Welcome to LK Institute, national leader in providing EMDRIA Approved EMDR Treatment Trainings. We offer both Basic and Advanced EMDR Trainings, along with Live EMDR Trainings and On-demand EMDR Trainings. Please note, becoming certified in EMDR Basic Training is required prior to enrolling in any EMDR Advanced Training Courses.

EMDR Trainings

The team of Therapist Trainers at LK Institute are dedicated to advancing the practice of EMDR therapy through excellence in training and support. We believe that when therapists are well-trained, confident, and supported, they can bring lasting healing and transformation to their clients.

Our EMDR trainings—ranging from Basic EMDR Training to Advanced EMDR Training programs—go beyond lectures and theory. Each course combines evidence-based learning with hands-on practice, giving you the opportunity to experience EMDR both as a clinician and as a client-in-training. This balance of knowledge and real-world application helps you develop the skills needed to use EMDR effectively and ethically in your practice.

All of our trainings are EMDRIA-approved, ensuring that you receive education that meets the highest professional standards. Whether you join us online or in person, you’ll benefit from a supportive environment, expert trainers, and practical guidance that empowers you to integrate EMDR into your clinical work with confidence.

The Benefits of EMDR Treatment Training

EMDR Training with LK Institute gives you more than knowledge—we equip you with real world skills and practical tools. We make sure that you have the confidence to start using EMDR Therapy with your clients right away. Here is what you gain in taking any of our EMDR Treatment Trainings:

To enroll in EMDR Training, participants must hold an active license to practice psychotherapy or be currently in a graduate internship or practicum under supervision. Students and interns are welcome to participate with a letter of recommendation from their clinical supervisor confirming approval to use EMDR with clients during the course of training. We encourage prospective participants to review EMDRIA’s full requirements before registering for EMDR Training.

Ultimately, EMDR Training is for therapists who want to expand their skills, deepen their impact, and bring powerful, evidence-based healing tools into their practice. It’s ideal for clinicians ready to take their work—and their clients’ outcomes—to the next level. If you have any questions or would like to chat with us about whether EMDR Training is right for you, contact us and we will be happy to serve.
