An experiential introduction to EMDR informed coaching
We warmly invite EMDR colleagues across East Anglia, the rest of the UK and worldwide to our autumn networking day on Friday 20 November 2026.
We are proud to have secured as our speaker Dr Hannah Bryan, Founder of the EMDR informed coaching school.
An introduction to EMDR informed coaching and The Uplift Breakthrough® is an experiential workshop designed for EMDR therapists who are curious about taking their existing EMDR skills beyond the traditional therapy room and into the world of personal growth, performance, wellbeing and coaching.
Throughout the workshop, we explore how the principles we already understand through EMDR and the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model can be used not only to help people heal from the past, but also to help them move towards the future they want to create.
Participants are introduced to the Uplift Breakthrough® approach and experience practical ways of helping clients identify what may be holding them back, process blocks to progress, connect with their strengths and resources, and build a compelling vision of where they want to go next.
We also explore the wider possibilities of EMDR-informed coaching: what makes coaching different from therapy, how we can work safely and ethically within a coaching context, and how these skills can open up opportunities to work with a different population of clients who may not be seeking therapy or symptom reduction, but who want to grow, perform, develop and thrive.
Alongside the clinical and practical learning, the workshop invites therapists to think about their own future too. We explore how EMDR-informed coaching could sit alongside an existing therapy practice, create greater variety and balance in our work, and potentially provide new and innovative income streams.
The workshop is interactive, combining teaching, reflection, discussion and experiential exercises. Participants leave with practical ideas they can begin applying immediately, alongside a broader understanding of what becomes possible when we start asking:
What if EMDR isn’t only a model for healing from what has happened, but can also help us understand how people move towards who they want to become?”
Dr Hannah Bryan is a Clinical Psychologist, EMDR Europe Accredited Trainer and Consultant, and the founder of the EMDR-Informed Coaching School. Having worked with EMDR for over 20 years, Hannah is passionate about exploring how EMDR and the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model can be used beyond the traditional therapy room to support growth, performance and wellbeing.
She is the creator of The Uplift Breakthrough®, an EMDR-informed coaching approach that brings together EMDR principles and coaching psychology to help people move beyond what is holding them back and towards the future they want to create.
Through her training, workshops and certification programmes, Hannah supports EMDR therapists to develop their skills, expand the way they work and explore new possibilities for their practice.”
