Healing The Divided Self
Dr. Maggie Phillips
Patients can present with a willingness to
use offered techniques beneficially, but experience partial or only transient
relief. So, how do we identify and resolve inner barriers to change ?
This course will teach you effective ways of promoting mastery and trauma
resolution through hypnosis, trauma reconstruction, ego-strengthening, the
therapeutic relationship, etc.
 | Course Objectives
 | Recognize three sources of divided self problems and the range of
clinical problems they can trigger. |
| Learn four phases of treatment and important therapeutic tasks for each
stage. |
| To be introduced to effective techniques that promote mastery of
symptoms, utilization of internal and external resources, corrective
maturational experiences, and personality integration. |
| Learn about ego-state therapy and the direct and indirect methods used
in repairing clinical issues related to self-division. |
|
| Course Description
| This workshop offers a wide range of treatment approaches within a
four-stage model of treatment designed to treat self-division resulting from
developmental conflicts and physical, sexual, emotional, and ritualized
abuse. These conditions include PTSD, atypical anxiety and depressive
disorders, and DID (dissociative identity disorder). Topic areas include
effective uses of hypnotic suggestion, reconstruction of trauma, false and
true memory issues, promoting mastery and resolution of traumatic
experiences, managing internal boundaries, developing self-soothing, and
enhancing personality integration. |
| Special attention is focused on ego-strengthening through positive
utilization of client resistances and defenses, resolution of various
post-traumatic symptoms, and ways of using the therapeutic alliance as a
powerful resource. |
| Participants are encouraged to bring their most difficult case material
for discussion. Live demonstrations, clinical case discussions, and practice
sessions are featured. |
