Part 1 Feedback

Thank you for joining us on (or for watching) Unleash Your EMDR Part 1, and here’s where you can (re)view the recordings, and give us always-useful feedback. 

Note that the EMDR Association UK and EMDRIA stipulate that we can issue attendance certificates only to those who have done or viewed the full workshop, including taking part in the live practicums. 

If you were with us live but had to miss any practicums, you can make those good by joining us for a live session workshop later.   

If you don’t want to submit feedback, but qualify for an attendance certificate, you’ll need to email us and ask for one HERE, specifying please in your note which workshop you attended. You can then close this page without proceeding. 

You’ll notice in the form below that there are now several questions around diversity and inclusion, which we are required to include in line with EMDR UK requirements. 

Recordings where relevant are accessible for one month following the event and must under no circumstances be downloaded or captured locally. 

Thanks for taking the time to do this.
