With a Masters in Education from Vanderbilt, Kambria Evans has been creating trainings and teaching adult learners for over 20 years. As the Director of Education and Quality Improvement at Stanford Medical School, she created ease in complex systems, thereby giving medical trainees successful learning experiences. Now, as a dedicated mom, therapist, and EMDR Consultant, Kambria knows what it means to do things efficiently, effectively, and in a learner-centered way. When she isn't podcasting or creating online courses, you can find Kambria playing with her twins on a beach in California.
In our field, we hear and use the word attachment so often. And, in the community of trauma-informed clinicians, I'd always felt like we had a deep understanding of what this word means.
But when I sat down with Dr. Mara Tesler-Stein for the second time on The Zero Disturbance Podcast, we got to unpack the lack of understanding that lies within this concept for our clients... and possibly even for the folks in our clinical communities.
A lot of research in the perinatal field suggests that we jump to a "disturbed attachment" diagnosis with our NICU babies. However, Mara helps redirect us to what she sees as the real key to fostering secure attachment for parents and children.
And the answer is not so reliant on the NICU experience that the research suggests. In fact, it's actually quite simple.
If parents of NICU babies are able to respond with attunement, responsiveness, and sensitivity, then secure attachment will find its way. And yes, that means that parents need to put in their own work, spending time reflecting on their own attachment behaviors and styles, but when that work is navigated, they're able to give their babies the secure attachment they so lovingly want to offer.
And that's the magic in the trauma-informed therapy we offer our adult clients.
This interview was a powerful reminder of how the narratives we create about parents or kids are sometimes an interpretation (or misinterpretation) of behaviors and urges. As we explored attachment and parenting throughout the lifespan, even touching on complex diagnoses such as neurodivergence, the vulnerable child, and RAD, Mara brought me "back to home base" in the NICU.
Join us as we learn how to trust and listen to parents, help them create healthy narratives, and teach them what secure attachment actually looks like!
You won't want to miss the clinical gold nuggets sprinkled throughout a beautiful conversation about the capacity to bond, attach, attune, and heal.

Supporting families, even under the best circumstances, can be challenging. So what happens when we need to support families when the world is not set up for their kids to succeed... or even survive?
I had the opportunity to sit down with author Wendy Jones to discuss what it means to show up not only as a therapist for our young, trans clients but also what it means to show up for their parents.
Not unlike any other new or different experience, folks benefit from getting support from those who have a similar thing happening in their life. And that's exactly what Wendy has set out to do with her new book, Transformed.
In our conversation, we dive into our shared experience as moms to trans kids. We share stories about what our kids said and did that helped guide us in understanding their truth. For us, it looked similar; for other parents to gender non-conforming kids, it can look different. But one thing remains true; the value in following our kids' lead, in each singular moment, as they show up in front of us.
And, for a therapist, or any other adult in a trans kid's life, it's the same strategy.
Did you know that 41% of gender non-conforming individuals will attempt to take their own lives? That's 10 times higher than their cis-counterparts. And, trust me, I know that's a harrowing statistic, but there is good news.
Wendy helps us understand the power we hold as therapists and how gender affirming adults are a key piece in the preservation of young, trans lives. Studies show that with at least one supportive adult, suicide rates decrease.
How powerful is that?
With research like this growing rapidly, it's clear that it's time for clinicians to get trained in how to offer gender-affirming care for trans and gender non-conforming clients.
Y'all, Wendy and I get vulnerable in our conversation. We talk about how we tried, and sometimes failed, at finding resources, how we grieved the loss of the futures we had visualized for our kids, and how we navigated losing friends and family members who just couldn't get on board.
I'm feeling empowered to share this with you and my hope is that you'll listen, learn and grow with us.
Gender non-conforming kids are a gift to the world and if as therapists, parents, and adults we can begin to educate ourselves on how to affirm their identities, we're one step closer to understanding the beauty that lies within their lived experience.
Listen to our podcast episode today because, if you haven't already seen a trans client, it's going to happen sooner than you realize. And being prepared is going to be the difference in saving someone's life.

As a gender therapist and mom to a transgender child, Wendy felt there was a strong need in the world to support parents of trans kids.
She knew that her own journey was challenging at first, and finding support wasn't always an easy thing. As she had been working with transgender people and their parents over the past five years, Wendy came to find that the parents were oftentimes scared and felt alone in the process of accepting their child's gender identity.
Due to the time constraints of therapy, she wanted to find a way to reach more parents with her own hard-earned strength and wisdom. Writing seemed to be just the right medium to accomplish this goal. Books were one of the main ways that her family got the necessary knowledge to start their gender journey eight years ago. However, there weren't many books out there that offered both lived/personal and clinical experiences.
Wendy hopes that her book can reach parents around the world that are in need of education, support, and encouragement. Her overreaching goal is to help trans kids by helping their parents and to be a strong positive force in today's gender revolution.

