$20.00

Presented by Laura M Schmuldt, PhD, Dr. Julie Quigley, and Angela Cross, LMHC

Recorded live on Thursday, November 16th, 2023

Access provided upon registration on “My Courses page 

Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic modality that involves a trained clinician guiding a group of participants through a structured process of trauma processing and healing. Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Group Traumatic Event Processing (G-TEP) are empirically supported treatments for trauma (Tsouvelas et al., 2019). This presentation will provide an overview of how EMDR can be adapted for groups, particularly following crises and disasters in communities. An optional, experiential hands-on EMDR activity for participants will be included.

In this session, we will explore the sequela of trauma with a specific focus on traumatic events experienced by groups. The audience will learn the research related to these approaches, who EMDR is appropriate for, and ways to find an EMDR clinician. During the session, participants will learn the basics of Group EMDR protocols and engage online or in-person bilateral stimulation techniques aimed to help reduce distress and reprocess daily annoyances to traumatic memories, fostering emotional healing and resilience. Finally, participants will be invited to engage in an experiential G-TEP activity.
