EMDR Consultation for Therapists
Deepen Your Practice. Reclaim Your Confidence.
EMDR Therapy Is More Than A Protocol
EMDR is a powerful clinical framework that can create meaningful and lasting change for clients. But learning EMDR and truly feeling confident using it in real sessions are two different things.
Whether you are newly trained and feeling unsure where to start, or you were trained years ago and want to begin using EMDR again, consultation provides the support, structure, and clinical guidance needed to build confidence and competence in your work.
I provide EMDR consultation for clinicians working toward certification as well as clinicians who want to strengthen their EMDR skills and case conceptualization.
Let's Move Beyond the Script
Many clinicians feel stuck in the mechanics of the 8 phases or worry that they are “doing it wrong.” You may have a client who isn't progressing as expected, find yourself unsure which memories to target, or question whether you're applying the EMDR protocol correctly.
Consultation is a space to slow down, ask questions, and deepen your understanding of the model so you can use EMDR more naturally and confidently in your sessions.
A Consultation can help you:
-
Refresh the fundamentals of the 8-phase protocol
-
Build confidence using EMDR with real clients
-
Move beyond script anxiety
-
Strengthen case conceptualization
-
Integrate the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model into your clinical decision-making
-
Work toward EMDRIA certification
-
Discuss complex or stuck cases
-
Develop your own clinical style within the EMDR model
My goal is to help you feel grounded, competent, and supported in your EMDR work so you can show up for your clients with clarity and confidence.
Who EMDR Consultation Is For
Therapists Seeking EMDR Certification
You have completed EMDR Basic Training and are working toward certification. I provide structured consultation to help you log hours, strengthen your clinical skills, and prepare for certification with confidence.
Clinicians Seeking Confidence Using EMDR
You completed training but do not use EMDR often, feel unsure about the protocol, or struggle to integrate EMDR into your sessions. Consultation can help bridge the gap between training and real-world practice.
Clinicians Working with Complex Trauma Cases
If you are working with complex trauma, dissociation, or clients who feel “stuck,” consultation can help with case conceptualization and treatment planning.
About Erin Gardner-Flores, LCSW
EMDRIA Approved Consultant & Faculty at The Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy
I provide EMDR consultation to clinicians working toward EMDR certification and clinicians seeking additional support in their EMDR practice.
I also practice what I preach and continue to expand my own understanding of EMDR. I am currently receiving mentorship from Deany Laliotis, which allows me to provide consultation that is grounded in current EMDR practices, strong clinical conceptualization, and a trauma-informed approach.
Whether you're working toward certification or looking for guidance with a challenging case, our time together is focused on the questions and clinical situations you're navigating in your practice.
EMDR Consultation Options and Investment
I offer individual and small-group EMDR consultation, depending on your experience, goals, and the type of support you're looking for. Both formats are available to EMDR-trained therapists who want to strengthen their skills or work toward EMDRIA certification.
Individual EMDR Consultation
Individual consultation gives us dedicated time to review your clinical questions, discuss challenging cases, and strengthen your understanding of EMDR treatment. We will focus on the areas where you need the most support.
60-Minute Sessions:
-
$150 per session
-
$125 per session for therapists currently participating in my group consultation
Individual sessions are typically scheduled within 2–3 weeks.
Group EMDR Consultation
Group consultation offers an opportunity to learn from other EMDR therapists while receiving guidance on your own clinical work. Groups are limited to four participants, allowing time for meaningful case discussion, questions, and individualized feedback.
Each group meets monthly for five 2-hour sessions. Groups are closed, meaning you'll continue meeting with the same therapists throughout the program.

-
Five 2-hour sessions, meeting monthly
-
Maximum of four therapists
-
Closed-group format
-
New groups open 2–4 times per year