Anyone else feeling irritated by how clinicians love to tell each other what is right or wrong? Ever notice how scripts often don’t thoroughly address client preferences or the process of client engagement? Where is the role of autonomy for the client?
To remedy our irritation, today we zoom out and get curious about how we make clinical choices, and how we engage with our clients about making those clinical choices.
For EMDR clinicians, this can be tricky. Questions may already be coming up for you like: How do we make a shared decision with our clients when we have a protocol, step-by-step process, and/or script that we are to follow to do it right and be effective?
Herein lies the balancing act between positive health outcomes and patient autonomy. How and when do we make clinical choices with our clients? How do we follow the script or protocol, and stay client-centered? What’s important to the client? How do we triage what is clinically relevant? The questions are important, and the answers feel challenging.
Good news: physicians have been researching this for decades. And it’s time for us to catch up with the rest of the healthcare literature. Today, as we talk about shared decision making, we realize that we cannot say we are trauma-informed if we are not client-centered. I said what I said.
You deserve to have richer conversations with your clients, in consultation, and even in Facebook groups. As we dive into models of shared decision making, get clarity on which shared decision making model you’re using when you make clinical choices. By identifying your orientation along the shared decision making spectrum, you'll get to have more productive conversations with your colleagues and clients.
And you can finally understand how to make EMDR a client-centered therapy. Perhaps you were also clinically trained in a paternalistic model of shared decision making. I was, and boy did it mess me up. The paternalistic model tells us the rules about EMDR, like talking during Phase 4, what target to start from, and what form of BLS to use.
Let’s get curious about how to translate the gold of EMDR into the deliberative model of shared decision making so we can serve more clients effectively. What does EMDR in the deliberative model look like? Listen in to find out!

I had the opportunity to sit down with not one but two folks in the trauma-informed therapy and coaching communities. And not only was our conversation aligned around our similar value systems, it was yet another example of how innovative thinking offers clinicians the chance to go beyond the traditional images of what we see as therapy.
George Tabb and Noshima Darden-Tabb are a dynamic, married duo who run their own EMDR and Brainspotting private practice and coaching business. They help us understand what it means to work in your zone of genius when it comes to partnership in business, how to identify and use different clinical modalities, and what it takes to be a transformational clinician and trainer.
I was amazed to learn about what these folks have offered their communities and how their business is thriving because of it.
Take some time to listen to George and Noshima as they share anecdotes about their partnership in life, in their business, and their role in their community.

Whether we like it or not, the past two years have challenged us to design more innovative ways to run our practices and deliver mental health services. Perhaps you've been curious how EMDRIA has had to roll with the punches, too.
I got to sit down with former EMDRIA President, current EMDRIA Board Member, and EMDR Trainer, Carol Miles, to get the inside scoop.
Listen as Carol shares insight about EMDRIA's standardization process for virtual trainings since the start of the pandemic, details about how The Council of Scholars impacts the curriculum used for EMDRIA basic trainings, and EMDRIA's articulation of community values in response to cultural and social climates.
Following in the likeness of Francine Shapiro, EMDRIA strives to be a place where innovation is welcomed, not only in the name of research, but also in the name of serving the populations that need psychotherapy the most.
If we want to keep serving our clients, our community, and ourselves, we need to be building practices that function based on what's happening now, not what was happening then.

I sat down with the one and only Dr. Jamie Marich and had the opportunity to hear from a clinician whose transparency about their own identity is the very thing that makes them a great trainer, therapist, and overall human being.
In our conversation, we talk about how the messaging and training many therapists receive about dissociation creates an unfounded fear and misunderstanding about clients with dissociative minds.
Jamie's ability to take a critical look at the therapy community's fears while sharing her own lived experience as a person with a dissociative mind, is the key in helping us understand that our community is better off with a modified approach to dissociation.
We examine the value of disclosure and advocacy as an effort to decrease the stigma around this identity so that therapists may actually serve their dissociative clients.
It's time that the trauma-informed community understand the identities of the folks who seek out our help in a way that goes beyond protocol. And our hope is that instead of seeing the dissociative mind as something to be feared, we'll all begin to see it as a super power instead.

