EMDR for hypnotherapists – live online
EMDR for hypnotherapists
Integrating Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing into hypnotherapy practice
EMDR is one of the most powerful and well-researched methods for resolving trauma, anxiety, and emotionally charged memories. This CPD training has been created for qualified and trainee hypnotherapists who want to confidently integrate EMDR into their sessions and expand their therapeutic toolkit in a safe, effective, and ethical way.
EMDR is formally recognised and supported by a large body of research for:
- PTSD
- single-event trauma
- complex trauma
- anxiety disorders
- panic attacks
- phobias
EMDR is also widely used in clinical practice to support clients with issues such as unresolved grief, low confidence, shame, health anxiety, intrusive thoughts, performance anxiety, stress responses, and long-standing emotional triggers.
The course is led by Marcia Eden, MSc, an experienced hypnotherapist, counsellor, and coach, with over 23 years of experience helping clients. She has also run a hypnotherapy training school for over 10 years, and offers many CPD courses to hypnotherapists.
Marcia has been trained in and has used EMDR for more than 12 years, successfully combining it with hypnotherapy within her own practice to help clients achieve rapid and lasting transformation. Her practical, grounded teaching style makes EMDR accessible, structured, and easy to integrate into the work you already do.
