What clinician's are saying about the course
"I really appreciated how clearly these concepts were described and discussed, both in terms of the topics and concepts themselves, as well as the structure and considerations of the broader work itself. I thought that her discussion around session structure was particularly helpful- I can see how beneficial and organizing the various measures, tools, and resources can be and the way she demonstrates weaving them into the work with utility and ease is wonderful. I also appreciated her sharing of numerous resources- from resources for consideration in session to trainings and readings- they all seem valuable, pertinent, and worth exploring further." -Alex T, 2024 "This was a truly insightful overview of psycholytic EMDR. The practical examples and tools were particularly impactful, as was the thoughtful attention paid to the ethical considerations and potential for misuse of psychedelics. I especially appreciated the helpful information on harm reduction, consent with parts work, and strategies for discussing potential client difficulties. The extensive resources and the emphasis on collaboration were also extremely beneficial." Emily R, 2025 "I found it particularly helpful to understand the link between ketamine's effects and a client's increased readiness for EMDR, and the potential for reduced reliance on bilateral stimulation. Gail's sharing of her client assessment tools was a great resource, and her clear explanation of adjunctive intensive models versus the trauma integration protocol in ketamine assisted processing therapy was very informative." -Edward K, 2024
