A Workshop for Practitioners

Have you delayed doing imagery because of your own anxieties about your practice? Have you had clients say - "I can’t remember my childhood" or "I can't do imagery"? Are you looking for novel ways to increase your skills and capacity to increase corrective emotional experiences in clients? Imagery Re-scripting is a key aspect of Schema Therapy and a powerful experiential tool. Furthermore, research over the last 10 years has focused on how imagery work can be utilized as a standalone therapy for childhood trauma. This workshop will focus specifically on how therapists can become more skilled in developing strong corrective emotional experiences that result in significant emotional cognitive and behavioural change. The workshop will include demonstrations of: 

1. imagery re-scripting of childhood trauma 

2. managing detachment and avoidance in imagery

3. imagery to strengthen healthy adult 

The workshop will utilize newly developed video teaching resources that focus specifically on imagery re-scripting work. Time will be allocated for role playing imagery re-scripting skills.
