COVID and Virtual 2021 Basic Training
We are among a select group of EMDR trainings approved by EMDRIA to provide Virtual Trainings. Since, the safety of our community is paramount, and until we are advised by trusted experts that it is safe to resume in-person group training sessions, we will hold the remainder of our 2020 EMDR trainings, via Zoom meetings. Our virtual trainings will provide the same curriculum and rich learning experience we are known for.
Those registering need to be prepared to meet via Zoom with reliable and secure access to a computer or tablet device. We will provide you with detailed guidance and preparation to assure a successful training experience.
