Are you ready to add EMDR Therapy to your practice and become an expert in trauma treatment? Or is it time to update the basic EMDR training you already have with the latest information and treatment applications?

Then join us this summer in Halifax for the latest EMDR 5-Day Training with renowned EMDR consultant and master trainer Roy Kiessling!

Register early and automatically save $100 (but hurry, the Early Bird price is on for a limited time only).

Plus, use code CPA100 to get an extra $100 off!

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy can make a significant difference when traditional talk therapy doesn’t provide the needed breakthrough for someone struggling with trauma. It helps clients safely process distressing memories by integrating them into their larger, adaptive memory network, alleviating immediate symptoms and fostering long-term healing.

This EMDRIA-approved, 5-day training course includes updated information and the latest application techniques, allowing you to offer a more comprehensive and targeted approach to trauma treatment and greatly improve client outcomes. And you’ll learn how to customize treatments for diverse client scenarios, including children, couples, grief, pain, phobias, addictions, and dissociation.

This course also includes 10 hours of post-training consultation, so you can fine-tune your understanding and skills with personalized guidance.
