EMDR-GRIEF

About this event

8:45am to 4:30pm CDT

Available for EMDR trained clinicians, this advanced training is a specialized protocol that integrates EMDR with grief-focused strategies to address barriers such as trauma and attachment wounds. It supports clients across the spectrum of grief—past, present, and future—by fostering meaning-making, emotional integration, and a renewed internal connection to loss, while embracing After-Death Communication (ADC) as a natural healing phenomenon.

This is a hybrid workshop. You may attend either in-person or virtually via Zoom. In-person attendees will be provided with a continental breakfast and afternoon refreshments.

This workshop is approved for 12 CE credits and is approved for 12 EMDRIA credits. For informational purposes, all registrants may view a recording of the workshop for 60 days following the event. CEs and EMDRIA credits are only available for full Live attendance.
