methods to treat adult clients with comples PTSD - Some Basics
Presenter: JIM KNIPE
Brief summary:
Typically, clients come to therapy with a mixed presentation, not only of
difficult life experiences (big T and little t traumas), but also a history
of conscious or unconscious choices about how best to soothe, contain or
avoid the emotional disturbance that has resulted from those experiences. In
this presentation, I will describe some specific methods of using bi-lateral
stimulation to assist clients in "disinvesting" from defensive processes,
particularly avoidance and idealization defenses, so that unresolved
traumatic material may become more accessable to standard EMDR processing
Topics: (6 CEU hours) Each hour a Different
Video will illustrate the ideas being presented:
First hour– Working with ego
states/dissociated parts within an Adaptive Information Processing therapy approach –
three ways of using BLS -- targeting defense -- the “loving eyes” method
of targeting facilitating healing dialogue in a client with moderately dissociative
Parts– comparison with other models of dissociation: the Theory of Structural
Dissociation of the Personality and the Internal Family Systems model
Second hour -- Targeting psychological
defenses -- transcript examples of targeting avoidance defenses – Targeting urges
with AIP methods –
Third hour – video example of
treating an urge to smoke cigarettes
Forth hour – video example of
targeting a behavioral “addiction:” procrastination
Fifth hour -- Video example of targeting
avoidance defenses with AIP methods, with a client with dissociative symptoms
Sixth hour -- Video examples of targeting
idealization defenses – idealization of another person – idealization of self
