Webinar Intensive EMDR in residential care
September 5, 2023
Webinar Intensive EMDR in residential care will discuss how EMDR therapy can be delivered to children and young people in residential care. We will discuss how to prepare the children and young people, how to assess whether they are ready for EMDR, and how the residential staff can support the EMDR therapy. We will also discuss the desensitization phase (phase 4) where intense fear, strong abreactions such as intense fear, anger, dissociation, and physical reactions can complicate processing. We will also discuss the advantages of doing daily intensive EMDR. Active ESTD members will receive a 10% discount.

October 16, 2023
Chronically traumatized young people who self-harm or are suicidal, often have trauma in their history that make them feel guilty and ashamed. However addressing the trauma can feel risky because we don’t want to make things worse or have the young person end up in crisis. Trying to stabilise the young person’s situation can be difficult or take a long time. In this webinar Arianne will discuss how to assess the risk for a young person to start with EMDR, what is needed in preparation and how to set up the EMDR processing in a safe way. She will also elaborate on Shapiro’s plateaus of processing and how to use this framework to understand why the client is stuck and which interweaves to use in which part of the processing. Active ESTD members will receive a 10% discount.
