If you intend including EMDR as a service in your practice, you have several ways in which to achieve this. To commence with gaining experience in the field, it is required of you to complete the Basic Training program and thereafter apply for EMDR certification.

Once you have completed the basic training, you will have the opportunity to apply for EMDR certification. This requires a certain level of experience and the fulfillment of certain criteria. The application for the certificate requires the successful completion of the Basic Training program. You will have to provide a certificate to indicate that you have completed this training program.

It is necessary to provide evidence of registration or certification to prove that you are a professional in the field of mental health. You need to provide copies of documents that indicate your ability to practice independently.

To apply, you need to have experience in your chosen practice field of at least two years. This should be relevant to the field of specialty indicated on your registration, license or certificate of professionalism. The documents you provide to prove your professionalism need to be notarized. If you are unable to provide proof of this experience, you have the opportunity to make a statement to this effect in writing and have that document notarized.

A minimum of 50 relevant sessions to at least 25 clients is required to have been conducted by you. It is necessary to provide documents proving that you have completed this requirement. The documents in proof should be notarized. It is possible for you to write down that this requirement has been fulfilled and have the statement notarized. You have the opportunity to combine the statement declaring the two year's experience and the minimum sessions and obtain notarization in one document.

To qualify for the certification, you need to have received at least 20 consultation hours from an Approved Consultant in the field. The consultant will have to provide you with adequate documentation listing the number of individual consultation and group consultation hours you received. If these hours were received from more than a single consultant, you will need to obtain documentation from each of the consultants.

Of the consulting hours you received, at least 10 should be individual and the rest may be allocated to small group hours. The groups should not have been larger than eight participants. These hours should be those you received after you completed the Basic Training.

It is necessary for you to obtain recommendation letters from the Approved Consultants which refer to your use of the service while you were consulting with them. This is required as an attachment to your EMDR certification application. Letters of recommendation are required from both your colleagues and your peers regarding your EMDR use in practice. You also have to provide certificates of completion of further education undertaken in EMDR. The number of hours of further study should not be below 12. Your completion of the Basic Training program does not qualify for this requirement. There are many approved training programs that you are able to undertake that will suffice for this requirement.
