About Us
Founded in 2015 by Bonnie Mikelson, LISW, and Amy Terrell, LMHC, EMDR & Beyond is dedicated to addressing the needs of survivors of adverse experiences and supporting the professionals who aid their recovery. Our Training Centre offers specialized EMDR and trauma training and education, delivered by expert EMDR trainers, authors, consultants, and clinicians. Our educational programs equip therapists to effectively treat a broad spectrum of mental health issues arising from challenging life experiences.
Our commitment is rooted in teaching the core principles of EMDR as established by Dr. Francine Shapiro, ensuring fidelity to her evidence-based model. Our training events cover the 8 phases of the AIP framework, We also integrate EMDR into various therapeutic models and applications, broadening its scope and utility in clinical practice.
In July 2024, Kenya Rocha, MS, LMHC, NCC assumed ownership and directorship of EMDR & Beyond. Kenya is passionate about continuing the mission of enhancing clinical skill development through comprehensive education. She believes in the importance of continuous learning, with an understanding that skill development evolves over time and varies according to the ongoing educational needs of clinicians.
Under Kenya’s leadership, EMDR & Beyond will continue to provide valuable educational opportunities for all clinicians, from seasoned practitioners to those new to the field. Our Training Centre aims to increase the availability of training for both EMDR and non-EMDR clinicians, ensuring a wide array of professional development options.
Welcome to the heart of EMDR training and education—where our dedication to excellence and commitment to the legacy of Dr. Shapiro’s work guide our path forward.
