Working with Developmental Deficits: A Resource Oriented Approach: Video Course
Working with Developmental Deficits: A Resource Oriented Approach: Video Course
In adult psychotherapy, we often see clients who have missed out certain developmental stages during childhood and are left with developmental deficits – that can show up across emotional, affect regulatory and behavioural manifestations – with significant impact on our client’s lives. These are particularly devastating when they affect our clients’ self-regulatory mechanisms – causing upheavals throughout their emotional and social lives and profoundly impacting their resilience to stressful and traumatic events.

Full course information
Not only are such manifestations difficult to provide therapy for, but it can also be a frustrating therapeutic journey – which is bound to be slow and can happen in barely discernible increments. However, when clients persist in the work, and we can guide them effectively as psychotherapists and counsellors; they can eventually:
- gain better stress-management skills and become more able to deal with life’s challenges
- learn new self-confidence
- start having faith in their own ability to reach out for what they want and get it
- overcome their crippling shame and
- step out from the shadow of destructive self-talk
At this therapeutically oriented webinar, Dr Kathrin Stauffer, the acclaimed author of Emotional Neglect and the Adult in Therapy: Lifelong Consequences to a Lack of Early Attunement – explains that we can fill these developmental gaps through a resource-oriented approach. She uses clinical examples to explain what being resource-oriented means in practice, which therapeutic tools serve us well, which new ones we want to add to our repertoire, and the main difficulties that we are likely to encounter along the way. She likens such a therapeutic approach to the therapist being a gardener who goes through preparing the ground, sowing the seeds and then patiently waiting for the results – since providing resources essentially means helping clients grow new resources from scratch. The psychotherapist in this case has to:
- work through any remnants of traumatisation,
- help clients access new images, visions and skills that feel creative and inspiring,
- patiently wait for results while maintaining a good therapeutic relationship
Using case vignettes and interactive discussions, the workshop will enable participants to:
- Gain up-to-date insight into developmental deficits and some of their consequences in adult life
- Learn to distinguish a resource-oriented psychotherapy approach from a conflict-oriented one
- Hone their skills in making resource-oriented interventions
- Become familiar with some of the potential difficulties in working with developmental deficits
Delegates will have the opportunity to bring their own case material for discussion.
