Meet Amanda the Consultant

Hello! I'm Amanda Steed, an LCSW based in Dallas, TX. I hold EMDR certification and am an EMDRIA approved consultant for EMDR. I've completed Level One and Level Two IFS Trainings, focusing on IFIO (IFS Couples Therapy), along with advanced training sessions in EMDR & IFS. These include Dr. Kendhal Hart’s EMDR + IFS Protocol, Healing Spiritual Abuse with EMDR, and Treating OCD with EMDR. I have assisted Dr. Hart in facilitating practice groups for her EMDR + IFS Protocol trainings since Spring 2023. I thoroughly enjoy answering questions and guiding therapists in combining these two models while also learning from all the different perspectives on EMDR.

My drive to become a consultant came from my passion for teaching and supporting clinicians in their growth journey. The support I received from my consultants during my EMDR certification process significantly contributed to my understanding of the model. I am committed to seeking ongoing consultation in both EMDR and IFS to continually enhance my skills and competency. Through the consultation groups I lead, my aim is to offer assistance with the models while fostering a sense of community among colleagues who share my excitement for EMDR, IFS, and their integration.
