You don’t have to figure this out alone.

Whether you’re just starting out with EMDR or looking to get certified, consultation gives you the support you need to feel confident and effective.

This isn’t check the box consultation. This is support that helps you grow.

✔ Case conceptualization for EMDR with your real-life clients

✔ Confidence following the scripts and protocols without feeling like a robot

✔ Comfort maintaining fidelity to EMDR while still using your already established clinical skills

✔ Understanding of how to use EMDR even with complex trauma and dissociation

✔ Skills in staying client centered while integrating a new model of therapy

✔ EMDRIA-certification hours, or consultation toward your EMDR training hours (where applicable)

Individual Consultation

  • Private sessions via zoom

  • Tailored to your questions, your clients, your goals

  • Ideal for certification or deeper skill development

Group Consultation

  • Small, connected groups (no more than 6)

  • Live case discussions, practice, and skill-building

  • Great for learning in community (and more affordable)

Consultation FAQ

Who do you work with?

I work with EMDR therapists across the spectrum:

• Participants in the EMDR Institute basic trainings

•EMDR trained clinicians gaining hours for EMDRIA Certification

• Newer clinicians wanting help integrating EMDR into real-world therapy

• Experienced therapists needing consultation for complex cases including trauma and dissociation

Are you EMDRIA-approved and EMDR Institute-Approved?

Yes to both. I am an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant, which means hours from both individual and group consultation can count toward your EMDRIA Certification.

I am also a EMDR Institute-Approved Facilitator. If you are a participant with the EMDR Institute, your consultation hours with me will count toward the completion of your training.

Do I need to be “good” at EMDR already?

Nope. Come as you are. I’ll meet you with zero judgement.

What’s your consultation style?

I want you to feel seen, understood, and supported to grow. "Mess ups" are treated as growth and learning experiences, and successes are celebrated together. We can troubleshoot any areas where you feel stuck or confused, and explore case conceptualization to help you bring more EMDR into your practice with your clients. My aim is to help you feel comfortable and confident as an EMDR clinician.

What’s the cost?

Individual Consultation for EMDRIA Certification: $200 per 1 hour session

Individual Consultation for EMDR Institute participants completing their 10 hours of consultation: $125 per 1 hour session

Group Consultation: $250 for a 5-session group series (includes all 5 sessions)

Can I talk to you first?

Of course! I offer a free 15-minute intro call to make sure it’s the right fit.

You can be both unsure and brilliant. Let’s grow your confidence—together.

There's nothing wrong with not knowing. Seeking support is the best and fastest way to gain competence and confidence.

I'm here for you.
