One day Training in the
Therapeutic Spiral Model
Following BPA:
The Trauma Survivor’s
Intrapsychic Role Atom
Date & Time: Monday 28th June 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Cost : £87, (£77 for students), including lunch.
Venue : BPA conference venue, Cirencester.
This one day workshop presents the opportunity to learn or relearn an overview of the Therapeutic Spiral Model ™ to treat Post-traumatic Stress Disorder. TSM, as it is commonly called, has become the most recognized system of clinical psychodrama around the world to treat trauma. Dr Kate received the Scholar’s Award from the American Society of Group Psychotherapy and Psychodrama in 2009 and her edited book Stories at the Frontlines: Clinical and Community Actions Around the World Using the Therapeutic Spiral Model (2010) showcases two authors from the UK, Chip Chimera and Clark Baim.
You will learn how to use Role Theory to assess a protagonist or client’s personality structure for containment, strengths, and trauma roles, promoting safety at all levels of psychodramatic enactment. Learn a paper and pen, enactment of role atom, and scene one of Prescriptive Roles that can be used in individual, couples, family and group psychotherapy. Theory, practice, and processing can all be experienced in this one day training. You can also join in the experience of a like-minded community seeking a method of healing trauma that defines spontaneity through the enactment of the Prescriptive roles as we all stay in the here and now. Clinical psychodrama is enhanced by shamanic energy medicine and mindfulness training for a thoroughly healing day.
Dr Kate is an internationally known expert on PTSD, having worked in over a dozen countries in the last 20 years teaching people about experiential therapy using The Therapeutic Spiral Model. As mentioned above she has received the 2009 Scholar’s award as well as the 2001 Innovator’s Award from ASGPP. She is a published author of 4 books, including Experiential Treatment of PTSD: The Therapeutic Spiral Model (2002) and 19 peer reviewed articles. She is the founder of Therapeutic Spiral International and holds regular training groups in the USA, Canada, Taiwan, China, and Japan. She returns to the UK after a long absence. We welcome her back and hope you will join us in this first workshop of 2010.
Kate will be assisted by Chip Chimera and Enid MacNeill.
