KA-EMDR Consultation

Students who have completed our Introductory Course are invited to participate in consultation with Danielle Ciccone and/or Michele Topel, either in a group format, or individually. During consultation, students will be supported in implementing the Ketamine Assisted EMDR Therapy™ method with their own clients.

In addition to completing the Introductory Course and Experiential Training, at least 3 hours of group consultation, or 2 hours of individual consultation, are required for clinicians who want to be added to the Therapist Directory.

We offer small, supportive KA-EMDR consultation groups. Each group is a 3-session series (90 minutes per session), allowing for continuity, depth, and meaningful integration of the model. Participants are invited to bring clinical cases, ask questions, and refine their use of KA-EMDR through collaborative discussion and guided consultation. Groups are limited to 6 participants to preserve a high level of clinical attention and group cohesion. Consultation groups are offered quarterly by both Danielle Ciccone and Michele Topel. We each offer at least one group per quarter, and often a second group based on demand.

Investment: 

$360 for the full 3-session series. A 10% discount is available for those who have registered for both the Introductory Course and the Experiential Training.

Eligibility:

• Participants must be registered for the Introductory Course before registering for a consultation group.
• The Introductory Course must be completed before the first consultation group meeting.
• Consultation is ideally started after completing the Experiential Training, though this is not required.

Registration:

To request a spot, please email the facilitator of your chosen group from the options below. You will receive payment instructions upon receipt of your email. Full payment is required to reserve your spot. Consultation fees are paid directly to each consultant via Zelle or Venmo. 

Each session is recorded. If you are unable to attend a meeting, you will receive access to the recording. However, attendance at a minimum of two full consultation sessions is required to meet eligibility requirements for inclusion in the KA-EMDR Therapist Directory.
