NEW! Clinical Supervision & EMDR Consultation
with Jill Harmon, LCSW-R, CCTP-II
EMDR Certified Therapist • EMDRIA-Approved Consultant

Jill is an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant and all consultation hours provided may be applied toward EMDRIA Certification requirements when applicable.

Are you building confidence with EMDR and looking for support from someone who actually uses it every day in real clinical work?

I now offer individual and group EMDR consultation for therapists who are:

• Completing consultation hours toward EMDR Certification
• Newly trained and wanting support using EMDR in real cases
• Experienced clinicians refining their EMDR skills in complex trauma work

My approach is collaborative and supportive — consultation is a space to think out loud, get unstuck, and grow without criticism or performance pressure.

Even well-meaning parents can fall into this category. The problem isn’t just difficult behavior—it’s a lack of true emotional connection. You might leave interactions feeling drained, dismissed, or even like a child again, no matter your age. Click to read more!

Emotionally immature parents can leave their adult children feeling confused, guilty, or perpetually “not enough.”
