Activity Overview
Four, two-day training modules are spread over a twelve-week period.
Modules are three to four weeks apart to provide time to practice new skills and study course readings.
There are focused periods of lecture, practice and consultation.
Morning and afternoon breaks are 15 minutes. Lunch breaks are 75 minutes.
Objectives:
• Participants will describe key principles of the Adaptive Information Processing Model and the elements of Shapiro’s (2018) and Leeds’s (2016) models of maladaptive memory networks.
• Participants will determine whether clients meet standardized criteria for readiness for EMDR reprocessing or need extended preparation.
• Participants will use standardized assessment tools or structured interviews to screen all prospective clients for dissociative disorders before using any bilateral stimulation procedures.
• Participants will describe a framework for case conceptualization and will organize and implement a planned sequence of targets for EMDR reprocessing.
• Participants will describe the purpose and carry out with adequate fidelity each of the steps in the Assessment Phase (Three) and the Reprocessing Phases (Four, Five and Six) of the standard EMDR procedural steps.
• Participants will provide effective stabilization and manualized EMDR therapy to individuals suffering from civilian and combat PTSD, panic attacks and specific phobias of traumatic origin.
• Participants will recognize when to offer an interweave selected from the themes of Responsibility, Safety and Choice and when to “stay out of the way.”
