EMDR Book Club

Have you got stacks of EMDR books that you bought with the best of intentions?  Are those books quietly collecting dust on bookshelves in tucked away corners?  Pages and paragraphs skimmed and half-read?  This is my life too!  At this point, some of them seem to just be trauma-informed décor.    

When I first started practising EMDR 10 years ago, I read everything I could get my hands on.  As time has gone by, the internet has gotten faster and I find myself rarely reading actual books. I’ve set a personal intention this year to watch and consume less and read, write, and create more. So out of this emerged the idea for:  EMDR Book Club. 

Each session we will take a deep dive on a chapter or two of an EMDR (or EMDR adjacent) book.  As an EMDR Consultant, I’ll provide guidance, questions, and my thoughts on the material.  I hope the format also fosters rich and meaningful group discussion where we can learn and refresh our knowledge together.    At the moment, my vision is that the group is open invitation – so you can come along when you’re able to or if you can’t make it, I’ll send out the recording.  

Let’s dust off the books, switch on our e-readers, or press play on a long-forgotten audiobook.  Whether you are new to EMDR or a seasoned practitioner  – All Welcome.
