? Does this course take the place of Level I and/or Level II training?
A: It is VERY important to note that, while EMDR is a relatively easy skill to learn, processing traumatic memories is very difficult and requires a skilled therapist. If this is your first EMDR training, you will want to take additional training, including supervised in-person practice sessions, before implementing it into your practice. This course is not affiliated with the EMDR Institute or EMDRIA.
Q: Will this course certify me to use EMDR with my clients? Is certification required for me to use EMDR?
A: This course will not certify you to use EMDR. Certification is offered by the member organization EMDRIA; it is completely voluntary.
Q: Will I get CPD credit with this course? How much?
A: Yes! This course qualifies for 20.5 CPD if you complete all the course material and bonus material.
