HOW OUR EMDR BASIC TRAINING DIFFERS

EMPOWER Training, Consulting and Therapy LLC guides and teaches you how to create a sense of safety with you so that the real work can be done.  Our current national and international pandemic and all that accompanies these uncertain times, requires skills and tools that clients can take home with them and expand their window of tolerance by utilizing what you will be able to teach them. In addition, we teach you how to keep your patients contained to a recent, present, future OR a past trigger, hence meeting them where they are willing and ready to go.  There are a lot of EMDR Basic Trainings out there and not all of them include the 10 hours of consultation required to complete the course in the price of one!  Do your research and reach out with any questions you might have before signing up for a training! Looking forward to seeing you there!

HELPING TO MAINTAIN BEHAVIOR CHANGE

Picture

As a society, we can be so focused on motivation and behavior change when someone is beginning their journey, however we assume that once someone is in action, they will stay there. This review looks at what helps people maintain their behavior change long term. Knowing these things can help us, as helpers, clinicians, practitioners, engage our clients in a motivational interviewing conversation to elicit these facets and support maintenance of their behavior change.
