Shame and Self-Loathing in the Treatment of Trauma (Fisher HS I-045995)

Course overview

Internationally reowned trauma expert, Janina Fisher, Ph.D., will show you how to help clients relate to their symptoms with mindful dual awareness and curiosity rather than automatic acceptance. The techniques you’ll learn during this recording will make even the most complex clients easier to treat — and the interventions you’ll learn directly address the underlying causes of post-traumatic stress. Despite your best efforts, unshakeable feelings of shame and self-hatred often undermine treatment: your clients repeatedly take two steps forward, then one step back. In this one of a kind workshop you will understand shame from a neurobiological perspective — as a survival strategy driving somatic responses of automatic obedience and total submission — enforced by the client’s punitive introspection.
