Laurel Parnells Attachment – Focused EMDR Course

Help your clients move beyond the tyranny of their traumatic histories…

Dr. Laurel Parnell, world-renowned leader and innovator in the field of Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), offers us a way to embrace two often separate worlds of knowing: the science of early attachment relationships and the practice of healing within an EMDR framework.

In this masterfully presented intensive online course, Dr. Parnell combines attachment theory (one of the most dynamic theoretical areas in psychotherapy today) with EMDR to teach you a groundbreaking way to heal your clients struggling with relational trauma and attachment deficits.

Your clients no longer have to be overwhelmed by the uncontrollable intensity of past trauma…
