How it Works:

A Turnkey Solution for EMDR Therapists

1. The Problem (Limited Visibility, Mismatched Referrals, Professional Isolation)

  • Many EMDR therapists take lower pay than they should, and struggle to find high-quality referrals that match their expertise, often relying on insurance-driven models that undervalue specialized care.

  • The existing mental health marketplace makes it difficult to connect with agencies, first responders, and high-performance professionals who truly benefit from advanced EMDR applications.

  • Without consistent consultation and professional development, therapists may find themselves isolated or uncertain about how to refine their skills in special protocols, performance enhancement, and complex trauma treatment.

2. The Solution (Helicon: A Vetted EMDR Ecosystem Built for Growth)

  • Gain access to a supportive EMDR community, where therapists cross-pollinate ideas, exchange referrals, and sharpen their skills through ongoing consultation and training.

  • Helicon’s private therapist directory markets you directly to agencies, organizations, and high-stress professions seeking specialized trauma recovery and performance-focused care.

  • Work toward EMDRIA and Helicon Certification, ensuring you are positioned as a top-tier specialist in an exclusive, high-impact provider network.

3. The Outcome (More Referrals, More Growth, More Impact)

Take Control of Your EMDR Career with Helicon

Too many EMDR therapists struggle in isolation, unsure of how to grow their skills, attract the right clients, or gain certification. Without the right support and referrals, it’s easy to feel stuck—underutilizing your training, scrambling for mismatched clients, and missing the full potential of your practice.

If you're not actively working toward certification and consultation, you may face:

🚩 Never Becoming an EMDR Certified Therapist – Many therapists start the EMDR journey but never complete certification due to lack of guidance, cost concerns, or not knowing the next steps. Without certification, you may struggle to build credibility, attract the right clients, and qualify for advanced opportunities. Interested in consultation toward certification? Fill out this interest form and let us know!

🚩 Stagnation in Your Clinical Growth – Without consultation and mentorship, it’s easy to feel uncertain about when and how to modify EMDR for complex cases, leaving you less effective and less confident in your skills.

🚩 Professional Isolation – Many therapists end up practicing alone, missing out on peer collaboration, expert guidance, and access to an engaged EMDR community. Without a strong network, your learning plateaus and your professional connections remain limited.

🚩 Scrambling for Referrals & Taking Mismatched Clients – Without a reliable marketing referral source, many EMDR therapists end up taking on cases that don’t align with their expertise—or worse, relying on insurance-driven models that devalue specialized trauma work and limit financial growth.
