Description

How we deal with loss is complicated by a society that recognizes only certain types of losses. The loss of a safe and loving childhood may not be an obvious one, but therapists know the cost to their clients when it's not acknowledged. When left unprocessed, the intense pain of grief often leads to anger, either towards their attachment figures or themselves. In order to help clients safely grieve the wounds of childhood, we must have the right tools. In this session, you’ll discover a mindfulness-based somatic approach that:

  • Uses the body to achieve the optimal levels of sadness needed to process grief
  • Increases our clients’ ability to not only tolerate grief but befriend it in order to live at peace with losses from childhood
  • Diminishes the effects of isolation and loneliness in the past and present
