Working toward EMDRIA Certification can feel like a solo project.
You've done the training. You're seeing clients, logging sessions, trying to find a consultant, and figuring out continuing education credits, mostly on your own. Somewhere along the way, a credential that's supposed to deepen your clinical confidence starts to feel like one more administrative hurdle to clear.
And if you're doing it alone, it usually stays that way.
Solo 1:1 consultation can check the box, but it doesn't always build what you actually need: a room of peers who understand the cases you're bringing, who push your clinical thinking, and who are thinking about where this field is headed the same way you are. Without that, certification becomes something you're racing to finish rather than a process that actually makes you a better clinician. And if you're also curious about where EMDR can go next, intensives, KAP, expanding your scope, it's hard to find that conversation happening anywhere near your certification hours.
This cohort was built to close that gap.
I created this group for EMDR clinicians who want both things at once: the structure and documented hours certification requires, and a room of peers who are genuinely engaged in where this work is going.
As an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant in Training, I bring a framework built from my own clinical experience, both in traditional EMDR and in building KAP and intensives into my own practice, to every session. You'll leave with sharper clinical judgment, hours that count, and a small group of colleagues who understand exactly what you're working through.

A quick look at EMDRIA certification requirements
If you’re working toward certification, here’s the high-level picture:
50 EDMR sessions with at least 25 clients
20 hours of EMDR-specific consultation with an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant (up to 15 can be with a Consultant in Training)
12 hours of EMDRIA continuing education credits
At least 2 years of post-licensure experience
This cohort is designed to move you through the consultation-hours piece with real depth, not just a box to check.
Requirements can shift. Confirm current details directly with EMDRIA.
