OVERVIEW
Attachment-Focused EMDR: Healing Developmental Deficits and Adults Abused as Children is organized by Institute for Better Health (IBH) and will be held during Apr 06 - 07, 2018 at Revere Hotel Boston Common, Boston, Massachusetts, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event is Traumatologists, Psychotherapists. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 12 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Course Description :
Over the last two decades, EMDR has emerged as one of the most powerful clinical tools available to trauma therapists. In this workshop, Dr. Laurel Parnell will teach you how to integrate an attachment focus into EMDR and use EMDR in combination with a variety of complementary techniques.
Much of this workshop is built around videos of actual clinical sessions conducted by Dr. Parnell. These videos bring the training to life: participants can see, not just hear about, how the ideas and procedures they’re learning are used with real patients in the real world. Dr. Parnell is an EMDRIA Approved Basic Training Provider as well as an experienced and highly skilled therapist. Her workshops are as enjoyable as they are instructive, and consistently receive rave reviews.
The First Day will learn to use the five basic principles of attachment-focused EMDR. For many traumatized patients, attachment repair is a critically important component of successful treatment - a component that can be accomplished effectively and efficiently by using EMDR within a positive therapeutic alliance. Videotaped demonstrations, discussion, and practice will help you define the differences between attachment-focused EMDR and a more traditional approach. In addition, Dr. Parnell will emphasize how the technique called “Resource Tapping” can be used to repair developmental deficits as well as to help prepare clients for trauma processing work. You will watch Dr. Parnell use Resource Tapping, will have a chance to practice the technique yourself, and will learn how to integrate it with EMDR.
The Day Two, In addition to modified protocols, Dr. Parnell will present standard EMDR protocols that work effectively with this very challenging population. Victims of early abuse may easily become distressed, dissociated, or avoidant. EMDR therapists may need a specific and advanced understanding of the EMDR method, as well as additional skills, to work with them successfully. Topics addressed during the day will include: how to modify standard EMDR procedural steps with patients abused as children when necessary; developing appropriate targets; recognizing and dealing with blocked processing; using interweave strategies, working with abreactions, dissociation, and memory chaining; and much more. Participants will leave with an array of new insights, ideas, perspectives, and techniques that will help them be more effective with victims of childhood abuse.
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
