Full course information
Being able to provide effective therapy for couples or individuals in such scenarios requires us, as therapists, to have multiple therapeutic approaches in our repertoire. We need to be able to:
- address intense conflict, overwhelming emotions and impulsive reactions
- help clients unravel the connections with deep-rooted traumatic patterns
- work with situations which present as chronic conflict – seemingly without hope and devoid of intention for resolution
- distinguish between implicit memories and body memories
- recognise and work with traumatic attachment
At this practical and engaging webinar designed for psychotherapists, psychologists and counsellors who work with either high conflict couples or individuals who struggle with self-sabotaged relationships, globally renowned trainer Dr Janina Fisher draws on her long-standing experience and expertise, to specifically address the impact of early neglect, attachment failure and childhood trauma on individuals who have developed an intense fear of intimacy in relationships.
Through Janina’s expert insightful commentary, in-session videos of couples, case studies and examples, we will be introduced to highly practical skills and learn effective clinical strategies that we can immediately apply in our clinical practices. Our examples and discussions will explore:
- How we can address intense emotions and impulsive reactions that undermine the sense of safety and hope
- Mindfulness-based techniques for decreasing conflict and changing trauma-related patterns
- Using externalizing techniques for increasing perspective
- Strategies for working with couples stuck in chronic conflict
- Providing psychoeducation about trauma and attachment to clients
- Increasing the ability of couples to observe their nonverbal communication and its impact on the relationship
- Integrating movement and gesture into couples’ therapy
- Identifying interventions that increase positive affect in the presence of the other
- Articulating the role of implicit memory in evoking the sense of threat in each partner
