EMDR 2.0is a version of EMDR with a number of adjustments based onclinical experience with patients who have complex PTSD, scientific research into the working memory theory, and the effects of working memory-taxing tasks on traumatic memories. EMDR 2.0 is based on the premise that:- if the client is better motivated,
- if the memory is better activated, and
- if the patient’s working memory is taxed more strongly,
this has a positive influence on the effectiveness and efficiency of EMDR therapy.Treating Complex PTSD and Dissociation. There are a number of challenges when treating patients with Complex PTSD. These include:- client fears in confronting their memories and emotions,
- the possibility of severe abreactions,
- dissociative reactions that may limit access to trauma memories,
- the possibility that SUD levels do not decline, and
- that cognitive distortions (e.g., guilt) do not shift.
- In addition, other issues that are consistent with Complex PTSD (e.g., regarding negative self-concept, emotional dysregulation and difficulties in relationships) often need concurrent clinical work.
The purpose of this engaging workshop is to teach participants effective clinical approachesand treatment techniques to deal with individuals with Complex PTSD features, includingdissociation. The training will be illustrated by various case presentations and multiplevideo segments of treatment sessions with a wide range of individuals suffering fromComplex PTSD. Some techniques will be demonstrated live and participants will be givenopportunities and guidance to practice with the new material.Register Here: https://whova.com/portal/registration/ast_202212/ |
