Meet the team

Welcome to the Meet the Board & Staff Page. EMDR Association UK is a charity and like all charities, we have a Board of Trustees, all of whom are volunteers. As Trustees we have the responsibility for managing the affairs of the Association. As a group, we bring a wide and varied range of skills, expertise, knowledge, and experience to the work of the Board. We also have a small group of part-time staff to help us run the organisation and support our members.

So, who are we all? I invite you to explore our Team Page below to find out.
