Additionally, I provide EMDR therapy to persons seeking healing from Perinatal Mental Health trauma. I am currently working towards my PMH-C.

Consultation Group Info

This BIPOC Group space is specifically held for clinicians identifying as Black, Indigenous, Latinx, Asian, and other traditionally underrepresented persons of color (BIPOC). I believe that creating this space for growth, for further development of EMDR Therapy for BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities is valuable to our historically underrepresented and marginalized communities.  I strive to fully realize and uplift my commitment to Social Justice by actively promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion within my BIPOC consultation and individual consultation.

EMDR Group BIPOC Consultations are led by me, Angélica Figueroa, LCSW, EMDRIA Certified Therapist, Consultant-In-Training. I am supported and guided by Jasmine Adams, LCSW, PMH-C EMDRIA Approved Consultant. This group is specifically held for clinicians identifying as Black, Indigenous, Latinx/Latine, Asian, and other traditionally underrepresented persons of color (BIPOC).The group consultation will support your training process and help you develop your implementation of EMDR Therapy into your current practice with the lens for how to guide participants presenting with complex trauma, generational trauma, oppression trauma, cultural stress, grief and loss, PTSD, and anxiety in the identification of targets that address oppression trauma, and address dissociation and more throughout the phases of EMDR.

I received my foundational training in EMDR by the Institute for Creative Mindfulness. The BIPOC Group Consultations are for BIPOC Clinicians working with BIPOC clients. These consultations take place over Zoom and count toward your first 10 hours of consultation if you have received your training through the Institute for Creative Mindfulness. If you are working towards EMDR Certification, hours also count towards your certification hours.

If you have questions or would like to reserve a spot in an upcoming BIPOC Group,  you can reach me at raicesyhearttherapy@gmail.com

Testimonials

What people are saying

"As an anti-racist political activist I move primarily in BIPOC spaces. As a therapist I move primarily in white spaces. This training is a model for other modalities, EFT, IFS, DBT, CBT, ACT, etc., to not only denounce racism but to take action in multiple ways."
José Alfaro, LCSW

"With the EMDR training scholarship discount I was able to help my therapy scholarship clients and even got to support Iranian therapists who are holding so much for their clients these days."
Dr. Hannah Alla Joharchi

"During my EMDR training, Dr. Jamie and ICM underscored that everyone has an experience somewhere along the dissociative spectrum. Their inclusivity nurtured my plural identity, and I could be myself without fear of judgment, whispers, or laughter. Their profound acceptance and respect made me feel seen, valued, and appreciated as a professional."

"ICM was one of the most well organized and engaging training platforms I have utilized. It allowed me to obtain a basic foundation in EMDR Therapy and bring the modality to a population of clients that otherwise wouldn’t have access to."

"For the first time, I met trainers who teach EMDR Therapy while integrating embodiment, creative techniques, mindfulness meditations, and all on TeleHealth!! I had transforming experiences personally during my own EMDR processing and learned how to utilize the standard EMDR protocol. Now, I am using EMDR Therapy with Sandtray Therapy and reaching new goals in my business!
Thank you Jamie & ICM!"

"Thank you ICM for sharing the remarkable, life-changing gift of EMDR therapy! I can't emphasize enough how my learning through ICM (trainings, Jamie's webinars, videos, etc.), and its incredibly supportive community, has been a complete game changer for me both personally and professionally. Truly grateful, and as we often say in EMDR sessions, I'll "just go with that!"."

"The ability to learn EMDR virtually was truly a transformative process. Through ICM, I have developed needed clinical skills and gained a network of amazing, trauma-informed clinicians that are passionate about providing top-notch care. The combination of mindfulness techniques with the standard EMDR protocol has been a game changer in my practice, providing much needed healing for those in which I serve. Thank you, Dr. Marich and Staff!"

"Dr. Jamie Marich has designed an EMDR training that is nothing shy of AMAZING! As the Founder of the "only" Therapist of Color Collaborative in the State of Colorado, being trained by someone who could help digest what is a very scripted protocol, and make it more culturally relevant was imperative. She did so with ease, patience, AND a bang up team of EMDR Trainers!"

"The Institute for Creative Mindfulness' trainings have been pivotal in my career and my personal healing and growth path. EMDR therapy training has equipped me to be a competent trauma therapist - something that, in my opinion, is an ethical imperative for anyone working in the mental health field. The ICM consultants and practitioner community keeps me growing in my skills and knowledge, as well as supported by a vast and diverse community of professionals."
