Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing is a scientific method with more supporting and corroborating research than any other form of psychological treatment in this field. This means that EDMR workshops can lead to curing traumatised patients and can directly improve their lives. This process accelerates the healing time after a traumatic event and can result in a normal, healthy life again with longstanding effects.
This is why it is the psychological technique of choice for thousands of therapists who have made use of EDMR workshops. The therapists also benefit from the fact that the EDMR treatment makes use of similar psychological techniques as well as new ones, which eases them into the training.

Of course, EDMR requires a great degree of dedication and ability, not to mention clinical experience in mental health. Typically if you have a background in psychiatry, psychology, or mental health nursing with relevant training, you will qualify to train. Similarly, Occupational and Art Therapists must be able to present evidence of relevant experience and qualifications.
Psychotherapists and counselors must be accredited by a recognised body to train on EDMR UK courses. GPs can also qualify for the course if they are a member of the General Medical Council and who have experience in psychological trauma or are working to gain accreditation in the field. There are other people who can apply for EDMR UK courses, but they may have to submit their application along with a covering letter detailing their relevant experience to the EDMR course convener.
EDMR training will typically include workshops with senior professionals who are dedicated to the field and who have a longstanding experience with EDMR which qualifies them to disseminate best practice through their experience. Many of them have been trained by Dr Francine Shapiro, the scientist who first observed the effect in 1987.
