Beyond Words: Attachment, Trauma & Implicit Communication

with
Pat Ogden, Ph.D.

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

Emphasizing embedded relational mindfulness, this conference explores the legacy of trauma and attachment experience in determining affect regulatory capacities, procedural learning and implicit communication, and thus in large part, the quality of one's relationships with others and with oneself. Key components of Sensorimotor Psychotherapy will be illustrated using videotaped excerpts of sessions with traumatized individuals and brief experiential exercises: distinguishing interventions for trauma- vs attachment-related emotions; specific skills for embedded relational mindfulness; working with physical actions related to animal defensive subsystems and developmental movement sequences; building somatic resources; and developing a somatic sense of self.

CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES

Describe the Window of Tolerance
Explain relational mindfulness
Describe the role of the body in psychotherapy
List three specific movements to explore in therapy.
Define the “somatic narrative.”
