EMDR Certification & Professional Consultation

Consultation is more than a requirement it’s a space for meaningful growth, clearer understanding, and feeling more grounded and supported in your clinical work. Whether you’re pursuing EMDR Certification, integrating body-based and attachment-focused approaches, or navigating complex, high-stakes cases, consultation offers a place to bring your questions, challenges, and clinical curiosities without judgment.

Our work together is collaborative and thoughtful. You bring your experience, perspective, and goals; I bring advanced training, lived experience, and a commitment to helping you grow in ways that are both practical and aligned with who you are as a therapist.

How Consultation Works

Individual Consultation

One-on-one consultation is tailored to your clinical focus and learning needs. Sessions may include strengthening EMDR skills, working through stuck cases, adapting interventions for complex or layered trauma, or integrating multiple modalities in a cohesive way. I can provide up to 15 of the 20 EMDRIA-required consultation hours toward EMDR Certification, with an emphasis on somatic awareness, attachment dynamics, pacing, and nervous-system–informed care.

For clinicians who work with perinatal and postpartum clients, consultation can also support thoughtful adaptation of EMDR around pregnancy, birth, loss, and early attachment—while remaining grounded in safety, timing, and clinical appropriateness.

Group Consultation

Group consultation offers a supportive, relational learning environment where clinicians benefit from both guided discussion and peer perspectives. Groups focus on case conceptualization, treatment planning, and clinical decision-making using EMDR and integrative trauma approaches. Groups may be used toward EMDRIA Certification hours or for ongoing professional growth.

Training & Experience

I am a Certified EMDR Therapist (Somatic & Attachment-Focused) and Consultant-in-Training, with advanced EMDR training in:

• Early EMDR Intervention (RTEP) for recent trauma

• Complex and prolonged trauma presentations

• Group EMDR interventions (GTEP)

• EMDR Intensives

• EMDR with OCD and ERP integration

• Dissociation, attachment trauma, and relational injuries

• Preverbal and non-verbal trauma

• Blocking beliefs, excessive grief, and perpetrator introjects

My work is further informed by training and experience in perinatal mental health, allowing me to support clinicians who encounter trauma during pregnancy, postpartum transitions, and early attachment development as part of their broader trauma work.

Additional advanced training includes Accelerated Resolution Therapy (Certified), Brainspotting, IFS/Ego States, hypnotherapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), yoga-based nervous system practices, and specialized training in OCD/BFRBs (Inference-Based CBT & ERP) and the Gottman Method.

I also bring lived experience as a U.S. Army Veteran, former law enforcement officer, and clinician across medical systems from inpatient care to hospice experience that informs my understanding of trauma, moral injury, and high-stress occupational cultures.

What Growth Looks Like

Over time, therapists often move from feeling uncertain or stuck to feeling grounded, flexible, and confident in their clinical decisions. You’ll deepen your understanding of pacing, nervous-system regulation, and integration across modalities—while learning how to adapt EMDR for the real clients and contexts you serve.

Whether you choose individual or group consultation, this work is about more than completing hours. It’s about becoming the therapist you want to be with clarity, skill, and presence that supports both you and your clients.
