Books
These resources are for other EMDR therapists that I post here after our consultation sessions. These are not intended for personal clinical use by clients. However, if you ever have a question, please ask!
This is the book you should read IMMEDIATELY. Written by my fantastic friend, Thomas Zimmerman, buy a copy if you would like, but he also offers a pdf for free!

Learning about people who are different than me.
I am continuously seeking to find media sources to learn about culture that is different than mine. I have linked some here. I am happy to add more, to hear feedback about what I have linked, and to add or to edit anything at any time. Please feel free to contact me if you would like me to add something or to edit something. I accept that these categories will never be sufficient, there is intersection between identities, and these might not be true/useful for all people.
