Case Consultation focuses on developing mastery of EMDR therapy and integrating EMDR into one’s clinical practice. Contrasted with supervision, the practitioner remains responsible for the therapeutic relationship and the competency in the therapy they provide – one of the reasons that EMDR is considered an advanced psychotherapy.
Case Consultation is arranged directly with case consultants and you will be directed to a list of possible consultants.
Please note: Supervision is also available but cannot be counted as case consultation hours. Please email to discuss this.
Case consultation can take place in person in Lake Macquarie or online. Individual and Group case consultation is available.
