Description

This one day workshop explores shame as a bi product of trauma. It draws on Attachment and Trauma theories, Narrative Therapy and Family Therapy to explore how shame is manifest through the experience of trauma. It explores the role of shame as a constraint in families and in family work, particularly where there are wellbeing and protective issues with children.

It assists practitioners to identify how shame manifests in their client group and how to address and explore it with clients.

The workshop uses teaching, role-play and experiential exercises to enhance participants' understanding of the role of shame as a consequence of trauma and explores strategies and interventions to support clients to move from shame towards self-efficacy, independence and empowerment.

This event will cover:

  • Understand shame as a manifestation of trauma
  • Explore how the experience of shame can impact the individual
  • Identify the ways in which shame can adversely affect family relationships
  • Learn specific strategies to discuss shame with clients
  • Practice ways to support clients to move away from the influence of shame
