Description
One of the keys to helping clients move beyond trauma is to help them learn how to access safety and positive resource states instead of repeatedly experiencing threats that no longer exist. In this workshop, we’ll focus on specific tools for reading clients’ psychological and physical cues and using their natural instincts to heal and rebalance their physiology.
Outline
- Master the SIBAM model for systematically observing clients' nonverbal responses.
- Guide clients in "riding the waves" of their sensations as they exit from their immobility response and experience release from their original trauma.
- Titrate your interventions to maximize your impact and avoid retraumatizing vulnerable clients.
