Welcome to
Diverse and Thriving Counseling
EMDR Consultation
Whether you're working toward EMDRIA Certification or looking to strengthen your clinical use of EMDR, I offer individual and group consultation tailored to your goals. As a Certified EMDR Therapist and EMDRIA Consultant-in-Training™, I focus on helping clinicians maintain fidelity to the EMDR model, develop confidence with cognitive interweaves, and integrate trauma-informed care into their practice with flexibility and skill.
Consultation is provided under the mentorship of EMDRIA Approved Consultant Thomas Zimmerman, LPCC.
Per EMDRIA guidelines: A Consultant-in-Training™ (CIT) can provide up to 15 of the 20 consultation hours required for EMDRIA Certification™. The remaining 5 hours must come from an EMDRIA Approved Consultant™.
If you'd like to use my approved consultant, Thomas Zimmerman, he will require that you do at least 5 hours of consultation with him prior to writing the letter of recommendation for certification. Here is a link to schedule with him https://emdrtom.com/schedule-a-consultation-with-tom/.

-
EMDR-trained therapists seeking EMDRIA Certification
-
Clinicians wanting to deepen their trauma work or refine skills
-
Therapists interested in enhancing their use of interweaves, floatbacks, and resourcing
-
Those seeking an affirming space to reflect on identity and trauma dynamics
Speciality Focus:
While I welcome a range of consultation topics, my primary clinical specialty is trauma and complex traumas—specifically sexual trauma, including childhood abuse/neglect, and sexual assault.
