🧠 Help Your Clients Stop “Just Talking” and Start Reprocessing

  • Reduce session derailment into talk therapy
  • Strengthen self-awareness, clarity, and intention

  • Fillable PDF form (no printing required!)
  • Psychoeducation-based check-in questions
  • Window of tolerance mapping
  • Parts/ego state self-awareness prompts
  • Optional space for client feedback and questions
  • Trauma-informed, CPTSD-friendly, and therapist-approved
💡 Created by a Certified EMDR Therapist & EMDRIA Approved Consultant
