Our Charitable Work

The EMDR Academy are passionate about supporting EMDR charities through offering our staff's time in training and clinical supervision whilst also making donations to causes we believe in. We are also a climate positive workforce and strive to offset as much of our carbon footprint as we can.

    Number of Charities Supported

Beyond the amount of money donated to charity, nearly all the EMDR Academy training team regularly give their time and expertise on a voluntary basis back to the EMDR community. For example, Matthew Wesson - our lead trainer, gives up around 1 day per week through various EMDR related voluntary roles. This includes his work on the EMDR UK board of trustees (where he is currently President-Elect), provision of free training on Trauma Aid courses, his input on national NHS psychotherapy committees, and EMDR related projects, amongst other tasks. Our team are so passionate about the capacity of EMDR therapy to help and heal, and this is why we are always looking to give something back.
