Unleash your EMDR: Advanced Clinical Workshops in Integrative, Attachment-Informed EMDR, with Mark Brayne and Annabel McGoldrick.
Our EMDR Focus workshops give you new opportunities to advance your practical and client-focused skills with EMDR in the UK – and now, excitingly, in Australia and New Zealand as well.
We’re committed to a model of supervision which encourages warmth and dance in support of your journey towards EMDR mastery, while respecting and honouring the structure and focus of EMDR’s Standard Procedural Steps.
EMDR can be very successfully used alongside/in parallel with a client’s other mainstream therapy, as long as this is done with a clear focus and time-limited frame, and with full transparency and agreement between both therapists.
Using EMDR with couples online has been some of the most rewarding therapeutic work we’ve done. We’re preparing a first Unleash your EMDR online workshop to include this in February 2021, and do sign up to the mailing list if you’d like to know more as plans unfold.
With the Corona virus, online EMDR therapy has proven to be highly effective – and in some ways even more powerful than working in-person. Clients now have a massively enhanced choice of practitioners, around the planet and not just nationally. While some therapists might find it less satisfying than in-person sessions, and can’t wait to get back to their consulting rooms, it can nonetheless feel very close and intimate. And at EMDR Focus and Braynework, we now work exclusively online.

With a background in journalism (30 years with Reuters and the BBC, and Cold War postings in Moscow, Berlin, Vienna and Beijing) and in all-too-often bad news, I’m co-Director with my partner Jutta Brayne of both EMDR Focus (as our EMDR training arm), and of our sister company Braynework through which we offer psychotherapy.

I am someone who has really struggled to get going with using EMDR regularly with my patients and clients. I would get hung up on the protocol, struggling with NCs and PCs and SUDs! The key thing I have taken away is this simplified protocol, the concept that it does not have to be difficult, the learning around how the left brain stuff (NCs, SUDs etc) interferes with the right brain process totally made sense and I can see where and why I have been stuck.
Thank you, I think this is really going to make my practice so much more effective for my clients and patients.

A fabulous combination of theory and practice, professionalism and warmth, seriousness and humour … all of which made for a brilliant learning environment. Skillfully done, thank you!

What you’ve taught me has transformed my therapy structure and depth and my clients are healing and transforming so fast I can’t quite believe it and have to pinch myself that it’s true! I can barely wait to learn more AI-EMDR.

I am so glad I volunteered for the demo for two very specific reasons – for myself and also for my practice as an EMDR therapist. As a therapist, the experience was invaluable, to fully experience such a shift for myself, it has increased my confidence greatly in helping clients to achieve big shifts.
I have been using everything I’ve learned and already am starting to see this make an incredible difference to three clients in particular. This is exactly what they needed. It also reinforced for me that as a learner I really need that experiential element to consolidate what I learn by reading.
As an individual, I felt completely held by the process. I appreciated your gentle but completely focused approach. I’m sure you can imagine that this consistent challenge in my life goes through peaks and flows.
As a mother it is a real challenge and I know I have this familial legacy of ploughing through and just getting on with things. It’s easy to get into a groove of doing everything myself and this experience really reminded me that others have lots to offer me that it’s not helpful for me to go it alone psychologically.
The experience was so healing. When we finished that day, I went downstairs and hugged my son for a long time, it felt so different as so much of my anger had just melted away. My heart felt so much more open.
Things have been calmer since we did the workshop and I firmly believe that EMDR session has contributed to that.

After the meeting online with you last week I built myself a virtual studio which has been impressing my clients and giving them a bit of light relief from the life stresses they are all feeling.
Strangely I feel I have made more progress in these sessions than I would have had in-person with the same clients.
So far I have used your method 4 times on online and every time it has worked amazingly !!!! with the SUDs reducing to zero AND a VoC of 7.
I have done a bridge back to early childhood on 3 out of 4 and my most challenging client who has different parts ( I have worked with her for 5 years) made an amazing eureka moment at the end of processing.
I would never have imagined how powerful this work could be online and `I would say to others give it a go- build up your confidence in online work. The EMDR community has been really supportive and I am humbled by all the contributions when we are all under such pressure.

Grateful to your leadership, guidance, and support during this time. Online EMDR has been working awesome!!
I am so pleased with the timing when I attended your workshop in London. Upon returning home, applying the techniques in person and online. It has been a streamline process for me, but having familiarity with zoom and online platforms made the transition much easier. #divinetiming
