The foundations to begin working with complex trauma were covered in the Introduction to Complex Trauma 101 workshop where there was a brief look at the spectrum of dissociation. This follow up 201 workshop considers how to begin working more directly with complex trauma memories and the issues arising with dissociative parts. This webinar moves beyond the basics of the 101 webinar. It continues looking at complex trauma with particular emphasis on ways to safely move from phase 1 safety/psychoeducation and skills to then begin phase 2 trauma processing.
Even when there are some skills on board in terms of phase 1 work, some providers worry they will ‘get it wrong’ or ‘make things worse’ when looking at ways to help the client move beyond phase 1 of the tri-phasic trauma model. This webinar is designed to assist you in consolidating Phase 2 readiness and in looking at ways to work with dissociative parts. The tri-phasic model is an organic process rather than a linear process and entails managing differing states of readiness in a dissociated client. This webinar looks at how this ebb and flow of the phase 1 and phase 2 can be part of the weaving of the work with dissociative parts in safe and supportive ways.
The Learning Outcomes:
- Supporting readiness to move to trauma processing within the window of tolerance.
- Overview of structural dissociation for working with parts.
- Understanding of variation in readiness of parts and ways to engage them.
- Nightmares and flashbacks – some ideas for what helps.
- Daily life issues for people with complex trauma and dissociation (e.g. driving, intimate relationships, work demands) and how to assist with these.
- Practice-based examples are used to illustrate how the tri-phasic model will ebb and flow in practice.
