Welcome back to Therapy Chat! This week host Laura Reagan, LCSW-C interviews Rotem Brayer, M.Ed, LPC, who is a licensed professional counselor, certified EMDR therapist, EMDR consultant, and advanced EMDR trainer. He is the founder of The EMDR Learning Community (emdr-learning.com), a community that brings EMDR therapists together and provides education on EMDR therapy and the integration of this modality with other treatment approaches. As the co-founder of EMDR Denver, a practice that helps clients heal with an “EMDR first” approach, Rotem divides his time between consulting on cases, coaching EMDR therapists, and helping clients heal from the effects of trauma and attachment wounds.
In partnership with the Academy of Therapy Wisdom, I'm excited to invite you to a free webinar offered by my colleague, Juliane Taylor Shore.

Rotem and Laura discussed the art and science of trauma therapy, and how he is working to take EMDR clinicians beyond protocols, so they can work effectively and safely with clients who have attachment wounds, trauma and dissociation. This was such a great conversation that will surely spark many thoughts and ideas for listeners!
