EMDR Workshop with Ad de Jongh and Suzy Matthijssen

A key component of case conceptualization is determining priorities for which target memories to reprocess. There are a variety of proven targeting strategies that create efficient “routes” for adaptive memory reprocessing and bring optimal relief of clinical symptoms. This training will guide EMDR clinicians to determine which target selection is most fitting for each client at any moment in time. Participants will be taught how to carry out case conceptualization and develop different targeting plans. By practicing with the material in groups participants will acquire the competences and master the material to become more effective in applying EMDR therapy.
