Description
'Shame, Trauma and Family Relationships' explores shame as a by-product of complex relational trauma. It draws on attachment and trauma theories, and narrative and family therapy concepts to explore how shame manifests through the experience of trauma. It explores the role of shame as a constraint to change in family work, particularly where there are wellbeing and protective issues with children.Workshop Style:
The workshop uses teaching, roleplay and experiential exercises to enhance your understanding of the role of shame as a consequence of trauma, and explores strategies and interventions you can use to support clients to move from shame towards self-efficacy, independence and empowerment.
