EMDR Basic Training - Virtual; September/October 2025

This is virtual training open. Please check my other course options for In-Person EMDR Basic Training.

This course includes all the components required by the EMDR International Assocation (EMDRIA). Learners will receive 40 hours of direct instruction - 20 in didactic lecture and 20 in supervised practicum. This is delivered across two separate three-day trainings held in-person. Following completion of these 40 hours, learners will then receive 10 hours in group consultation for follow-up instruction once they have had an opportunity to utilize EMDR.

In addition to the course, learners are required to obtain 3rd Edition of "Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy" By Francine Shapiro. 

No, successful completion of this course and the 10 following consultation hours enables the learned to identify themselves as EMDR-Trained.

EMDR-Trained is the designation used to indicate successful completion of the 50 hour EMDR basic training program (such as the one offered here). 

EMDR-Certified is a designation recognizing the additional training, consultation, and experience of an EMDR clinician. In addition to completion of the EMDR Basic Training, EMDR-Certified clinicians will have completed additional training in EMDR related topics and have undergone supervision with an approved consultant. Aurora offers both programs allowing individuals to become EMDR-Trained and Certified.
