These consultations are structured for EMDR clinicians that want to increase their knowledge in treating medical trauma with EMDR and/or had taken my training “Understanding and Treating Medical Trauma with EMDR.” The hours completed will count for your EMDR certification if you are working on it. To obtain the EMDR certification, 20 consultation hours are required and at least 10 hours must be obtained through individual, EMDR-focused consultation. The remaining 10 hours may be obtained through small group consultation.

Making the appropriate differential diagnosis determines the course of treatment. Engaging a patient with a medical condition and/or a psychological condition in EMDR therapy without conducting the appropriate differential diagnosis and/or placing the patient in the window of tolerance, may place the patient at risk and the clinician in a legal and/or ethical dilemma. A basic knowledge in health psychology is fundamental when working with medical trauma. This consultation will focus on discussing when psychological presentations mask medical conditions and discussing cases to help to determine the course of treatment, referrals to medical doctors, recommendations, and when to initiate or continue with EMDR therapy.
