EMDR Specific Consultation
Tricia strongly believes in EMDR’s ability to make a difference in the lives of clients and loves supporting other therapists to become EMDRIA certified, a consultant-in-training, or a consultant themselves. Tricia has special interests and training in the integration of EMDR with somatic approaches to healing trauma, such as (IFS) Internal Family Systems, trauma-informed yoga, & mindfulness.

Tricia provides clear feedback along with demonstrations and enjoys collaborating with consultees on how to best serve the unique possibilities found in each client-therapist relationship. She particularly enjoys helping therapists with their own reactivity with clients so that the work can be more productive and satisfying.
The emphasis during EMDR consultation is on conceptualizing each case from the foundation of the standard protocol, and utilizing specialized protocols and other methods when necessary. You will find an environment where questions and mistakes are expected, and welcomed, as opportunities for growth and learning.

I really enjoyed Tricia's EMDR consultation groups. It was very interesting to learn about techniques that others use in EMDR and hear from Tricia and her wealth of experience. The cost was reasonable and she is professional. I would recommend her as a consultant to others.

Tricia was excellent! She was calm and patient with my endless questions during our time and provided amazing insight, tools, and support during challenging cases. Group consultations were very beneficial, hearing from others and how they approached their complex cases, helped me normalize the EMDR process and view it from another perspective.
-Laura G.
I had a very positive experience in group consultation with Tricia. I appreciated that she allowed consultees to share their knowledge and experience as well as provided guidance when consultees did not have suggestions for particular EMDR issues. Tricia always provided a warm, kind presence in consultation and it made me feel safe to ask her questions about really anything. I would definitely do a consultation with her again! 🙂