As therapists, we all want to feel that we are helping others and feel secure in our own lives. Especially during a pandemic.
As highly trained, trauma-informed therapists, our mission is to guide our clients in developing secure attachment and healthy relationships. Alongside them, we also seek to develop a security in our private practice that provides us with healthy choices in our careers.
And how we learn about what gives us security depends on who teaches us what real security means.
For many of us, we’ve learned that being on insurance panels gives us security; insurance companies send us lots of clients and requires very little marketing on our part to reach “full.”
But does full feel good? Do low reimbursement rates from insurance companies allow us to feel the type of security we really crave? Why do we find ourselves in arguments with each other and ourselves about taking insurance? Why do many of us find ourselves in unhealthy relationships with insurance companies?
In today’s podcast, we invite five alumni of The Consultation Program to discuss how they developed their relationship with insurance, what they learned in that relationship, and how that lead them to the successful place they are in now. Not only will we invite you to get curious about your relationship with insurance and the stories you’ve told yourself about that relationship, we also invite you to check in with yourself about how your values align or do not align with an insurance-based practice.
If you are a therapist who takes insurance, or is considering going on or off of insurance, you are not going to want to miss this episode! Our hope is that this conversation will leave you feeling full of permission to do what works best for you.

Our series of innovative thinking continues, and today we are honored to be joined by Thomas Zimmerman, EMDR Consultant & Trainer.
Thomas helps us think about how we resolve traumatic memories, and introduces us to The Four Blinks Version of Flash. What I loved most about talking with Thomas was how he got me thinking about how we translate EMDR and other trauma-informed therapies so they are accessible to clients and clinicians. Healing trauma is a social justice issue, and we are all a part of it.
I'm excited to journey with you this year as we learn about Flash/ Four Blinks, EMDR 2.0, and Brainspotting to expand our abilities beyond EMDR to serve our clients. These other modalities that tax the working memory deepen our understanding of how EMDR works, giving us more clinical reasoning ability.
As we know, there is no perfect product, and what we know will continue to evolve. What an exciting time to be a trauma therapist as we continue to learn more!

Do you have an innovation mindset?
You know who did? Francine Shapiro.
She first created EMD in 1987 after her famous walk in the park, and later created EMDR in 1991 with standard protocol (8 phases) and the AIP model. EMDRIA wasn't established until 1995.
Over the past 30 years, many clinicians have gone on to expand our understanding of healing trauma and EMDR, even bringing in new theories about taxing the working memory (EMDR 2.0).
So isn’t it interesting that in all these years of innovation, some EMDR clinicians believe that EMDR, as they learned it many years ago, is somehow supposed to stay that way forever as “the perfect product.”
Honoring Francine Shapiro doesn’t mean we stop innovating what she created. In fact, this is the opposite of how we honor an innovator. We honor an innovator by participating in the innovation process instead of hindering it.
To understand how we can truly honor the innovators we admire, listen in as my hubs, Keegan Evans, shares his career experience with Scott Cook, founder of Intuit. Keegan invites us to learn from successful tech companies in Silicon Valley to try on innovation mindsets, create learning communities, encourage the natural process of products evolving over time, and not to fall into the trap of thinking there is a “perfect product.”

I've been offering intensive therapy programs for my EMDR clients for 5 years now and I've learned a lot about about how to design successful intensive models. And I've made it my mission to share my experience so that other clinicians may benefit in their own private practices.
And, now, because I've now had the opportunity to support clinicians as they launch their own intensive models, I've been able to learn more about what helps and hinders clinicians when it comes to designing their intensive models. And, as always, I want to share that with you.
Today, I explore the 7 most common myths that I hear in consultation about why clinicians feel stuck when it comes to offering intensive therapy in their private practices. And the good news? I'm here to encourage you (with data of course) on how we can shift our mindset to better understand how possible it is to design an intensive model of therapy.
Learn about why you're already trained and set up to do this, how intensive therapy actually takes less energy, that intensive therapy doesn't mean 6-8 hours of therapy, and much more in today's podcast episode.
You are a precious resource who has the ability to offer high-value services to their clients. And it's my mission to help you understand that.

We know that work as a trauma therapist can often leave clinicians feeling burnt out. And when we live and work through a globally altering experience, like the COVID-19 pandemic, that burnout gets amplified and can push folks to leave the field entirely.
So, can you imagine what life would look like if you had three times the amount of clients in your practice?
Y’all, for life as a child therapist, that’s what reality can look like.
I sat down with my friend and colleague, Nicole Symcox, to talk about what private practice self-care should look like while working as a virtual EMDR therapist with kids.
Listen as Nicole shares her own iron-clad systems that keep her safe so that she may continue to do the same for her clients. We unpack what it’s like to create boundaries with kids and their parents, the secret to protecting your time, and how to design a practice that works within your self-care container.
Your business is a precious resource for the folks in your community, so don’t spend your time overextending yourself for pennies on the dollar.
Let us help you create a business that reflects your worth.
Nicole Symcox is a Licensed Psychotherapist, Mental Health Educator, and Podcast Host for the popular show, Mental Health Remix. In her private practice in California, she provides holistic healing for kids and teens, and is a Certified EMDR clinician and CIT.
Using her framework for treating trauma and anxiety, she's helped thousands of clients gain freedom, peace, and an empowered sense of living. Through her coaching platform, she offers business coaching and EMDR consultation to clinicians who want to build a profitable private practice, while offering clinical excellence utilizing EMDR for kids.

