Tuesday, April 24, 2018 · 9:00am to 5:15pm
Note: Training only offered at the conference site in Natick, MA
Individual EMDR treatment in emergency and disaster situations is often not available to meet the need or preferable.
The accessibility of EMDR therapy in emergency and disaster situations is often limited by the shortage of trained clinicians immediately available when relatively large numbers of trauma victims are involved. This workshop presents a new practical group application of the EMDR R-TEP, the G-TEP (Group Traumatic Episode Protocol) –with its worksheet format for simplified utilization in emergency situations.
The G-TEP will be taught with power point presentation, video illustrations and practices. The EMDR R-TEP and G-TEP have shown beneficial results in controlled studies.
Objectives – Participants will be able to:
- Identify and comprehend key features, procedures and concepts of the Group Traumatic Episode Protocol (G-TEP)
