The EMDR International Association (EMDRIA) approved Dominique as an EMDR Certified Therapist and an EMDR Consultant for EMDR Psychotherapy. Their non-profit partner, the Humanitarian Assistance Program (HAP), has Accredited her as a Senior Facilitator for EMDR Basic Trainings as well.

Dominique offers consultation towards EMDR Basic Training, EMDRIA Certification, and EMDR Consultancy. Additionally, she provides ad hoc consultation for EMDR therapists that simply wish to discuss a case or improve their skills. 

The emphasis during every consultation is on conceptualizing each case from the foundation of the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) Model and the EMDR standard protocol, and utilizing specialized protocols as they become necessary. Dominique strives to create a comfortable atmosphere where questions and mistakes are both expected and welcomed. She works to provide clear feedback and examples (and corny jokes, whenever possible). Dominique enjoys collaborating with consultees on how to meet the unique challenges of each client-therapist relationship.

Dominique has a special interest in Complex PTSD, Dissociation, and Attachment Trauma. She has completed extensive advanced EMDR trainings and consultations in these areas, as well as a number of other mental health and trauma-related conditions. Dominique is highly trained to use EMDR with preverbal trauma, behavioral addictions, and groups. She is trained in R-TEP, G-TEP, When There are No Words, The Progressive Approach, and Feeling-State Theory. As a Certified Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapist, Dominique is also able to consult with practitioners looking to utilize EMDR Therapy as a part of their KAP treatment plans.
