Approved for 8 EMDRIA Credits

When working with complex trauma through the EMDR therapy process there is an increase potential for blocking, looping, and out of window of tolerance experiences.  Therapists often run into blocking beliefs, somatic experiences, and abreactions.  Because of the increase of these potential experiences for clients, the clinician needs more tools in their tool belt to prepare the client for EMDR processing.  This training will prepare clinicians to quickly identify and differentiate simple and complex traumas as well as common blocking beliefs experienced by clients with complex trauma.  Additionally this training will provide a pathway for clinicians to predict resources a client may need specifically developed in phase 2 of EMDR that will better prepare them for the reprocessing phases.  Clinicians will learn how to differentiate between restricted protocols to better make clinical decisions for the clients in reprocessing.  When working with complex trauma using EMDR it is critical to recognize blocking in processing and how to use cognitive interweaves to help the client smoothly process the target memory.  This content will not only help clinicians recognize blocking beliefs, but also equip them by listing various cognitive interweaves that can be used to help support a client during processing.  And finally this content will expand on the learning from EMDR basic training to include a more robust preparation and processing experience for clients with complex trauma.
