Course Description

Annika’s

This course is designed to present practitioners with a deepened AEDP approach, using the Self
of the Therapist , which has been shown to be efficacious for treating attachment trauma and the
shutdown state or insulated Self that is the result of the trauma of deep neglect. We will review
research for established intervention approaches that have traditionally been used to treat
attachment trauma, and then attendees will be introduced to the developed Use of the Therapist´s
Self, which is a more recently-established, evidence-based approach. The use of the Therapist
Self is founded on two key components: unconditional, independent presence and nonverbal
right brain-to-right brain emotional interchange processes, which are described in detail. The
developed Use of the Therapist Self in AEDP has been shown to be useful for the work with
Attachment Trauma, especially when the trauma is about deep neglect.

Lynne’s version:
This course is designed to deepen your AEDP skills by emphasizing the utilization of the self of the therapist which has been shown to be efficacious in addressing attachment trauma and the shutdown state or insulated self stemming from profound neglect. We will review research for established intervention approaches that have traditionally been used to treat attachment trauma followed by how the use of the therapist self can be a powerful tool to set change, healing and development in motion.

5 Stars

It is truly wonderful to watch Annika at work. I especially appreciate witnessing her style in which she is able to give clients the space they need while still providing a safe holding space and remaining very connected. After the course, I really felt myself do good work with clients in the area of intra-psychic work! Her choice of video was exquisite and really engaged my right-brain learning.

The beauty and depth of Annika’s work was incredibly moving and inspiring.

I liked the pacing and alternating didactic and experiential days. The course kept my attention and was very stimulating & interesting.

There was so much richness here I would consider taking this again in the future.

There was a lot of well-organized clinically useful material on working with maladaptive state 2 affects that I will find very useful in practice. The course kept my attention and was very stimulating & interesting.

Meet the Presenter

Annika Medbo, Licensed Psychotherapist

Annika Medbo, is an Adjunct faculty member of AEDP™ Institute, Licensed Psychotherapist, Licensed Physiotherapist, AEDP Certified Supervisor and teacher. She has a private practice in Stockholm. Annika´s clinical interests are in trauma and dissociation with a special interest in the use and development of non-verbal processes that can work to enhance and facilitate growth and healing. This interest started before AEDP when Annika was working in psychiatric clinics and striving to meet her patients “beyond diagnosis”, listen to the nonverbal “calls” for connection, rather than focusing on defences and pathology. Her interest for nonverbal processes expanded when she supervised psychotherapy students in Infant Observation at a major Psychotherapy Institute in Stockholm.

More Information

Level 3+ AEDPers are encouraged to participate to refresh AEDP skills and reconnecting with faculty and community.

Advanced Skills Course Overview: Practical in orientation, every Advanced Skills Course focuses on helping you both learn new, Advanced AEDP skills, and cultivate and fine-tune the AEDP skills you already have. Each course will include didactic presentations of theory along with video of actual clinical sessions conducted by AEDP Faculty followed by an afternoon of small group experiential exercises.

In both left-brained and right-brained ways, our Advanced Skills faculty will teach concrete, specific interventions and techniques that will help you with the in-depth practice of AEDP and help you with your more challenging clients.

Instructional Methodology: AEDP skills are introduced with their theoretical foundations and then with illustrations by way of clinical videotapes; skills are then practiced in group experiential exercises. In online courses, exceptionally effective experiential exercises are held in online “breakout rooms.”

Faculty, Experiential Assistants and Clinical Video: These are the hallmarks of all AEDP trainings. In AEDP, we pride ourselves in how thoroughly and deeply we seek to both undo professional aloneness and engage in rigorous clinical teaching.  Our faculty are excellent as academics, clinicians and teachers. Participants deeply appreciate how effectively faculty presenters’ clinical video demonstrates “AEDP in action.” And faculty have skilled accompaniment from a large number of Experiential Assistants – up to and often including one Experiential Assistant for every three participants. Participants rave about the excellent attention and support they receive in this unique learning environment.
