In this episode of Scaling Up Your Impact, host Kelly Smyth-Dent breaks down one of the most common questions among EMDR therapists: What’s the real difference between being EMDR-trained and EMDR-certified, and why should it matter to you or your clients?

Tune in as Kelly walks you through:

• What it means to be EMDR-trained (and what’s required to get there)
• The additional steps, supervision, and experience needed for EMDRIA Certification
• How certification can boost your credibility, confidence, and career options
• Why both milestones matter for your professional growth and the safety of your clients

Kelly also shares how Scaling Up’s fully online EMDR Certification Program can help you navigate the process with expert guidance, clinical training, and step-by-step support—no matter where you are on your journey.

Whether you’re just starting out, considering certification, or supporting colleagues along the way, this episode will help you make informed decisions about your next steps in EMDR.
