EMDR Training
Although I have taken many trainings over the years, I have chosen the EMDR framework as my home. It is the “2×4’s” that support the work I do and teach. Although it offers a frame, it is not a cookie cutter, and requires considerable skill and a dedication to learning on the part of the therapist. Therapeutic attunement is required, not optional. Mirror neurons are constantly at work.
If you have a curiosity about basic training in this area see the link below to The Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy created by Deany Laliotis, LCSW.

Hypnosis
Hypnosis is about using language in a surgically precise manner. Every therapist, regardless of orientation would benefit from learning the basic principles of spoken and unspoken communication. We have all been in a conversation where the words a person says to us differ from what their posture/tone/behavior communicates. Which do we believe?
In a therapeutic context the therapist must be aware of the many messages that are being sent – spoken and unspoken and have a way to craft their own use of language to facilitate the treatment goals.