Looking for more business self-care encouragement?
If your private practice is leaving you burnt out and feeling desperate for change, it's probably because you're in need of self-care that's built into your business model. As Nicole and I discuss, we're not taught how to run a business as we come up in our training and it's time for us to break that cycle.
The Consultation Program addresses this gap in our education by offering clinicians practice design support along side clinical consultation. Apply today to embark on an eight month journey in the only comprehensive consultation program out there.

Today, we’re talking money.
And, believe me, I know that this is a hard thing for many therapists to talk about. I’ve had to work through my own stuff with this, coached many consultees, and now, I'm here to offer you some insight on the frameworks that we traditionally use to determine our rates and what we can try to do instead.
Listen as I dive into the notion that the information we’re using to generate our rates is, in most cases, distorted and riddled in generational trauma passed down by therapists before us. The unfortunate truth is that the data we’re using to keep our heads above water is dangerously devaluing the work that we do.
We are highly-trained, trauma-informed, brain-based therapists whose value goes far beyond what insurance and directory companies are telling us. I want all of us to make informed decisions when it comes to our rates because, as we're starting to learn, no one else is going to do it for us.
Understand how to define your therapy rates in a way that reflects the transformations you facilitate. And leave the frameworks of the past behind you.
Looking to learn more about designing your rates? We're on a mission to help clinicians see the value in their transformative services and we want you there!
The Consultation Program offers practice design coaching along side clinical consultation to help clinicians understand that they're highly-trained specialists who deserve rates that reflect their services.

Reference for number of mental health care professionals in the United States
When we hear the word imagination, a variety of things may come to mind. Maybe it’s two kids playing a pretend game or maybe it's a fantasy television show or maybe it’s even a comic book with some creative characters.
What we don’t typically think about is EMDR therapy. In fact, when we think about imagination and EMDR, our training might even tell us that what we’re looking at is dissociation.
That's why today, I want to open up a conversation about the relationship that we, as clinicians, have with imagination.
We know that, for children, imagination holds the key to so much of what we know to be human development. Imagination is what kids use to play, and to learn, and to try on different identities and cognitions. It’s a powerful tool that so many children use to process their day to day life.
So, y’all, when our adult clients are reprocessing childhood trauma and a cartoon character or some other imaginative figure comes in, I want you to pause before you write this off as dissociation. Take a moment to recognize that you may actually be exactly where you need to be: in their childhood neural networks and narratives. Then take a moment to recognize that your client may be doing exactly what they need to be doing in Phase 4: connecting those childhood narratives to the present, adult narratives.
We put so much pressure on ourselves to identify when our clients are dissociating in Phase 4 that we’re quick to react with the assumption that we need to bring them back to target or back to the present. But what if, instead, we were to take some time to let imagination do the job it was meant to do?
I imagine we’d be offering a resource to our clients that we didn’t even know they had.
Listen to this podcast episode to learn more about imagination and EMDR therapy.

Y’all know that I believe EMDR is magic. And I think, among the many reasons, the magic of EMDR lies within its structure.
It can feel safe to hear and repeat the message of “stick to the script and trust the process.” And while the message has a positive intention, it's just not good enough.
In fact, it's basic. And EMDR is too sophisticated to be basic.
At first we see the benefit of this message with our peers in basic training exercises and single-incident trauma clients in our practices; it feels reassuring and so we internalize it.
But then something troublesome can happen.
When a complex trauma client walks through our door and the line-by-line script doesn’t offer what that client needs, we get cold feet with EMDR.
And not only do we lose trust in the process, but we lose trust in ourselves.
Sticking to the script and trusting the process should no longer be the default message in basic EMDR training or Facebook comments for those seeking consultation. We deserve more nuance than that because we are far beyond basic.
So, I’d like to offer something different. What if this idea just meant that we believe in the power of EMDR, the value of the 8 Phases, and that we trust the AIP model? And what if we used this as encouraging blueprint instead of a line-by-line script to be repeated?
If we can alter the way that we value the structure of EMDR, we can alter the relationship that we have with ourselves as EMDR clinicians.
Listen to my most recent podcast to understand how we limit ourselves with this message and what we can do instead.
You deserve to trust yourself because EMDR is magic… and so are you.

