Description
Mindfulness works! If you respond to the novel and unique sensations of the body, brain and mind in the present moment, you can make your treatment more effective.
Have fun while gathering mindfulness tools to individualize your psychotherapy. Attend this cutting-edge seminar with Dr. Terry Marks-Tarlow for a hands-on, yet informative approach to filling your clinical toolbox.
In this workshop you will use the developmental neurobiology of attachment and trauma as a framework. Dr. Marks-Tarlow will take you through guided meditations to still the mind and calm an over-aroused autonomic nervous system. Drawing and other art techniques will be shown to help clients focus attention and boost self-awareness. Dr. Marks-Tarlow will explain how central metaphors from dreams and spontaneous images help to address somatic symptoms and unify mind/body/brain healing. You will also discover the power of associative mindsets to playfully approach problem-solving with clients. You will learn yoga as a moving meditation that offers a unique set of embodied metaphors.
Watch this recording and gain a neurologically-based understanding of how each technique can apply to clinical disorders like depression, anxiety and PTSD. Enjoy Dr. Marks-Tarlow’s engaging and inspirational style and leave equipped with tools for your clinical practice.
