What is EMDR Certification?

EMDR Certification is your next step after completing EMDR Basic Training.

If you have completed an EMDRIA approved EMDR Basic Training, you're ready to take your learning and experience to the next level as a Certified EMDR Therapy clinician.

While your certification is ultimately granted by the EMDR International Association (EMDRIA), you must complete the required consultation hours, along with advanced training, to apply.

That's why EMDR Professional Training offers a full range of certification packages to help you become a Certified EMDR Therapist. Choose from any of our highly qualified EMDRIA approved Consultants to get started. We'll walk you through the entire process, so you can successfully complete the steps for EMDR Certification.

Testimonial

“Dear fellow clinicians, I could not have asked for a better EMDR Certification Program, than the one I just completed at EMDR Professional Training. The staff and trainers at the EMDR Professional Training are empathetic, supportive, and have endless knowledge to ensure you become a skilled clinician in EMDR.

The knowledge and experience I have gained from this course have been transformational for me as a psychotherapist. I have learned so much about the best ways to assist patients in overcoming trauma. It is truly an incredible sight to behold when patients overcome the traumas that plagued them.

The program that Dr. Michelle Gottlieb and Dr. Curt Rouanzoin have created is impeccable. The learning you will gain is infinite and invaluable. I can’t thank Dr. Gottlieb and her staff enough for this wonderful learning experience.

Sooooooo.... if you find yourself on the EMDR Professional Training website, I would say, “Go with that!” You will not regret it! ”

“Very informative and comprehensive.”