We know that every experience has feelings attached to it. And, as therapists, we’re apt to listen to and validate those feelings for our clients and (hopefully) for ourselves.
And learning, just like all of the other experiences in life, has feelings attached to it. And while we would typically create space for the feelings that come up, in Phase 4 we tend to pick and choose what feelings we think are appropriate for this time.
Reprocessing in Phase 4 is just learning, y’all. And for our clients (and for us), there are going to be feelings that show up as this happens.
Our job is not necessarily to interfere with these feelings because we believe that something else should be happening. Our job is to understand if that frustration, or other feeling, is clinically relevant.
And spoiler alert, oftentimes, it is.
I’ve identified the 5 questions that I ask myself whenever I’m feeling “stuck” in Phase 4 and my hope is that this framework will help you understand that sometimes “stuckness” is the clinical stepping stone you need to understand for your client.

If your experience as a newly trained EMDR therapist was anything like mine, you probably started to see that “sticking to the script” to navigate through standard protocol was confusing when working with complex trauma clients. Why? Because the beauty of standard protocol often needs interweaves, parts work, and more Phase 2 preparation (things not in "the script") in order to flow. And while some basic trainings teach us these things, many of us don't get to learn these more advanced topics in the beginning of our EMDR training.
And far too often, the lack of understanding to work with these complex clients creates a fear in us. We worry that we can’t do EMDR because we don’t know what to do when reading the line-by-line script isn't working.
I want to offer a framework for you to think about case conceptualization in a way that lowers the stakes when it comes to choosing a target with your complex trauma clients.
What if I told you that you don’t have to dive into the first, worst, or touchstone memory right away with your new EMDR clients? What if I told you that, instead, you can pick an initial target where the stakes are lower because the SUD is lower?
And what if I told you that this “pilot” would breathe life into your relationship with your client and your client's relationship with EMDR?
Listen to my most recent podcast where I unpack case conceptualization with all types of clients so we can decrease our anxiety.
It's time to give yourself permission to gather information so that you may make informed choices.

If you think about what traditional images of psychotherapy look like, you might imagine something hierarchical, impersonal, and precise. Where the clinician is as good as invisible and the sessions sound scripted.
But what we know now is that effective therapy happens when stuff gets relational and creative integrations are designed. Because the clinicians who offer something inspiring to the world are the ones who show up with intention, authenticity, and an openness to experiment.
I sat down with EMDR clinicians Andrea Skitch and Norine Vander Hooven to talk about what it means to blend powerful tools like Kundalini Yoga and Brainspotting with EMDR therapy.
I’m inspired at how these women have stacked their talents and blended them with EMDR therapy. Because I can feel that not only do they offer something beautiful for their clients, but that they also do for consultees and for themselves.
Listen to this Spotlight episode as we unpack what it means to experiment clinically and with our business models, and you’ll find that all of it is connected.

With a Masters in Education from Vanderbilt, Kambria has been creating trainings and teaching adult learners for 20 years. As Director of Education and Quality Improvement at Stanford Medical School, her job was to decomplicate and consolidate complex systems and topics, thereby giving medical trainees successful learning experiences. Now, as a busy mom of fraternal twins, dedicated business owner of Zero Disturbance, and EMDRIA Approved Consultant, Kambria knows what it means to do things efficiently, effectively, and in a learner-centered way.
Every clinician, whether they think they work with reproductive issues or not, needs to hear this discussion! Why? First, even if your clinical work doesn’t focus on these topics, you’re still likely to find them showing up in your office. Next, how we think about incorporating EMDR therapy during the reproductive period, especially during a client’s pregnancy, can be applied conceptually to every client! By exploring the hopes, fears, and hesitations that arise when incorporating EMDR during the reproductive period, we illuminate what comes up across clinical practice areas.
There are a lot of alarming messages in the therapy world about EMDR and pregnancy. And for many EMDR clinicians, this messaging has instilled an aversion to doing EMDR with our pregnant clients.
We're taught to fear the "dangers" of doing EMDR in the first and third trimesters, the threat EMDR has on high-risk pregnancies, and that we should, at all costs, avoid any reprocessing in Phase 4 with our pregnant clients.
And while this messaging has a good intention, it loses sight of one of the biggest questions associated with EMDR and pregnancy: what's the risk if we don't do EMDR with our pregnant clients?
I sat down with perinatal mental health advocate and expert Dr. Mara Tesler Stein to learn more about EMDR and pregnancy to unpack the past, present, and future behind this misunderstood question.
Listen as we talk about the fears we have as clinicians, our responsibilities to our clients, and the research that actually answers the often asked question "Can you do EMDR with a pregnant client?"
Want to keep learning with us?

