Please review the EMDR International Association's requirements to ensure you are eligible to participate in our Foundational EMDR Therapy Training. There is no difference in the curriculum for our perinatal-focused training from other EMDRIA-approved general Foundational EMDR Therapy Training, you will simply be training with other perinatal-focused mental health practitioners and will be provided with perinatal-specific examples.

We are so excited to be able to offer you a database of therapists who have completed trainings with our team at the Touchstone Institute! Please explore the directory and reach out directly to any clinician that is of interest to you.

We have elected to offer sliding scale options for each of our trainings rather than asking people to go through a scholarship application process.

Learn more about our pricing options and find the tier that best suits your needs by exploring our Pricing page. **Please note: scholarships are available for our Foundational EMDR Therapy Training as our pricing for that course is determined by the Institute for Creative Mindfulness.
