FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions (For Therapists)
What is EMDR therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based, trauma-focused psychotherapy approach that facilitates the reprocessing of maladaptively stored memories. EMDR supports adaptive information processing and is widely used in the treatment of trauma and other clinically significant conditions.
How does EMDR therapy support clinical outcomes?
EMDR therapy targets the underlying neural networks contributing to trauma-related symptoms rather than relying solely on cognitive insight. It has been shown to reduce symptoms of PTSD, anxiety, depression, and other trauma-related presentations, often leading to more efficient and sustained clinical change.
What should therapists expect during EMDR training or consultation?
EMDR training includes didactic instruction, experiential practice, and clinical consultation aligned with EMDRIA standards. Therapists learn to apply the eight phases of EMDR therapy, utilize bilateral stimulation appropriately, and integrate EMDR within their existing theoretical orientation and scope of practice.
How long does it take to become competent in EMDR therapy?
Competency develops over time through formal training, consultation, and supervised clinical application. While foundational skills are gained during basic training, continued consultation and practice are essential for ethical and effective EMDR implementation—particularly with complex or developmental trauma.
Who is EMDR training appropriate for?
EMDR training is designed for licensed mental health professionals and clinicians working toward licensure who provide psychotherapy services. This includes psychologists, professional counselors, social workers, marriage and family therapists, and other eligible behavioral health providers.
