EMDR therapy shouldn’t feel like you’re about to take a math test (🤢)

EMDR Therapy can feel incredibly surgical (because it kinda is) and intimidating. We really don’t want to mess it up because we know the stakes can be quite high - we don’t want to cause harm and we want to support our clients become their authentic selves. The pressure we put on ourselves to perform EMDR therapy perfectly is huge (although you really don’t need to do that but you know, that’s your own NCs talking).

The primary purpose of clinical consultation is to seek advice, guidance, or feedback on specific cases, clinical techniques, or other professional issues. To present a case and ask questions requires courage : you’re tapping into your own vulnerability in order to grow as a clinician and learn. And I respect that SO much. That’s why my approach is gentle : there are no stupid questions (truly) and I will not shut you down. I will kindly teach and warmly challenge so you push your critical thinking and creativity.

EMDR consultation without any shaming

We’re focused on problem-solving and enhancing clinical skills and knowledge.

➡️ EMDR consultation gives you the opportunity to :

✅ deepen your understanding of EMDR, its 8 phases, resourcing techniques and cognitive interweaves

✅ get comfortable using EMDR therapy (the part where it SHOULDN’T feel like taking a math test)

✅ receive support navigating complex cases

✅ conceptualize your cases using a trauma-informed lens

EMDR consultation with me means …

Let me introduce myself 😊

I’m Danik Bernier, Registered Social Worker and Psychotherapist, EMDR therapist since 2022 (time FLIES) and since then, I’ve dedicated my private practice to EMDR therapy with a focus on childhood trauma and perinatal trauma.

“EMDR absolutely transformed my trauma practice, but I quickly realized the model is only as effective as my ability to master it. Every time I felt stuck or overwhelmed, Danik had the clarity and expertise to guide me, knowing exactly what my next move should be. Danik is the first person I turn to. As a result, my business and clinical skills wouldn’t be what they are today without her support and mentorship”
