Welcome to the EMDR Consultation Corner, hosted by Maraeca Butler and Christina Allen. This podcast is for therapists who want to think more deeply about EMDR and the clinical decisions that shape the work. Through honest conversations, clinical insights, and practical discussion, we explore the foundations of EMDR psychotherapy and the places where the work gets more nuanced, complex, and interesting.
This is a space to deepen your understanding, strengthen your clinical thinking, and continue developing your own unique approach to EMDR. Because becoming a skilled EMDR therapist is about more than following steps, it’s about understanding the therapy well enough to make thoughtful, clinically grounded decisions for the clients in front of you.
