EMDR therapy is a comprehensive psychotherapy that accelerates the treatment of a wide range of symptoms and clinical issues including those related to disturbing events and present life conditions.

EMDR therapy is guided by the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) Theory, which posits that unprocessed memories appear to set the basis for a wide range of clinical symptomatology, with the exception of pathology originating from organic dysfunction.

A number of neurophysiological studies have documented the rapid post treatment EMDR therapy effects.

The EMDR Therapy Basic Training is designed for mental health practitioners who treat clients of all ages.

This is a developmentally grounded training, to treat clients from infants to adults with a variety of symptom presentations.

This interactional, standardized therapy has been empirically tested in over 30 randomized controlled studies with trauma patients, and hundreds of published case reports evaluating a considerable range of presenting complaints, including acute stress, PTSD, depression, anxiety, phobias, excessive grief, somatic conditions and addictions.

Any cancellation request made by 30 DAYS before a training course's start date will receive a refund minus $150 administration fee. The training course's start date is defined as Part 1's start date for a Full Course/Refresher Course Cancellation, or Part 2's start date for a Part 2 Course Cancellation. After those dates, no refunds will be made, but you may transfer to a different training location, if space allows, for a $150 administration fee. This includes cancellations due to weather, related issues, or any other reason.  NOTE: There will be no refunds, under any circumstances, for withdrawals after the beginning of the training program.

Once the training starts there are no transfers or refunds allowed. In the case of an emergency, illness, or other issue, SFG may allow the training dates to be made up, at the sole discretion of SFG for $250 per day missed. Any partial day missed will be counted toward a full day. Missing more than one day or partial day could result in immediate dismissal from the training program and forfeiture of all tuition paid.

If you choose to begin training with the online training that is considered the beginning of your training.

If you do not attend the training there will be no refunds, transfers or make-up allowed.

If you are more than 10 minutes late or leave more than 10 minutes prior to the end of the training, you may be allowed to make up the “consultation” portion of what you missed with an additional fee. A minimum of 20 minutes will be required to be purchased to make up the time.

There is no partial credit given for any portion of the training completed if you do not complete the entire training.
