EMDR Series

CE is pleased to announce that our Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) program meets all of the EMDR International Association's new certification requirements!

In July 2007, the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA) revised the requirements for basic training in EMDR. In order to be eligible for clinical membership in EMDRIA, students must now complete Part I & Part II of the Basic EMDR Training and 10 hours of consultation. Parts I & II will include 10 practicum hours in which participants have the opportunity to practice what they are learning under the supervision of trained facilitators. Participants can select from a wide variety of consultation possibilities (scheduled and paid separately) in the form of five monthly two-hour group sessions for $60 per session or 10 one-hour group telephone sessions meeting every other week for $30 per session. Times will be arranged at Part I of the training.

Participants may take our EMDR courses for CE credit only or as part of their coursework toward eligibility for clinical membership in EMDRIA. Those interested in EMDRIA membership will be able to complete both their coursework and consultation (dates to be arranged) within our CE program and will receive an EMDRIA-approved Certificate of Completion once the requirements are met.

Part I & Part II are designed to be an integrated course including consultation hours; however, if economic or other unavoidable factors prevent a participant from attending Part II of the course immediately after Part I, they may take Part II at a later date.

The basic EMDR training is intended for experienced therapists. Graduate and doctorate level students must be in the internship portion of their academic program and on a licensing track under the supervision of a fully licensed mental health professional in order to enroll.

PLEASE NOTE

Practitioners, who took an approved EMDR Part I class before the new EMDRIA standards took effect in July 2007, can bring their training up to current standards by taking a four hour EMDR Bridge Course before or after taking the Part II training that is currently offered. These courses, together with the required 10 hours of group consultation, will enable practitioners to receive an EMDR International Association approved certificate of completion.

The cost of the EMDR Bridge Course is $150, time and place TBA. For additional information or to register, please contact the instructor directly at www.philipmanfield.com.

NOTE: This bridge course is being offered by Dr. Philip Manfield and is not an official JFKU-CE course. California BBS CE credit will be available through Dr. Manfield.
