Qualified Supervisor and Clinical Mentor

As a Consultant-In-Training, I provide consultation services to therapists that are learning EMDR and those working toward becoming certified through EMDRIA.  I am passionate about helping other EMDR therapists learn how to use EMDR as an integrative psychotherapy for treating a wide range of issues. 

Consultation services are available individually as well in group formats. Individual consultation is $100 for 60 minutes. The length for EMDR consultation groups may vary according to the number of participants. An hour group with four participants will cost $50 per person. I am a Consultant-In-Training under the guidance of Pamela Downing with Pamela Downing Counseling. 

As such, I am able to provide up to 15 of the 20 hours required for EMDR therapists that are working toward certification through EMDRIA.
