The Standard Protocol in the Treatment of Addiction: Homestudy (with Dr. Jamie Marich & Dr. Stephen Dansiger)
The Standard Protocol in the Treatment of Addiction, a 3 credit hour advanced topics course
A common question asked in the EMDR community is: “What special protocol do you use in treating addiction?” EMDR therapy is a complete system of psychotherapy and ought to be honored as such when conceptualizing cases connected to compulsive behavior, substance use disorders, or other addictions. Which specialty protocol you may or may not use is not nearly as important as EMDR therapists’ understanding the entire clinical picture and the power the EMDR therapy’s standard protocol can play in healing the traumatic underpinnings of addiction. This homestudy workshop, consisting of a workshop replay and several skill videos, walks you through best practices, based on the best available research and insights from clinical experiences for harnessing the full power of how EMDR therapy can be used in client care. Special insights are relayed for addressing the impact of COVID-19 on the prevalence of addictive disorders globally and adapting treatment strategies to telehealth.

A General Note About Approvals
Please also note that APA-approved sponsors are accepted by many state boards, such as California BBS and major licensure boards within the state of Pennsylvania. In both of these cases, separate paperwork does not need to be filled out. Many state boards also accept out-of-state providers, which is why our Ohio approvals appear on every training. In some states, pre- or post-program approval forms must be sent, and you are responsible for checking into the rules of the licensure board in your state as to what is required. Please let the Institute for Creative Mindfulness know if you need support documentation in any way for these pre or post-program approval applications.
