This in-person certification course focuses on practical skills: After an overview and demonstration of each technique, you will practice in pairs or small groups under the supervision of Matthias Behrends. Much of the theory is covered via the Online Academy (access included).
Essential Techniques for Emotional Stabilization, Distancing and Containment
Emotional Self-Stabilization for Mental Health Professionals
High-Intensity EMDR Protocols
Cutting-Edge Imagery and Hypnosis Techniques
Intensive Training Atmosphere with max. 20 Participants
It is not necessary to have prior experience with EMDR or hypnosis.
We believe in open access to education. Therefore, we do not limit participation based on previous qualifications. However, the techniques demonstrated and practiced in this course are designed to deal with emotional trauma. Anyone can learn them. However, it is your responsibility to determine if you can or should work with emotionally traumatized people and if you meet the legal requirements in your jurisdiction. In other words: Taking this course does not make you a therapist if you're not already one!
