Why take your EMDR therapy training from the EMDR Institute?
The EMDR Institute is the birth place of EMDR therapy and the home of EMDR’s founder, Francine Shapiro, Ph.D.  and is the oldest most experienced EMDR training organization.
The EMDR Institute will always teach you how to adhere to the protocols used in the 30+ studies that have confirmed EMDR therapy’s efficiency and effectiveness.
These randomized and controlled studies earned EMDR therapy its A-rated and empirically validated status for treating PTSD.   You can’t do better than that!   With the EMDR Institute trainings and consultations, you’ll learn EMDR therapy the way Dr. Shapiro intends it to be taught and administered.
