Transformance Journal: Training Type: Advanced Skills

ES2 Boston 2016 – 2017

AEDP Advanced Skills (ES2) is for practitioners who have completed AEDP Essential Skills (ES1). Practical in its orientation, this course focuses on helping you both (i) learn new advanced AEDP skills, and (ii) cultivate and fine-tune the AEDP skills you already have. In both left-brained and right-brained ways, we aim to teach you specific interventions and techniques that are concrete and specific that will help you with your more challenging clients. While reviewing and deepening your AEDP essential skills throughout, the Advanced Training will teach the different advanced skill sets necessary to the in-depth practice of AEDP, with theoretical foundations and clinical videotapes, as well as with group experiential exercises.

How-To, Videotapes and Experiential Learning

The AEDP Advanced Skills course aims to help you to really “work it,” AEDP style, while troubleshooting what stands in the way of your doing so. This course focuses on learning new advanced skills and reviewing, deepening and improving basic AEDP skills. You will develop more of a felt sense of how to entrain the quintessentially AEDP practice of “stay with it and stay with me” and how to keep the transformational process unfolding in all states. Experienced AEDP practitioners will closely assist with the experiential practices.

AEDP Institute Senior Faculty SueAnne Piliero, Ph.D. will helm the Advanced Skills course. As course leader, SueAnne will lead off teaching Module 1, and thereafter will co-teach the remaining modules with other AEDP Institute Faculty members.

Please note: Essential Skills (ES1) is a prerequisite for this course.

The upcoming New York Advanced Essential Skills course will be led by Natasha Prenn, LCSW, along with guest faculty from the AEDP Institute. The course takes place at Friends In Deed in New York City over five weekends and is a great hands-on experience for anyone furthering their AEDP training.

Please note: Essential Skills is a prerequisite for this course.

Module 1: Seven Channels of Experience
Friday, October 24th- Sunday, October 26, 2014
with David Mars, PhD
Seven Channels of Experience

In this first module we will be delving into deepening affective somatic experience beyond a focus on emotion. We will explore the question, “How do we empathize with a feeling that has not been expressed?”

We will experience how to deepen the patient’s and our own Seven Channels of Experience (energetic, sensation, emotional, imaginal, visual, auditory, movement) to bypass defense and move into a broader band, bottom-up core affect. We will experience together through lively exchanges and vivid videotaped clips how to expand our connection to our own channels. We will see, hear, sense, move into, energetically track, open and amplify our imaginal channel to “find” and “bridge to” the channels our patient already occupies. We will learn how to select for and deepen this practice of whole body attunement. In your experiential practice sessions you will discover how you bring your own gifts and former defensively excluded blocks to bear fresh, real and healing fruit.

Module 2: Advanced Defense Work
Friday, December 5th-Sunday, December 7th, 2014
Guest Faculty: Steve Shapiro, PhD
Advanced Defense Work: How to Help Patients who do Not Take Easily to AEDP

The focus of the module will be advanced defense work, learning to restructure mechanisms such as denial, splitting, projection, and dissociation. Specific techniques will be reviewed such as: transforming resistance, regulating anxiety and other inhibitory forces; separating anxiety and defense from expressive core affective phenomena; encouraging a new and corrective experience; utilizing the therapy relationship and relational interventions to access underlying healing resources and their associated adaptive action tendencies, restructuring defenses.

Module 3: Working with Trauma & Dissociation
Friday, February 6th- Sunday, February 8th, 2015
Guest Faculty: Kari Gleiser, PhD
Transforming Trauma, Dissociation and Fragmentation with AEDP

Complex attachment trauma can sever and/or inhibit the formation of deep and lasting bonds between self and other, self and self, self and emotion. In this module, we will explore, in depth, the explicit use of relational interventions to build safety and containment, dyadic regulation of intense traumatic affects of fear, shame, and overwhelm, as well as reconnection to healing emotion via processing of core affect – all in the context of patients with severe trauma histories and dissociative disorders. We will also view these cases through the lens of intra-relational interventions, which place dual emphasis on internal attachment relationships formed through affective interchanges between distinct parts of the self, and on the intrinsic healing power of new emotional experiences. Parallel relational processes unfolding simultaneously within the external dyad (i.e., therapist/client) and internal dyads (i.e., client/dissociated ego-states) facilitates and accelerates the internalization of secure attachment dynamics.

Module 4: Transforming Pathogenic Affects
Friday, April 17th- Sunday, April 19th, 2015
Guest Faculty: Jerry Lamagna, LCSW
Working with Pathogenic Affects

“Pathogenic affects,” overwhelming states of distress, shame, guilt, anxiety and existential loneliness will be the focus. Learn to help patients to manage their emotions and gain important insight into the nature of their suffering. Learn to detect where such unwanted, overwhelming experiences can provide “compost” for the transformation process. Interventions involving somatic grounding, explicit relational engagement and empathic reflection and intra-relational (ego state) work with resonance and compassion will be demonstrated as skillful means for fostering self- building, self-regulation and integration.

Module 5: Advanced Metaprocessing
Friday, May 15th- Sunday, May 17th, 2015
Guest Faculty: Benjamin Lipton, LCSW
Advanced Metaprocessing

Reflecting upon the experience of change for the better is in and of itself a transformational process that fosters resilience and flourishing. In this module, we will delve into AEDP’s State 3 (metaprocessing) and State 4 (core state) phenomenology to ensure that you have a clear and detailed roadmap for the unfolding and thorough processing of transformational phenomena as they emerge in the practice of AEDP. Didactic and video examples will provide you with a roadmap to help you both sharpen and expand your technique for both “Big M” and “Small m” meta-therapeutic processing in the service of helping you and your patients to thrive.