Who do you think you are? You’re too big for your britches. Wait your turn; you’re too young. You may have grown up hearing similar messages that were meant to help you, but a lot of those messages are just the result of generational trauma. Instead, these messages did more harm than good.
Even as adults, people often want to put their fears onto us, and give us a plan that works for them but not for us. We can no longer hold on to beliefs that do not serve us. We cannot be effective therapists or teachers having listened to these voices and choosing to continue to listen to these voices.
As adults, we have choices. We can make intentional decisions about the voices that we let into our heads and into our hearts. Of course, sometimes we listen to the wrong people, but it’s important that we take responsibility and make a choice on who we are going to listen to and who we aren’t.
If you have any desire for other people to listen to you, you have to be very intentional about who you are listening to and who is guiding you. Surround yourself with people who believe in you and who allow you to let your unique light shine.

I was recently speaking with a consultee about her experience with veterans and I asked if she would be willing to share her unique perspective. Her response was, “what am I going to say that hasn’t already been said?”
This got me thinking. Why don’t people create content? It’s not because they don’t have ideas or because they’re not smart. I realized it’s not just about the content, but it’s about how it is delivered.
Each of us is a combination of all of the people and voices that we have taken in. This creates a unique perspective within us that no one else has. Each of us has different content to share based on our own unique perspectives, and each of us will deliver that content in a unique way.
Similarly, content is received in very different ways by different people. Even if what you are sharing has already been said, no one can say it in exactly the unique way that you can, which means that it has never been received in the same way either.

When I came up as a therapist, I was taught to offer sliding scale or pro bono spots as a way to be generous. Maybe you were taught this, too.
And while that's not wrong, there is so much more we can do in addition to or instead of giving away discounted time in 1:1 services. Our ability to make a difference can be expansive if we are intentional and think outside the box.
I sat down with Andreana Mabry, an EMDR CIT, to talk about the emotional journey of working in community mental health to transitioning into private practice; her journey is something that can speak to all of us.
As therapists, we're called to serve. And in the transition to private practice, it can feel like we're leaving people behind. But I want you to know that when we're freed from the restrictions of agency work and insurance boundaries, we actually create space to serve our clients, our community and ourselves.
Listen as Andreana explores her path to intentional generosity as a private practice business owner to get a sense of the kind of options you have to be intentionally generous.

Like many therapists, I thought that therapy was the answer for everything. Have a mindset block? Go to therapy. Have childhood trauma? Do EMDR.
It wasn't until I joined my first business coaching group that I saw what was missing for me. In today's episode, we discuss why we aren't meant to experiment, innovate, and disrupt the status quo alone.

Whether you're a therapist, a supervisor, or a consultant, you are a teacher in every space. We cannot separate teaching from anything you do in the healing space.
In today's episode, we get curious about the three kinds of teachers: the content dump truck; the teacher who knows it and has done it well; and the teacher who knows it, has done it, and can share it relationally, emotionally, and transformatively.
As we review the pros and cons of each, we land in an agreement with ourselves about what kind of teacher we will commit to being.

You're not alone. You're not crazy. Right now sucks.
And we're not ok. Self-care as we knew it isn't enough. Dread arises when we see our client schedules, and its disorienting. I am with you in this, and feeling it, too.
In today's episode, we get real about what therapists are saying in consultation groups, now two years into the pandemic, and how our community needs to read the room.

Intensives are ideal therapeutic spaces for integrating various modalities! Today's episode shows us how. In this Zero Disturbance Spotlight Podcast, we explore how to think like a Zero Disturbance business owner/ clinician with Tracy Lynch, who incorporates her training with Gottman, parts work, and EMDR to create intensive retreats for couples.
I get to support so many cool therapists who are diversifying their businesses with intensives; it's time that you got in on the conversation. My hope is that you will hear the experiences of others to inspire you, build you up, and give you confidence to do exactly what works for you.

As I guide my consultees in their own business development in The Consultation Program, they ask me some tough questions. In my most vulnerable podcast to date, I share my response to my consultee's recent question: When you started Zero Disturbance, did you know what it was going to be?
In addition to pulling back the curtain and being transparent about my own business journey the past 18 months, I share three variables to always consider as you navigate your own business evolution.

Y’all, I am so thankful for the Zero Disturbance community! It’s been almost two years since I began this journey and I truly have you to thank. Since the start of Zero Disturbance, we’ve created digital kits and workbooks, The Consultation Program, and, as of a few short weeks ago, Zero Disturbance: The Podcast. I can’t believe that this has grown to what it’s become today. This Thanksgiving, I won’t only be celebrating gratitude, but I’ll also be celebrating you. And as I dream about what is to come for Zero Disturbance in 2022, I hope you are holding space for your dreams this holiday season. You are worthy of living a life as a therapist that lights you up, has purpose, and gives you a powerful voice in the world. And it’s time that we create space for everyone instead of reserving space for few.

