This is an advanced interactive 13 hour live online course for mental health professionals who treat individuals with a trauma history. In this course, we dive deeper in exploring the Discovery process outlined in previous IFS-Informed EMDR workshops, and moves all the way through healing (desensitization/reprocessing, retrieval, unburdening). It combines strategies and perspectives from Coherence Therapy derived from memory reconsolidation research, IFS, and EMDR in a gentle, organically unfolding way. Workshop learning is supported by a cohesive team of talented consultants who guide practice sessions and engage participants continuously via chat discussions simultaneous to Bruce's didactic presentation and live demonstrations. The Discovery process works like a centrifuge. A burdened & blended internal system led by a protector is a solution, both in the sense of solving a problem and in that it is like a mixture containing dissolved components. A centrifuge unblends the solution into its separate components. In a blended internal system, these components are Self, Protector, and Exile. Bilateral stimulation and attuned, informed curiosity, along with opportunistic and spontaneous Self-resourcing results in increasingly clearer differentiation of these components until a critical mass of Self-Energy flips the system into healing.At this point, functional dual attention is obtained and sustainable, leading to rapid and powerful healing processes commonly observed in the most successful and effective EMDR or IFS sessions; desensitization/reprocessing, retrieval, unburdening, etc.Learn the details, observe the process being set up and carried through into healing with live volunteer demos, and practice the skills you will bring into your sessions with clients.
