Who This Training Is For

For Licensed Clinicians Trained in EMDR

This program is intended for doctorate- and master-level psychologists, LMFTs, LMHCs, LPCs, LISWs, LMSWs and other master-level mental health practitioners who have completed EMDR Basic Training.

Eligibility for EMDRIA credits is limited to participants who have completed an EMDRIA-approved Basic EMDR Training. If you have not yet completed Basic Training, start with EMDR Basic Training.

Course Overview

AIP, Family Systems, Developmental and Attachment Theory Integrations

This specialty training offers an in-depth exploration of how early attachment wounds, intergenerational trauma, and maladaptive family dynamics shape emotional regulation, core belief systems, and relational patterns across the lifespan. Grounded in the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model, the training integrates developmental and systems theories to help clinicians understand the enduring impact of trauma across childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Through the lens of EMDR’s eight-phase model, participants will learn to identify and reprocess negative cognitions that emerge from early experiences of neglect, enmeshment, abandonment, and emotional dysregulation.

Combining lecture and case-based discussion, this training equips clinicians with actionable tools to enhance treatment outcomes for clients with complex developmental trauma. Participants will learn to assess how trauma presents differently across developmental stages, apply affect tolerance techniques to stabilize clients prior to reprocessing, and integrate EMDR strategies within a family systems framework. Special attention will be given to the influence of intergenerational trauma and attachment dynamics on healing. Clinicians will leave with a deeper understanding of how to support clients in shifting maladaptive relational templates and building healthier emotional foundations.

What You Will Learn

By the End of This Training, You Will Be Able To:

  1. Discuss how the Adaptive Information Processing Theory integrates into Developmental & Systems Theory
  2. Discuss how trauma affected development presents in therapy differently for children & adults
  3. Integrate family systems perspectives with EMDR interventions to enhance therapeutic outcomes
