EMDR Consultation Services for Therapists

The goal of EMDR consultation should not just be to clock the necessary hours required, but to gain more confidence, competence, and skill to match the passion you already bring into the therapy room with your clients. Michelle Richardson is a Certified EMDR Therapist and EMDRIA Approved Consultant. She offers individual and group EMDR consultation services for therapists working towards certification or those wanting to refresh and fine-tune their skills. Michelle’s clinical framework is both attachment based and embedded with concepts from IFS Therapy.

Michelle has been greatly influenced by the work of Deany Laliotis, a Senior Trainers and Director of Training for the EMDR Institute and participated in a consultation group with Deany for two years. She has also benefited from the the guidance of Dr. Steven Silver, another senior faculty member of the EMDR Institute and psychologist specializing in working with military clients and their families.  Michelle is additionally Level I & II trained in Internal Family Systems Therapy and is incredibly grateful to be mentored by Bruce Hersey, known for creating the IFS-Informed EMDR interweave. She has been a featured speaker on the  Woman Worriers Podcast with Elizabeth Cush, LCPC, Episode 56 where she shares about IFS Therapy.

EMDR consultation meetings, offered in person or virtually, are an opportunity to gain clarity and direction with even the most difficult cases. As your comfort and skill level with EMDR improves, you will learn to more intuitively respond and attune to your clients, overcome barriers and blocks, and more efficiently support them on their healing journey.
