A collaboration between Meadow Grove Counseling, LLC and Embodied Wisdom Institute
Steady Ground
EMDR group consultation, followed by Qigong and sound
You're warmly invited to join us in person for a day of connection, consultation, and shared learning. This is a space to bring clinical questions, consult around cases, and explore EMDR therapy's eight phases and standard three-pronged approach together. We can make room for a range of clinical presentations, including more complex cases, while honoring where you are in your own learning and practice.
The Qigong and sound portion of the day that follows consultation is offered as an invitation, not a requirement. You're welcome to participate in whatever way feels supportive to you. Some people may notice a sense of settling or groundedness; others may notice something different, or nothing in particular. There is no particular experience or outcome expected. It is simply an opportunity to pause, arrive, and be with yourself and others after consultation.

Consultation
Two hours of EMDR group consultation. Bring a case you are stuck on, a question about protocol, or a client who has been sitting heavy with you.
Qigong and sound
Consultation can sometimes leave a charge in the body, though not always. Whether or not that's true for you, this closing hour offers a chance to move slowly, breathe, and take in sound alongside your peers, a shared meditative practice to close out the session together.
Who this is for
- Clinicians who have completed EMDR Basic Training, certified or not
- Anyone who wants to sharpen case conceptualization or process a stuck case
- Clinicians working toward EMDRIA certification who need documented hours
What to bring
Water and clothes you can move in. Everything else is provided. You do not need a mat.
Group consultation credit

Meadow Grove Counseling, LLC and Embodied Wisdom Institute LLC are separate businesses founded by Vanessa Simmons. The Qigong and sound portion of this event is a wellness practice offered by Embodied Wisdom Institute. It is not psychotherapy, it is not a substitute for psychotherapy, and participation does not create a therapeutic relationship. Consultation is professional consultation for licensed and pre-licensed clinicians, not supervision toward licensure. Please consult your own physician before beginning any new movement practice.
