Introduction to the Flash Technique
Copyright :
The Flash Technique is a safe and effective strategy for helping clients process trauma-related disturbance by having them focus on a positive anchor while traumatic memories are effortlessly processed in their background awareness. Depending on the type of trauma memory, Flash may be a complete intervention, or it may be paired with any of the therapies you utilize in your practice. Attend this session to learn from developer Dr. Phil Manfield, along with Dr. Lewis Engel. Flash Technique is an exciting, easy-to-apply, evidence-based technique that removes the engagement with painful memories element from other trauma processing modalities, while allowing healing to take place. In this fun and engaging workshop, you will:
- Learn the essential steps to applying the Flash Technique with traumatized clients
- Learn the lasted research about the safety and effectiveness of working in this way
- Compare EMDR and its compatibility with the technique
- See flash in action, both via in-session video and live demonstration
