EMDR Consultation for Clinicians

Kelly Alpert, LCSW-C is pleased to offer individual and group EMDR consultation for clinicians who are interested in integrating EMDR into their practice and deepening their understanding and application of EMDR as a form of relational psychotherapy. Kelly is mentored by Deany Laliotis, LICSW and Mary French BSN, LCSW-C, two trainers at The Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy.  

 

Through individual consultation, clinicians are able to improve their case conceptualizations and learn how to move clients along through the process of EMDR psychotherapy. EMDR Consultation with Kelly is a good fit for clinicians who are interested in: 

  • Deepening their understanding of EMDR as an internal healing model and a comprehensive, relational treatment

  • Improving Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) case conceptualization skills and distinguishing symptoms from underlying problems

  • Working with attachment and conceptualizing through an attachment lens 

  • Working with complex developmental trauma, sexual trauma, intergenerational and systemic trauma, single-event PTSD, as well as a wide range of mood, anxiety, and personality disorders

  • Identifying and addressing adaptations and defenses that inevitably arise during reprocessing

  • Clinical decision making regarding client readiness for processing, where to begin, treatment planning, and modifying standard protocol

  • Strengthening skills to assess a client’s readiness and needed preparation for EMDR memory reprocessing  

  • Seeking support on specific cases or refining particular phases of EMDR treatment

  • Addressing technical issues

  • Parts work during reprocessing

  • Working with transference and countertransference that arises during reprocessing

  • Building confidence in EMDR and working towards certification

 

Kelly enjoys the collaborative and relational process of consultation and work with clinicians at varying levels of EMDR experience and expertise. She is passionate about supporting clinicians who use EMDR to guide their clients on the path of healing and exclusively works with consultees who are committed to learning and growing in this practice. As your consultant, Kelly will get to know you, how you learn, and what your goals are so you can effectively work together. 

 

Requirements for consultation services: Must have completed EMDRIA approved basic training and carry liability insurance. If working toward certification, consultees must be willing to write up cases and present/review transcripts of EMDR sessions.