The 8-hour, multi-day intensive model does not work for most clients, and it absolutely does not work for most clinicians.
But don't worry. If you're curious about offering intensives in your practice, you have choices. In today's video, we explore how rigid clinical models are becoming outdated, especially during a pandemic, and what is most crucial now is to learn how to customize and design your clinical offerings so that the client and clinician are considered.

From where I sit, I get to meet so many cool EMDR therapists who are diversifying their businesses with EMDR intensives. It's time that all of you got in on the conversation. My hope is that you will hear the experiences of others to inspire you, build you up, and give you confidence to do exactly what works for you. In this Zero Disturbance Spotlight Podcast, we explore how to think like a Zero Disturbance business owner/ clinician with EMDR CIT Bonnie Barclay. Bonnie serves clients in Knoxville, Tennessee at Creekside Counseling and Wellness. Bonnie encourages us with her story about coming off of insurance and reimagining her practice model with EMDR intensives.

Y'all, I did a thing: took my twins on vacation in Pacifica, stayed at a new house we've never stayed in, and I did it ALL BY MYSELF. Talk about a parenting milestone!
In addition to creating new neural pathways on our inaugural mommy vacation, I noticed old neural pathways. My brain was linking up associations with a relationship I had in Pacifica nearly 15 years ago, and it was giving it to me in pieces, just like someone throwing memory fragments of confetti.
These confetti moments gave me a palpable reminder of how our brain is always trying to give us what we need by rapidly linking up associations and bringing them to the front burner. And for that, I have a deep respect and appreciation for the brain.
By noticing myself noticing my process, it got me thinking about how doing EMDR as a client has literally changed my brain. And perhaps completing EMDR targets is not just about decreasing the target disturbance, but, more importantly, it's about changing the way the brain processes information forever. Is there anything more incredible than that?

As EMDR therapists, we know that we never want to overwhelm our clients with feeling too much or too fast when it comes to trauma. Less is often more when creating safety. We know this because we are taught to spend time in Phase 2 with resourcing and preparation before going into trauma networks. And when we do go into Phase 4, we know to keep clients in their window of tolerance. And, if they leave that WOT space, we bring them back so they can process the trauma effectively.
As people living through an almost 2-year pandemic, we know that we have been and remain firehosed by trauma. And we are often not in our window of tolerance. And taking breaks from trauma (and the painful feelings that go with it) is responsible and wise as we live to survive.
In today's episode, we discuss why right now is not the time to encourage people to feel all their feelings, and why we should be encouraging breaks from feeling painful feelings during COVID.

If you are an EMDR therapist, you understand attachment. Your clients have C-PTSD and/or relational trauma. You already get it: attachment is king. So, what does it mean when we think about intentional attachment and detachment as an EMDR therapist? How about as an EMDR intensive therapist? Today's video explores intentional attachment in transition: from wake to sleep, from work to home, from therapist to therapist. If you have clients who are struggling (aka healthcare workers), you will not want to miss this episode.

Anyone else's brain feeling mushy? Thought so. With all the changes and newness, it's the perfect time to keep it simple where we can. Well, good news. (Most of) our clients do not need a detailed explanation of Phases 1-8 or neuroscience speak when they ask how EMDR works or what to expect. In today's video, we discuss three metaphors to help you, your consultees, and your clients understand the clinical reasoning and treatment choices we make together.

When we talk about wealth, success and boundaries in our field, it can feel like a controversial topic. And that's because, for therapists, tons of negative cognitions have been assigned to our financial accomplishments.
If we don’t accept insurance or our rates are “too high,” we’re demanding. If our generosity isn’t deemed substantial enough, we’re unfriendly. And if we attempt to create offers that financially benefit us, we’re greedy.
But y’all... if we had a client come into a session with these negative cognitions, we’d buzz that right out of the room. So why don’t we allow ourselves that same shift in our mindsets?
Maybe it’s the exhaustive language of rate shaming or the illusion that we should always be available to help everyone or possibly, it’s the fallacy that our one and only goal should be for our practice to be “full.” Perhaps it’s all of these things and more. Whatever the cause, the problematic culture that shapes what is deemed “appropriate” in terms of our success is.... well, it’s bullshit.
I want for other EMDR clinicians what I have discovered for myself: protecting my time, being intentionally generous, and creating high-value offers doesn’t mean that I’ve traded off what it means to be a good therapist. I’m done letting anyone else determine what success in my practice looks like. And you should be, too.
If you’re ready to shift your mindset and turn your practice into something that serves you financially, it’s time to apply for your spot in The Consultation Program. The Consultation Program is a place where EMDR clinicians are encouraged to create high-value services that benefit clients and clinicians alike. It’s a place where you’re emboldened to raise rates, to take fewer clients or to offer intensives to clients when it makes sense for you. And it’s a place where your time is respected, valued and not taken for granted. You deserve to live in your worth and feel good about it. Apply for your spot in The Consultation Program today and change your practice forever.

