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.

2. Overview of structural dissociation for working with parts.
3. Understanding of variation in readiness of parts and ways to engage them.
4. Nightmares and flashbacks – some ideas for what helps.
5. Daily life issues for people with complex trauma and dissociation (e.g. driving, intimate relationships, work demands) and how to assist with these.
6. Practice-based examples are used to illustrate how the tri-phasic model will ebb and flow in practice.
Who Should Attend
As the content of this training builds on what Diane presented in the 101 workshop, it is highly recommended participants complete this Introduction to Complex Trauma 101 (with a brief look at dissociation) workshop first.
It is aimed at counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists, and other therapists and mental health workers.
About the Presenter, Diane Clare
Diane Clare is an experienced therapist and clinical psychologist working for over 40 years in the field of trauma and dissociation across a range of different settings. She has worked with clients with high levels of complexity often having complex PTSD and Dissociative difficulties. She offers supervision and training to providers who are challenged by the way that complex trauma impacts on their practice and on their capacity to manage their own responses to some of the confronting issues arising.
Through GROW, Diane already offers a range of workshops on practical skills relating to the issues arising in general therapeutic practice (e.g. working with BPD, NSSI, STEPPS for managing emotional intensity and ACC assessments - see below). During these training days with GROW, as well as in Diane's work as an ACC assessor and supervisor, she has noted there are sometimes gaps in providers' understanding in this area of work. It has become clear that there is a need to understand why and how working with complexity brings new challenges and how to manage them.
