Comments from Evaluations of Past Workshops:
“This was a standout training in every way. The concepts were well explained and I feel comfortable immediately implementing the interventions involved. I feel like I have both a practical and conceptual understanding of the treatment Substance Use Disorders with EMDR. I also feel like the training has strengthened my understanding of EMDR treatment in general, and not just in the area of substance use. Hope is a phenomenal trainer. She is engaging, funny, well organized and concise, while also being able to engage deeply with the material and with questions” Atlanta Training 2022

This program was excellent. The content was clearly presented and new information was reinforced with examples , practice and review. Each aspect of the work built upon the understanding of the former concept presented. The availability and quality of the handouts and outline was a plus! I feel empowered to practice in a new way and to explore more learning about the treatment of addictions. Hope Payson is a wonderful presenter!
