Easy Ego State Interventions 2 Day Workshop, presented by Robin Shapiro

Robin Shapiro's Easy Ego State Interventions training is a deep dive into a new way to regard the client in front of you, with many practical interventions that will change how you work with your clients. Participants learn how to see clients through the lens of ego state therapy and EMDR and to distinguish healthy, flexible states from dissociative ones. They learn to clear trauma, work with couples, work with sexual issues with abuse survivors, address shame, pain, personality disorders, and dissociative identity disorder through lecture, practice, and case examples. The training is appropriate for both EMDR and non-EMDR practitioners. By the end of the training you will know how to:<ul><li>Describe the 3 Polyvagal States.</li><li>Distinguish between Dissociative and Other Ego States</li><li>Utilize the 2-Hand Interweave.</li><li>Utilize a simple ego state intervention for simple trauma.</li><li>Describe ways to use ego state work in Couples’ Therapy.</li><li>Describe and apply Jim Knipe’s Shame Protocol.</li><li>Describe and apply Ego State Work with Borderline and Narcissistic Clients.</li><li>Describe the 3 stages of work with DID clients, from the Theory of Structural Dissociation.</li><li>Describe and utilize the Dissociative Table and alternative ways to organize and contain dissociative parts.</li><li>Describe when it’s safe to do trauma work with DID clients and when to use and not use EMDR.</li><li>Utilize appropriate trauma strategies with Dissociative Disorder clients, including modified EMDR protocols, modified Life Span Integration, and others.</li><li>Utilize EMDR and ego state therapy to heal over-active immune systems and chronic pain.</li><li>Utilize ego state therapy with suicidal clients.</li></ul>Robin Shapiro is a practical, clear, and entertaining speaker, who is responsive to questions and the needs of the participants.

Most are using the material as soon as they get back to work. From one participant: “It was full to the brim, well-structured and lots of demonstrations. I learned tons and would recommend her wholeheartedly. And I now know myself very differently!”These will be two full days, 10am to 6pm, with breaks.12 CEUs available (LMHC, LMFT, LCSW).12 EMDRIA Credits are available for those who have completed an EMDRIA-approved Basic EMDR training.Here's an interview with Robin about Ego State Therapy: <a href="https://emdartnscience.com/emdr-ego-state-therapy/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://emdartnscience.com/emdr-ego-state-therapy/</a>C﻿E credits issued by The CE Company.
