This home study course (available in audio or near verbatim transcript) provides the theoretical framework and organizing principles for incorporating affect tolerance, Resource Development, and Installation, and EMDR trauma reprocessing into successful overall treatment plans.
Principles for case formulation and treatment planning are presented that integrate adult attachment status, the formation of affect scripts and emotional self-regulation capacities, the severity of dissociative symptoms as well as specific traumatic experiences.
Participants will learn specific treatment strategies and methods for working with adults whose childhood failed to meet basic needs for stability and attachment and who may have been exposed to chronic trauma.
