Important Disclaimers BEFORE purchasing
* Please be advised: you must have documentation of completion from your EMDRIA-approved EMDR Basic Training course before you can start this EMDR Certification Program.
** The monthly charge INCLUDES the cost of the scheduled monthly consultation groups and the on demand EMDR Refresher Course, but NOT the 10 individual consultation hours consultation hours.
*** When registering for the cohort, you will be charged an initial NON-REFUNDABLE deposit. Then, once your cohort begins you will be charged the remaining monthly cost for the following nine months.
Cancellation & Transfer Policy
The On Demand Course is nonrefundable.
For the cohort course monthly cost: Because this cohort is so time intensive, we do appreciate when participants can plan and refrain from cancelling or transferring at the last minute or during the cohort. The closer to the cohort beginning, the more difficult it is to fill your spot. Additionally, due to the importance of emotional safety and cohesion of each training cohort, we strongly encourage you to try to stay within the cohort dates you originally attend, when possible, and to protect the dates on your calendar.
Cancellation Policy: The initial deposit is nonrefundable. Once you start your monthly cohort, any monthly payment made is nonrefundable.
Transfer Policy: In this case, all the money paid thus far is non-refundable. If you want to join a new cohort, you will need to start from the beginning and pay the full fee from the beginning of the cohort, even if you don’t need all the hours. We do this for the emotional safety and continuity of the cohort, as we cannot have people leaving and coming in the middle of the cohort process.
If you miss a consultation group: If you miss a consultation group in the middle of your cohort, you will need to make it up in your own time outside of the cohort. You will forfeit your payment that month. When you make up your group, you will need to pay that group consultant directly whatever their group fee is.
