EMDR with FND (Functional Neurological Disorder) and EMDR with Personality Disorder: A practical workshop

A split day CPD event with 6 CPD points, facilitated by Kate Chartres

Morning Session: EMDR with FND

Aims:
 To have an increased understanding of what persistent physical symptoms
including FND are/ and why they are important.
 Client case studies and outcomes will bring the session to life allowing an
understanding of what it is like for people to live with these symptoms.
 The session will cover a step-by-step guide for each phase of EMDR
treatment, utilising clinical examples.

Afternoon Session: EMDR with Personality Disorder

Aims:
 Expand knowledge of emotional dysregulation development and diagnostic
frameworks, utilising Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) informed principles.
 Build empathy by understanding the lived experiences of individuals with
BPD.
 Highlight the critical role of validation when working with this client group.
 Explore how trauma—including trauma associated with healthcare
experiences—shapes individuals' mental health.
 Apply a trauma-informed framework that integrates the Adaptive Information
Processing (AIP) model in preparation for EMDR.
 Develop practical skills for EMDR, focusing on preparation and tailored
approaches for desensitization and processing, aligned with the 8-phase
model.

Both sessions aim to create a respectful and inclusive space for clinicians,
practitioners, and others seeking to enhance their skills in working with
diverse client groups, including those from underserved and marginalised
communities.
