EMDR is a powerhouse treatment for trauma, but when working with autistic and ADHD clients, sticking to the standard protocol without adaptations isn't enough. This training is your deep dive into making EMDR actually work for the different neurotypes in your caseload - and into understanding why you need to do it in the first place. This training was first offered in 2022 by Christine MacInnis, a lived-experience autistic and ADHD clinician with a PDA profile, when the neurodiversity-affirming movement was still in its infancy. Since then, the field has expanded with more trainings and offerings focused on EMDR with autistic and ADHD clients - but few provide hands-on, practical, guided tools and interventions that you can use right away. We'll journey through all eight phases of EMDR with a neurodivergent-affirming lens, learning the "why" behind the necessary adaptations and then applying practical, ready-to-use tools. We'll also explore something often overlooked: the cultural trauma that comes simply from existing in a world not built for your neurotype. No boring lectures here. Expect real-life videos, compelling case presentations, group exercises, and live demonstrations that bring these strategies to life. Questions are welcomed throughout the training. Walk away with a fully loaded neurodivergent-affirming EMDR toolkit and the confidence to meet your autistic and ADHD clients' unique needs.

Pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood are powerful seasons of change that can reactivate long-standing wounds related to food, body image, control, and safety. Clients may present with renewed disordered eating patterns, heightened body distress, or internal conflict between wanting to "do better" for their children and feeling overwhelmed by coping strategies that resurface during this vulnerable time. This workshop introduces an IFS-informed EMDR approach to treating food and body struggles within the perinatal and parenting context. Participants will explore how disordered eating and body distress can be understood as protective adaptations shaped by trauma, identity shifts, and cultural pressure, rather than pathology or resistance. Clinicians will learn how to integrate Internal Family Systems (IFS) principles within the standard EMDR therapy model to support case conceptualization, preparation, target selection, and reprocessing. The training addresses key clinical considerations specific to perinatal populations, including nervous system vulnerability, medical trauma, loss of autonomy, and the impact of feeding and body-related experiences. Emphasis is placed on ethical practice, including pacing, informed consent, and adapting EMDR protocols to meet the needs of perinatal clients while maintaining safety and stability. This workshop is designed for clinicians working in perinatal mental health, eating disorders, or trauma who want to move beyond symptom management and support lasting, embodied healing for parents and their families.
