EMDR is not only an evidence-based approach for PTSD, but it’s also been shown to be extremely helpful in the treatment of some anxiety disorders. This 9.75-CE home study course introduces participants to the original 8-phase model of EMDR, and provides instructions for how to utilize EMDR skills to treat generalized anxiety, phobias, and panic.
NOTE: Our EMDR courses, programs, and associated credentials are exclusively affiliated with and available through Mind Works Professional Education, Inc. and Online CE Credits. EMDR certification is provided by various entities across the US and abroad, but continuing education certification is not regulated nor owned by any one particular education provider. Individual state regulatory authorities solely determine scope, competency, and legal right to practice, as is true for any other therapy modality (CBT, DBT, etc.). To determine the quality and legitimacy of your investment, we encourage you to look at the experience and education-level of your trainer, cost of the program, ongoing requirements if there are any, quality-level of the of the learning platform, and established reputation of the education provider.

Our “Memory Reconsolidation Techniques and Interventions for Trauma” course offers essential insights for clinicians seeking to enhance their trauma treatment toolkit. This intermediate-level CE course focuses on the neuroscience of memory reconsolidation and its application in trauma therapy, providing practical tools to help clients recover from PTSD. Ideal for mental health professionals, this training teaches evidence-based interventions to effectively address traumatic memory and improve therapeutic outcomes.
PTSD and other trauma and stressor-related disorders have sometimes been referred to as “memory disorders,” due to the deficits in traumatic memory consolidation observed in those suffering from PTSD. Failed memory reconsolidation contributes to the development of posttrauma symptoms such as intrusive thoughts, dissociation, flashbacks, hypervigilance, nightmares, and other classic PTSD symptoms. Additionally, traumatic memories may be relived, seemingly occurring in the present. However, memory reconsolidation is possible with several therapeutic tools and interventions available to clinicians! This workshop provides an overview of the neuroscience of memory systems and PTSD, and the memory reconsolidation techniques that have been shown to facilitate recovery from PTSD.
**This is a 3-CE noninteractive, self-paced online video course delivered in home study format via an industry-standard online learning platform**
Agenda:
0:00 – 1:20: Introduction and Basic Memory Neuroscience
1:20 – 1:45: Memory Errors
1:45 – 2:30: Neuroscience and Steps of Memory Reconsolidation
2:30 – 3:15: Memory Reconsolidation in Therapy
Objectives:
a). After completing this training, participants will be able to state the main area of the brain involved in the storage of autobiographical, explicit, declarative memory.
b). After completing this training, participants will be able to name at least two types of “memory errors” that can occur during trauma processing.
c). After completing this training, participants will be able to identify one way in which EMDR differs from EFT and Brainspotting.
d). After completing this training, participants will be able to describe one mechanism of action of memory reconsolidation tools.
e). After completing this training, participants will be able to learn and practice at least two basic memory reconsolidation techniques.
