Understanding Complex Trauma
Understanding Complex Trauma; Applying Art therapy, Somatic Nervous System Principles and Support for you as the practitioner.
This Professional development is designed for clinicians and Arts Therapists who would like to better understand how Complex Trauma presents in the nervous system, where to focus Art Therapy interventions, and how to best look after yourself as the practitioner. The 4 hours will involve Art making, discussion and reflective practice and theory.
The link between Art therapy and the body is a common and natural association. We will be viewing Complex Trauma through the lenses of the Polyvagal theory and Somatic Experiencing principles to understand the underlying nervous system mechanics and states. We will be referring to Kathy Kain’s work as an expert body worker in the field of SE, complex trauma and attachment; from her latest book, Restoring Resilience. www.somaticpractice.net/about/
Connections will be drawn between Art and its therapeutic function, the body’s experience, expressed via the nervous system and how repair and recovery may appear for this population group.
Presenter: Tania Virgona is an Art Therapist, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, and Supervisor with a range of experience working with trauma. She has worked with refugees, veterans, in drug and alcohol, mental health and with survivors of family violence where she initiated the Children’s Therapeutic Program. Tania currently runs her own private practice and studio working with trauma and creativity. She primarily works with developmental and complex trauma using Art Therapy and advanced Touch skills for trauma regulation and renegotiation and The Creative Continuum studio offers individuals and groups art and therapy for the continuum of health and wellbeing.
