 EMDR Consultation

I am currently a Consultant In Training (CIT) approved by EMDRIA, and I also offer general case consultation unrelated to EMDR. I’ve been in the field of therapy since 2013. Whether you're working toward your certification or just need a second set of eyes on a complex case, I'd love to connect and see if we'd be a good fit.

Consulting Philosophy

I am not an *expert* on any specific populations, though I have a lot of experience working with adult survivors of childhood trauma. 

Therapy, and thus, consulting about therapy is wildly specific. Each person comes in with their unique story into the therapy room and hopes to be met as a person, not a case. 

I think there's something beautiful about not knowing, in that we enter with humility.

I enter into the consultation room with this attitude: 

I'm here for this particular therapist, working with this particular client. How can we create something together with us three particular humans? (Consultant, therapist, and client- even if they aren’t physically present.) 

I truly believe that we are meant to be here, working on this healing together. So my question coming into a consultation is: how do we explore from the particulars, not the generalizations? 

Certification Hours

If you're on the path to EMDR certification and need consultation hours that meet EMDRIA requirements, I have hours available. We'll work through cases together in a way that supports your growth as an EMDR clinician, strategically going through the material you need to be able to confidently check the boxes when it comes to submitting your application for EMDR certification.

Feel free to reach out with any questions or to find out about availability. The best way to get in touch with me is to send me an email directly: hello@convergencetraumatherapy.com and put “EMDR consultation” in the subject line.

Rates

Individual Consultation: $250/60 minutes or a package of 5 for $1,000

Group size may range from 2-4 participants for consultation hours that count toward certification.

My Clinical Experience

I work with adults, both men and women, and couples as well as individuals. I have training in EFT (Emotion Focused Couples Therapy) and Somatic work in addition to EMDR and other trauma-informed modalities including ego states/parts work. As an MFT, I was trained in Systems theory, so that informs my case conceptualization as well.

Using the AIP model as a base, I also integrate attachment work, parts work, and somatic work in my EMDR therapy with clients. I often use interweaves that sound more like an attachment interweave or somatic interweave, (in comparison to cognitive interweaves, the way that many of us are trained in Basic Training.)

I am a lifelong learner, and I view every experience as a learning opportunity.

What other professionals Have to Say about molly’s clinical skills:

“I have loved having the opportunity to refer to Molly for EMDR intensive work. I have referred clients to Molly for a few different reasons. Sometimes a client has wanted to do EMDR on their own, but hasn’t wanted to end our work together, so referring out for EMDR has been a supplemental piece to our work. Other times, a client has continued to bump up against past trauma in our work, and it seemed like some focused work on the trauma (via EMDR) could benefit the client. I have appreciated Molly’s coordination of care and her desire to kindly and compassionately step into specific areas of my client’s story with focused and strategic processes and skills.

What other professionals Have to Say about molly’s consultation skills:

“Molly has a very helpful perspective in case consultation and is skilled in coaching clinicians who feel stuck.

— Jessie Berg, Central Phoenix Therapy

“Molly is extremely knowledgeable and truly understands the complexities of using EMDR with clients. She is detail-oriented without getting bogged down by the details. She’s very able to pull out what’s most helpful during consultation so that you have a clear plan moving forward. She’s a great listener and a great teacher - highly recommend!
