Thanks Nautilus Counseling, LLC!

I spent part of last week attending a training on Integrating Internal Family Systems into your EMDR Practice. I've been interested in IFS for a couple years, and find the application of "parts" theory to EMDR makes so much sense to my brain. I practice EMDR in a way that places extra emphasis on somatic experiences and attachment, which is particularly effective for complex trauma. Adding an IFS lens will help me better serve all of my EMDR clients, especially those with complex trauma histories. Grateful to EMDR & Beyond for providing this opportunity!
