EMDR Phase 1: EMDR Treatment Plan for PTSD

Описание: Learn how to create a clear, organized EMDR master treatment plan in Phase 1 of therapy.

In this video, Cassandra Cannon, Ph.D., EMDRIA Consultant and APA-Approved Sponsor of Continuing Education for Psychologists, walks through the essential components of EMDR treatment planning—from diagnosis and goals to history-taking, assessment tools, and coordination of care.

You’ll see how a well-structured Master Treatment Plan supports every stage of EMDR and helps clients understand their healing trajectory.

In this lesson you’ll learn:
• How to document goals, objectives, and interventions
• What to include in your EMDR Phase 1 assessment
• How to evaluate dissociation, attachment style, and readiness
• Why treatment plans must adapt to clinical barriers or progress
• How to prepare clients for EMDR processing (Phases 2–8)

If you’re a clinician refining your EMDR practice, this overview will help you connect theory, documentation, and trauma-informed care.
