The workshop is designed to help clinicians with developing coherent narratives and reconstructing memories of likely experiences in childhood for clients who lack memory of childhood due to chronic trauma and chronic sub-traumatic experiences. The purpose is to assist clients in making sense of their experiences as adults that resonate from these childhood experiences in order to reduce inappropriate guilt and self-blame for distress and difficulties in their personal and interpersonal relationships and mental health symptoms, and to begin healing from these experiences.
Objectives:
Understand how chronic childhood adverse experiences can cause limited memory of childhood
Describe the role of attachment in the the interruption of memory integration and formation
Learn how to implement four brief intervention skills that assist with the construction of childhood narratives through the identification of probable themes and patterns of experience, and likely interpersonal experiences, where there is a lack of memory