I opened up my laptop the other day and ended up in one of the many private practice Facebook groups. I stumbled across a post I’d seen 1,000 versions of before. And it went something like this... “I’m an exhausted parent and I don’t know how to fit my client schedule into my personal life. I’m so tired and so burnt out and I don’t know what to do.” I scrolled through the comments to see what our community had to offer and I won’t lie to y'all... I was infuriated.
Comment after comment I read: “I’m so sorry!” “It’s so hard, but hang in there. It’ll get better!” “Such a bummer. I feel you!” I read over and over and over as folks in our community offered up empathy and nothing else.
Y’all we have normalized burnout and exhaustion to a point where clinicians in our own community don’t even believe they’re in control. We’ve accepted a communal collapse of morale to a point where we’ve encouraged each other to lean on a crutch of learned helplessness.
Our empathy has bled into a laundry list of excuses as to why it’s “normal” to feel the way we do. If, as EMDR clinicians, we understand the importance of support therapy and change therapy, why aren’t we living that value within our own community??
It’s time that we come forward against the acceptance of burnout in our community by taking back the agency we so desperately need. When my twins were two years old, my client schedule wasn’t working for me and I’ll be honest, my life was miserable. And listen, I get that there are some things in life that you just have to get through like teething or cold and flu season.
But y'all, running your own private practice is not one of those things. I changed my practice to something that made sense for me and I won’t lie to you... it was hard. And I had to ask myself questions about what I wanted from my career that I was afraid to answer and I had to set goals that I was afraid I wouldn’t reach. But guess what? I did it anyway. And I learned that in our practices (and in our lives), there isn’t failure.
There is simply forward movement with data collection, interpretation and experimentation. It’s a lather, rinse, repeat kind of formula until your practice gets to a place where you get what you need, when you need it and how you need it.
As therapists, we know that things don’t get better when they get ignored. So, let’s move beyond just offering support for each other because there’s a moment when empathy isn’t enough. And that moment is now. I want to help folks in our community get their agency back. So, if you’re ready to learn how to experiment and innovate in your private practice, come work with me this fall in The Consultation Program.
The Consultation Program is a place where EMDR clinicians are encouraged and guided on how to create business models that work for them. It’s a place where clinicians get support and the tools and resources to implement real change into their practices. Apply for your spot in The Consultation Program today and change your practice forever.

One of the biggest mistakes I see with EMDR clinicians in private practice is forgetting that they are the CEO of their lives and businesses. In this week's video, we talk about how to remember who is (and who is NOT) the boss, and go over some common examples of when this gets really confusing (e.g. rate shaming).

We've all had moments with clients or in consultation when we decide that some protocol isn't working for us, and it frustrates us and closes us down. This is common in Phase 2 when we can't resource clients with certain exercises (e.g. safe place, container). In today's video, we look at what positive and negative cognitions show up in our own learning process, and how to remember that, no matter what, one thing is always working for us.

When we understand the purpose of clinical interventions, instead of just following a script from someone else, we get confidence, joy, and power. This is why developing our clinical reasoning skills is everything. Today I share not only my four favorite interweaves, but we also examine what these interweaves are designed to do during Phase 4. I invite you to both appreciate the magic of EMDR, and pull back the curtain.

What does it mean when there is "too much" talking in Phase 4? Today we dive into this common question by exploring the guidelines for the client, role of the therapist, and what is really happening. One anchor will keep us sane: every behavior has a positive intention. This topic is a fascinating one! And, as always with Zero Disturbance, we get to learn while feeling good (because this is how we learn best). To learn more about EMDR while feeling good, check out www.zerodisturbance.com

It depends on the client, but it also depends on who you are and where you are. To learn more about client-centered and clinician-centered EMDR, visit www.zerodisturbance.com/the-map

We've all had clients and/or consultees ask this question: "how long does EMDR take?" Why is this so hard to answer? I've heard responses ranging from 2-3 sessions for one target, to 8-12 for single-incident trauma, to "it depends." Ya'll, we can do better than this! We are the brain surgeons of therapists! Imagine going in for brain surgery and asking how long the procedure and/or recovery will be, and the surgeon's answer was "it depends." Unacceptable, right? In today's episode, we answer this question with clarity and thoughtfulness.

How do we know what EMDR target to choose? In today's video, I discuss a common question we hear in EMDR consultation. In response I often ask: given what we know now about this client, what's the wrong choice? And guess what? Often times there is no wrong choice. As an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant and educator, I invite you to ask these questions with joy instead of anxiety.
