PSI (PsychoSomatic Integration) approaches psychological trauma treatment by starting at the site of first impact: the body. Psychological trauma causes "bottom up hijacking," whereby any trigger to a remembered traumatic experience can be perceived as a threat to survival and invoke fight/flight impulses that cascade into a form of psychological shutdown. Before any psychotherapeutic intervention can be effective, this cascade must be addressed. PSI does this by integrating bodily mindfulness approaches with ego state work and feminist relational therapy. Ego state work addresses the fragmenting effects of long-term developmental trauma, for those clients with a more chronic trauma history. And because long-term developmental trauma occurs in the context of a relationship, awareness of the therapeutic relationship is seen as the foundation for all other interventions. Relational therapy balances the study of structures or patterns of self experience with the study of persons in interpersonal process.
The training blends lecture, experiential exercises, live and video
demonstrations, case presentations, and role-play practice sessions to
help clinicians integrate the theoretical material in a way that fits with their
own common sense and years of education, clinical and personal experience.
Particular attention is paid to the practitioner's countertransference while
developing strategies for self-care. Skills learned include: somatic resourcing,
embodiment, pacing, titration, self-soothing; and EMDR derivatives designed to
build ego strength and process and integrate dissociated experiences and aspects
of self. To learn more, check the links below: eating and body image issuesintroduction (12 hours) intermediate (12 hours) advanced (10 hours)Fee for the Intermediate: $360 Fee for the Advanced: $300.00 Eating and body image issues are based on a fundamental split in which the body becomes objectified and forced to "submit" to the mind. All three seminars are based on the anti-diet, psychosomatic approach to working with compulsive overeaters, bulimics and anorexics. The anti-diet, psychosomatic approach joins with the body, teaches mindfulness, intuitive eating, and self-compassion, and this ultimately not only changes eating problems, it changes lives. The seminars will include live, video and audio demonstrations, case supervision and role plays.
Half day, whole day and weekend trainings can be developed and adapted to the unique needs of your particular group or agency. Contact the PSI Institute to make arrangements. Below are some examples of past presentations and workshops. Sample of Past Conference Presentations, Workshops, and In-service Trainings
These approaches to mind and body healing are integrated to address the whole person.
Individual supervision sessions for psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, and body therapists can be arranged as time permits. The fee for this service is $120 for a 50 minute session. We'll work with the therapeutic relationship as it presents itself in the supervision relationship. Your health and well being as a therapist are paramount to your ability to help your patients/clients, and so part of the work will be to help you develop resilience in your work. Supervision will also help you to adapt your individual approaches and techniques to meet the needs of your specific patients/clients.
