Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
This page is your central resource for EMDR consultation. Whether you are working toward EMDR certification, seeking consultation to strengthen your clinical skills, or looking for ongoing professional support, you'll find the materials and information you need here.
This page houses consultation forms, required documentation, helpful resources, and additional tools to support your learning throughout the consultation process. As new resources become available, they will be added here to help you continue building confidence and competence in your EMDR practice.
My consultation approach is collaborative, supportive, and grounded in the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model and EMDR best practices. Consultation is intended to provide a space for thoughtful case conceptualization, skill development, and professional growth while maintaining fidelity to the EMDR model.
If you have any questions or cannot find what you are looking for, please don't hesitate to reach out at crysta@jackpinewellness.com . I look forward to supporting you on your EMDR journey.

I believe consultation should be a supportive and engaging learning experience. My goal is not simply to answer questions, but to help you develop confidence in your own clinical reasoning and decision-making. Together, we will explore cases through the lens of the Adaptive Information Processing model while fostering curiosity, reflective practice, and ongoing professional growth.
Learning EMDR is a journey. Every consultation is an opportunity to deepen your understanding, refine your skills, and become the clinician you aspire to be.
I look forward to working with you!
