EMDR 1-Day Refresher

A revision day for clinicians returning after a break

Refresh and return to EMDR with confidence. A one-day masterclass with Professor Paul Miller, designed for EMDR-trained therapists who want to reconnect with the fundamentals and deepen clinical confidence.

Launching September 2025

Cost: £150

(Early Bird: £125 for those on waitlist)

This one-day EMDR Refresher, led by Professor Paul William Miller MD is designed specifically for clinicians who have completed EMDR Europe-accredited Standard Training but have not yet begun to implement the therapy in clinical practice.

Life transitions such as maternity leave, job changes, or lack of supervisory and managerial support often delay the integration of EMDR into routine care.

This training provides a structured, supportive space to re-engage with the core elements of EMDR therapy—particularly through the lens of the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model—to rebuild clinical confidence and readiness.

With a focus on practical case identification, readiness assessment, and phased treatment planning, the day offers a concise but comprehensive reorientation to the essentials.

Professor Miller brings both deep clinical expertise and a reflective, compassionate teaching style, creating a space that is welcoming, clarifying, and immediately applicable.

Whether you are returning after a break or seeking renewed momentum, this refresher is a gateway to getting started with EMDR therapy, ethically and effectively.

    • Clinicians returning from extended leave (e.g. maternity, illness, sabbatical) who feel unsure about where to restart.

    • Practitioners who trained some time ago and want to rebuild clarity, confidence, and competence.

    • Professionals who have struggled to integrate EMDR into their service due to time, system pressures, or lack of supervision.

    • Anyone feeling hesitant, blocked, or disconnected from the EMDR approach and ready now for a fresh start.

    Whether you’re NHS-based, in private practice, or somewhere in between, this training offers a compassionate and clinically grounded pathway to begin using EMDR with real clients, ethically and effectively.

  • This masterclass is designed for clinicians who have already completed accredited EMDR training (Part 1 and Part 2) and are looking to refresh their skills, reconnect with core principles, and deepen their clinical confidence.

    You are eligible to attend if you:

    • Have completed at least the foundational EMDR training (Parts 1 & 2 or equivalent)

    • Are currently using, or intend to return to using, EMDR therapy in your clinical practice

    • Want to build confidence, clarify key concepts, and receive practical guidance from an experienced trainer

    This masterclass is particularly valuable for therapists returning to EMDR after time away, those seeking inspiration or community, or anyone aiming to strengthen their therapeutic presence with trauma-affected clients.
