Come as you are — bring your clinical mess and your magic. Let’s build your confidence, your flow, and your voice as an EMDR clinician.
This Isn’t Your Average Consultation Group
You’re not here just to check a box for EMDRIA. You’re here because you want to master this work — to feel confident, creative, and clinically grounded when things get messy in the room. You’re looking for a comprehensive certification experience that deepens your understanding of EMDR, expands your clinical intuition, and builds lasting confidence with even your most complex clients. This group provides all consultation needed for EMDRIA certification.
I’m Jen Viola — EMDR Consultant-in-Training (CIT), trauma therapist, and ADHDer.
I specialize in complex trauma, OCD (I-CBT + EMDR), phobias, anxiety, and those brilliantly complex clients who never seem to fit in the manual. I also run EMDR Intensives and extended sessions designed to reach the root of stuck patterns fast. I integrate the Safe and Sound Protocol, and I’m currently completing certification in Neurofeedback to further support nervous system regulation.
My style? Relational. Raw. Real. I bring humor, authenticity, and a “let’s-get-in-the-mud-and-figure-it-out” energy to every consult.
Who This Group Is For
This certification track is designed for EMDR-trained clinicians who want more than the basics — clinicians who are:
Working toward EMDRIA Certification and ready for a structured, supportive path
Looking to refine fidelity while developing flexibility and flow
Ready to integrate parts work, somatic awareness, and attachment-based strategies
Navigating looping, blocked processing, and dysregulation in complex cases
Wanting to reclaim confidence, creativity, and ease in reprocessing
Seeking community, consultation, and mentorship that feels authentic — not clinical theater.
No ivory tower. No judgment. No performative “expert” energy.
Just a collaborative, gritty-and-growth-oriented space where we dive deep, stay curious, and make EMDR feel alive again.
You’ll walk away with:
A grounded understanding of EMDR fidelity, flexibility, and case conceptualization
Strategies for complex trauma and blocked processing that you can use right away
Supportive feedback that strengthens both your skills and your confidence
Tools for integrating somatic, attachment, and nervous-system-based approaches
Permission to be both clinical and human — competent and real
Individual EMDR Consultation
Grounded. Gritty. Growth.
Let’s do the deep work — together.
This isn’t your average consultation.
You’re not here for cookie-cutter advice or someone reading from the manual. You're here because you want to grow — as a clinician, a human, and a healing presence for your clients. You want nuance. You want confidence. You want someone who actually gets it.
I’m Jen — a Consultant-in-Training (CIT) in EMDR, trauma therapist, and ADHDer. I specialize in complex trauma, phobias, OCD (using I-CBT + EMDR), anxiety, and those beautifully chaotic clients who don’t fit neatly into any box. I also run EMDR intensives and offer extended/2-day sessions that cut through the noise and get to the core fast. I utilize the Safe and Sound Protocol and am working towards certification in Neurofeedback. My clinical style is relational, raw, and real — with a splash of humor and zero pretense.
Who I work with:
I support EMDR-trained clinicians who are…
Working toward EMDRIA Certification
Feeling unsure about fidelity or “doing it right” (spoiler: you probably are)
Looking to integrate parts work, somatic strategies, or attachment-focused models
Wondering how the hell to work with looping, blocked processing, or when a client’s window of tolerance disappears mid-set
Curious about I-CBT and OCD-specific protocols
Tired of white-knuckling their way through reprocessing and want more flow
What to expect:
No ivory tower. No judgment. Just a collaborative, laid-back space where you can bring your messy sessions, your clinical doubts, your badass wins — all of it. You’ll walk away with:
Concrete clinical strategies you can use right away
A better understanding of case conceptualization (especially for complex/“stuck” cases)
Reassurance that you’re not alone in the chaos
Permission to be both competent and human
