Training Program in Affect Regulation, Attachment, and Trauma<br />
Level I: Affect Dysregulation, Survival Defenses, and Traumatic Memory<br />
Starting November 22, 2013<br />
Vancouver, BC<br />
Traditional psycho<strong>the</strong>rapy addresses <strong>the</strong> cognitive and emotional elements of trauma but lacks techniques that work directly with <strong>the</strong><br />
physiological elements, despite <strong>the</strong> fact that trauma profoundly affects <strong>the</strong> body and that so many symp<strong>to</strong>ms of traumatized<br />
individuals are somatically driven, including affect in<strong>to</strong>lerance, au<strong>to</strong>nomic reactivity, vegetative depressive symp<strong>to</strong>ms, impulsivity,<br />
and anxiety. All of <strong>the</strong>se clinical issues are inaccessible or difficult <strong>to</strong> treat in a talking <strong>the</strong>rapy context without a way <strong>to</strong> include <strong>the</strong><br />
bodily symp<strong>to</strong>ms in treatment.<br />
The Sensorimo<strong>to</strong>r Psycho<strong>the</strong>rapy ® Level I Training presents simple, body-oriented interventions for tracking, naming, and safely<br />
exploring trauma-related, somatic activation, creating new competencies and res<strong>to</strong>ring a somatic sense of self. Students will learn<br />
effective, accessible interventions for identifying and working with disruptive somatic patterns, disturbed cognitive and emotional<br />
processing, and <strong>the</strong> fragmented sense of self experienced by so many traumatized individuals. Techniques are taught within a phaseoriented<br />
treatment approach, focusing first on stabilization and symp<strong>to</strong>m reduction. Sensorimo<strong>to</strong>r Psycho<strong>the</strong>rapy can be easily and<br />
effectively integrated in<strong>to</strong> psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and EMDR-focused treatments.<br />
