You can learn and practice EMDR in a way that feels true to you, with both fidelity and heart.

I’m Jackie Flynn, a trauma therapist and EMDR trainer who helps clinicians feel confident using EMDR with children, teens, and families so their clients can experience lasting healing and deep integration.

Hi there, I’m so glad you’re here.

EMDR helps the brain do something remarkable.

It gives your clients a way to move through the hard places rather than getting stuck in them. When you learn this work, you don’t just add another tool. You gain a clearer path for helping your clients heal in a way that feels true and grounded.

If you have been thinking about becoming trained in EMDR, this is a good place to begin. You will learn a model that honors the nervous system, respects the child’s story, and gives you a reliable framework you can trust session after session.

The right training does more than teach you the steps. It helps you find your voice as an EMDR therapist. It gives you a map. It gives you confidence. It helps you show up with presence instead of pressure.

If you are ready to take this next step in your work, I would love to walk with you.

Our Services

Trainings

I provide EMDRIA approved EMDR Basic and advanced trainings, offered both online and in person. As an EMDRIA Approved Trainer and Registered Play Therapist Supervisor, I strive to create experiential, relational, and supportive learning spaces where therapists can grow in skill and confidence as they work with children, adults, and families.

Consultation

I offer EMDRIA approved consultation with me or a trusted member of my team. As a Registered Play Therapist Supervisorā„¢ and a Qualified Supervisor in the state of Florida, I provide supportive, growth-focused consultation for clinicians at every stage of their EMDR journey. This includes honing clinical skills, navigating difficult cases, and working toward EMDRIA Certification. I also provide consultation in training for those on the path to becoming Consultants in Training (CIT).

Therapy

In addition to training and consultation, I offer therapy for children, teens, adults, and couples in Florida. My approach draws from EMDR, play therapy, expressive work, and the natural world. I specialize in EMDR intensives, offered in Cocoa Beach and online, which provide extended time and support for deeper healing than weekly therapy often allows.
