COURSE CONTENT
ABSTRACT
In its purest form, EMDR is already a comprehensive approach to regulating the nervous system. Many therapists understand this conceptually, but feel discomfort integrating somatic work into their therpeutic practice. Riding the Wave: Foundations of Somatic EMDR Therapy is a 4.0-hour course providing introductory somatic interventions. This course aims to increase clinician comfort and competency utilizing somatic focused language and tools, taught by an EMDR trainer and registered yoga teacher. While revisiting all eight phases of EMDR, clinicians will participate in enhancements to their basic protocol with an emphasis on moving through somatic material and finding peace and resolution in the body.
