Re: trying to find clinician with appropriate training/have other questions, too!

EMDR certification is a new process and many certified EMDR therapists have not yet received written confirmation of their certification.

EMDR therapy is a comprehensive therapy that can be used with all clients. There are aspects of this therapy that are used at different times and in different ways depending on the needs of the client.

The decision on whether or not to include your on-going therapist in your EMDR session depends on several factors. It will be important for you to share your thoughts and concerns with the therapist of your choice.

If you do not feel comfortable having a consulting EMDR therapist present in your session, you have a right to express your opinion and explore other options or other therapists.

EMDR sessions are frequently scheduled for 90 minutes.
