Online therapy has become the norm for many clinicians, and there are many benefits to this, including improved access to care for some of the clients who need it the most. However, given that online therapy, or telemental health, is still in its early stages, some providers feel uncertain about how, or even whether, to provide some types of psychotherapy virtually. This seminar presents to attendees several quick strategies for integrating EMDR and NDIT (Neural Desensitization and Integration Training) skills in your online therapy work. And, no training in EMDR or NDIT is required, as these techniques can be incorporated into any therapy approach!

Many courses teach clinicians how to conduct EMDR with adults. However, very few seminars focus on EMDR modifications for children, leading some clinicians to feel hesitant about using these evidence-based skills with young clients who may greatly benefit from them! This three-hour seminar focuses on practical EMDR skills for the treatment of children, ages 3-15, who have experienced trauma or psychological injury. It assumes that attendees have completed general/basic EMDR training, and is tailored to clinicians who want to broaden and deepen their EMDR skill set in creative and effective ways. After completing this seminar, clinicians will be equipped to help children desensitize to and process distressing memories in a gentle, titrated manner that prioritizes resourcing.

When clients experience overwhelming grief or moral injury after trauma, it can create difficult roadblocks to recovery. Many clinicians struggle with how to help clients navigate feelings related to “survivor’s guilt,” self-blame, or shame, which can feel intractable. This seminar presents to attendees nine steps for addressing, managing, and reducing moral injury, which can occur when clients believe that a trauma was a result of their own actions (and, sometimes it is).
**This is a 1.5-CE noninteractive, self-paced online video course delivered in home study format via an industry-standard online learning platform**
Agenda:
00:00 – 00:30: Moral Injury Following Traumatic Events
00:30 – 01:00: Therapy and Healing – Treating Moral Injury
01:00 – 01:40: Building Resilience
Objectives:
This training will provide participants clinical knowledge and tools to:
a). After completing this training, participants will be able to define “moral injury” and name at least two populations who tend to experience moral injury.
b). After completing this training, participants will be able to state the nine steps for working therapeutically with moral injury.
c). After completing this training, participants will be able to identify one way in which moral injury differs from PTSD.
Target Audience:
