Description:
This class is for graduates of the Easy Ego State Interventions training. Participants from that class responded to a survey about what follow-up they’d like to have. They wanted more demonstrations, more lecture, and more practice. They wanted a review of how to conceptualize dissociation. They wanted to know how I started therapy with new clients and how the planning changed with different levels of dissociation.
This class will include more practice, more demonstrations, more time for questions and some case consultation, and a video of a DID client who has been in and out of therapy for 40 years. I’ll be discussing usage of the Flash Technique and EMDR 2.0, Polyvagal techniques, and books that weren’t available when I started teaching this class. It will include a brief update on the chronic pain/MCS protocol for use with Tinnitus and Long Covid.
This is an advanced program for all mental health professionals.
