EMDR-GRIEF Trained Group Consultation July 22, 2026

Continue developing confidence and competence in the application of EMDR-GRIEF.

This advanced consultation group is designed exclusively for clinicians who have completed EMDR-GRIEF training and are looking for ongoing support integrating the approach into their clinical work.

Each session begins with a focused review of a specific aspect of the EMDR-GRIEF approach, followed by consultation, case discussion, and opportunities to ask questions related to your grief work. The goal is to deepen understanding of the protocol, strengthen clinical decision-making, and support effective application with clients experiencing grief and loss.

Topics may include:

• Grief case conceptualization using TAAPS+

• Target sequencing and treatment planning using TAAPS+

• Continuing bonds and adaptive connection with the deceased

• Readiness, pacing, and stabilization considerations

• Restrictive, contained, and standard BLS processing approaches

• Cognitive interweaves in grief work

• Working with different types of grief

• Enrichment phase considerations

• Future scene targets vs future templates

• Clinical challenges, troubleshooting, and common pitfalls

Participants are encouraged to bring questions, clinical challenges, and cases for discussion. Consultation is intended to be collaborative, practical, and grounded in real-world application of the EMDR-GRIEF approach.

Important Information Regarding Consultation Hours

Because this group is open to a larger number of participants than permitted under EMDRIA consultation standards, participation in this group cannot be counted toward EMDRIA certification or consultant-in-training consultation requirements.

These meetings are intended as an affordable opportunity for ongoing learning, discussion, and support related to the EMDR-GRIEF approach.

Clinicians seeking consultation hours toward EMDR certification are encouraged to register for Krista Helman’s EMDR consultation groups, which are limited to a maximum of four participants per session and are specifically designed to meet EMDRIA consultation requirements.

Who Can Attend?

Clinicians who have successfully completed EMDR-GRIEF training.
