Brain Switch: Apply Polyvagal and Memory Reconsolidation Theories with Parts Work, Somatic, and Mindful Approaches – Kate Cohen-Posey

You may be excited about cutting-edge advances in brain research, but do you know how to translate them into practical methods that may reduce clients’ resistance, transform deeply disturbing emotions, and reinforce treatment interventions? Clients can be taught to locate hidden strengths and dissolve distress by activating their brains’ reward centers. In this workshop, we’ll use tools developed from memory reconsolidation and Polyvagal Theory.

1. Explore the therapeutic impact of activating brain centers that neutralize stressful neurochemicals
2. Explore how to regulate sensations from disturbing emotions by balancing them with uplifting neurochemicals
3. Explore the power of visual images to externalize distress, enhance attunement, and create pathways to implicit memories and inner assets
4. Explore ways to integrate a variety of therapeutic approaches into a three-step, brain-based protocol that can be used with diverse populations and ages
