GROUP 7 BEGINNING 1/2

This module

1. Develops foundational skills in the SE™ biophysiological model for the resolution of trauma.

2. Consists of two 6-day training modules, spaced 2 to 4 months apart

Beginning 1/2:

• Analyzes the physiology of traumatic stress and its effect on the autonomic nervous system (ANS)

• Practices the fundamental SE method of tracking sensation to access responses in the ANS

• Assesess the neurophysiology of each aspect of the threat response: defensive orientation, fight/flight/freeze, deactivation and completion, and exploratory orienting

• Develops skill in working with the SE model of tracking sensation to support completion of the threat-response cycle and incomplete survival responses

• Demonstrates how to “titrate” (modulate) the SE trauma-renegotiation process to ensure healthy integration of experience

• Begins to integrate Porges' Polyvagal Theory of ANS function

• Explains the SE model of SIBAM (Sensation, Image, Behavior, Affect, Meaning) and its significance in trauma

• Explores coupling dynamics—the over- and under-association of the elements of SIBAM and elements of physiological responses to traumatically-stressing experiences

• Supports clients in re-establishing and maintaining healthy boundaries

• Identifies, normalises, and stabilises traumatic reactions

• Acquires brief intervention skills that provide long-term solutions to acute and chronic symptoms of trauma

• Explores the integration of SE into ongoing professional practice

• Explores the appropriate use of touch in the context of SE?
