Accessible pathways to complete your EMDRIA consultation hours—with the level of structure that fits you.

If you’re beyond EMDR Basic Training and working toward certification, all consultation offered here is certification-eligible and designed to support real clinical growth—not just hour accumulation.

You can choose the container that best fits your schedule, capacity, and learning style.

Option 1: EMDR Certification Eligible Consultation — Studio Hours (Drop-In)

Flexible, certification-eligible group consultation

Studio Hours are ideal if you:
  • Need consultation without a long-term commitment
  • Want support with a specific case or stuck point
  • Are balancing a full caseload, parenting, or variable availability
  • Prefer to attend consultation as your schedule allows

What to expect:

  • Mixed-level group consultation
  • Focus on case conceptualization, protocol questions, and clinical decision-making
  • A supportive, grounded consultation environment

Format & Cost:

  • 1-Hour Group — $25
  • 2-Hour Group — $50
Each session is booked individually. Studio Hours will always remain available.

Option 2: EMDR Certification Eligible Consultation — Certification Circle

Consistent, certification-eligible consultation for clinicians who want depth and follow-through.

The Certification Circle is designed for clinicians who know they benefit from:

  • The same small group over time

  • Less repetition and more clinical depth

  • Ongoing case follow-through

  • A steady rhythm of consultation and accountability

  • Hours needed from an Approved Consultant to write their letter

  • Access to a Google Drive Library of Resources

How it works:

  • Small, consistent group (same clinicians each session)

  • 5 month commitment

  • A mix of 1-hour consults, 2-hour consults, and individuals

  • Group dates and times set in advance

Pricing (kept intentionally accessible):

  • $420

  • payment plan available


    Bundled into a structured multi-month track | 3- two hour groups, 4- one hour groups, and 2 individual consultations (12 hours total)

The Certification Circle offers the benefits of a cohort—without increasing your per-hour cost.

All Consultation Is Certification-Eligible

All group and individual consultation offered beyond Basic Training:

  • Counts toward EMDRIA certification requirements

  • Is provided by an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant

  • Focuses on thoughtful, clinically grounded EMDR practice

The difference between options is structure—not eligibility.

Not Sure Which Option Fits?

  • Choose Studio Hours if you need flexibility

  • Choose the Certification Circle if you want consistency

  • You can move between options as your needs change

Just Finished Basic Training?

If you’ve recently completed EMDR Basic Training and are beginning to integrate EMDR into your work, Basic Training Group Consultation is also available and designed specifically for early implementation support.

Thinking about certification after your basic training?

If you’ve already done your basic 10 hours of consultation, you might consider EMDRIA Certification. As an Approved Consultant, I can provide all 20 of your hours (I do require at least 10 hours with me to write your letter).

Not sure if certification is worth it? Here’s why therapists go for it:

  • Professional credibility: Certification distinguishes you as a skilled EMDR therapist and signals commitment to best practices.

  • Better clinical skills: More hours + feedback refine your technique and prepare you for complex cases.

  • Career opportunities: Certified therapists often see more referrals, expand their network, and can move into teaching, consulting, or leadership roles.

  • Ongoing growth: EMDRIA requires continuing education, so you stay current with advances in trauma treatment.

  • Potential financial benefits: Specialized expertise can allow for higher fees and better client outcomes (hello, word-of-mouth referrals).
