About the Course

Course Details

This course blends EMDR with Art Therapy to deepen interventions and client outcomes. Small group format (max 10) for interactive learning.

Ideal for EMDR therapists, art therapists, and practitioners interested in integrative methods. Led by Lee Anna Simmons (EMDR Europe accredited Consultant, HCPC registered Art Psychotherapist).

Includes foundational concepts: relaxation, resourcing, bilateral stimulation with art, Flash/Blink technique, and walking methods. Covers history taking, boundaries, and ethical discussions.

This course does not qualify you as an EMDR or Art Therapist but offers ethical applications of integrated techniques.

EMDR’s 8-phase protocol is explored through an art lens, including interweaves, vicarious trauma, and therapist self-care.

CPD Credits: 10 hours Art Therapy / Psychotherapy CPD, 9 EMDR UK & Europe CPD points (TBC)
