Therapeutic Practice

The session explores the later stages of the three-phased approach to trauma treatment. Phase 2 (Trauma Processing) focuses on the application of strategies for safe therapeutic work informed by an understanding of traumatic memory. The training also explores Phase 3 (Integration), supporting practitioners to strengthen their skills in helping clients integrate their trauma experiences into their broader life story.

The session explores the importance of a phased approach when working therapeutically with complex trauma, with a primary focus on Phase 1: Safety and Stabilisation. Participants will gain essential knowledge and practical tools to support safety, stability and therapeutic engagement, strengthening their capacity to support recovery for clients impacted by complex trauma.

This training explores dissociation as a continuum, from common experiences in everyday life through to more complex trauma-related dissociation. Participants will develop a deeper understanding of how dissociation can present in people impacted by complex trauma and how it may emerge within therapeutic work, supporting therapists to work safely and effectively with dissociation in therapeutic settings.

This masterclass offers practical and theoretical exploration of the broad intersections between the neurobiology of trauma and the ‘bottom-up’ and ‘top-down’ healing pathways that Yoga can provide. Research and lived experience will bring informed insight into how Yoga can work with body, mind, emotions and various levels of consciousness, thus supporting gradual, self-paced healing of the complex effects of trauma, both hidden and expressed.

This webinar explores the distinct challenges, and opportunities, involved in setting and sustaining boundaries in complex trauma counselling which are both effective and compassionate. The aim of this webinar is to increase awareness of the enhanced risks to effective boundaries in complex trauma counselling and suggest strategies to transform risk into opportunity.
