Description
Children affected by chronic trauma present with pervasive challenges in affect regulation, interoception and exteroception awareness.
And without adequate experiences of co-regulation, children with complex trauma become phobic of their own emotions perceiving them as dangerous leading to adaptations of trauma related phobias and rigid forms of self-protection—avoidance, control, pleasing, idealization and more – that block the healing of the very wounds they’re trying to protect.
Join Ana Gomez, world-renowned expert on the treatment of complex trauma as she shows you how to remove barriers to treatment by incorporating EMDR therapy, play therapy, parts work, and Sandtray therapy. You’ll discover the multiple pathways in which defenses are formed and the therapeutic portals into the protective system so the child can access their inner world and experiences to begin the healing.
If this system is not embraced, if defenses are not embraced and addressed, you risk the potential for therapy to become stagnant and impact the child’s therapeutic outcomes.
Don’t miss this opportunity to get the strategies you need to work around the entrenched forms of self-protection and move treatment forward!
