Description

Childhood developmental trauma leaves people with a legacy of overwhelming emotions and a fragmented sense of self. Unaware that their intense reactions represent communications from fragmented parts, these clients often resort to addictive behavior, self-harm, and suicidality when feeling hurt, threatened, or rejected. In this session, you’ll learn about Trauma-Informed Stabilization Treatment, a new model for understanding traumatized clients as inherently fragmented and at war with themselves. When trauma symptoms are understood and treated as emotional memories held by split-off, disowned parts of ourselves, even the most self-destructive clients become manageable. Discover how to help clients:

  • Make sense of their baffling and overwhelming inner experience
  • Increase their curiosity and interest in the feelings they usually avoid
  • Decode beliefs, emotions, and impulses in order to discover fragmentation
  • Establish an internal environment of safety
