Adult Attachment and the Adult Attachment Interview with Mary Main and Erik Hesse
Adult Attachment and the Adult Attachment Interview with Mary Main and Erik Hesse

In this 3-day program Drs. Mary Main and Erik Hesse explore the ways in which the Adult Attachment Interview is conducted and utilized in conjunction with clinical practice. Main & Hesse describe ways in which – using transcripts of this interview -- an individual’s state of mind respecting attachment can be useful to clinicians whether or not it is transcribed and formally assessed.   They also review the current state of the field, including recent studies involving gene-environment interactions and attachment.

Emotion, Mindfulness and Movement: From Pain to TransformationOnline Testing Available
Emotion, Mindfulness and Movement: From Pain to Transformation

 This one-day immersion recorded in April 2009 gives clinicians access to new directions in treatment.  It is an adjunct to current training and supervision of various treatment approaches.

This workshop emphasizes techniques that help resolve the painful emotions, cognitive distortions and intimacy issues associated with attachment failure, and clarifying body-oriented techniques that mitigate trauma-related dysregulation. Through the lens of attachment theory, Dr. Ogden demonstrates movement interventions and the use of "directed mindfulness" techniques to expand the patient's window of affect tolerance.

Pat Ogden is the founder and director of the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute,  in Colorado, co-founder of the Hakomi Institute, has served on the faculty of The Naropa University since 1985.  For 35 years she has pioneered the development of somatic psychotherapy for work with individuals and groups, and specializes on treatment of trauma and attachment.

OBJECTIVES

 1.     Explain the nature of body-based survival responses.

 2.     Recognize and discuss the effects on the ANS (autonomic nervous system) when intense emotions are avoided.

 3.     Illustrate treatment methods that incorporate principles of sensorimotor psychotherapy and mindfulness.

 4.     Recognize specific steps in treatment of contract, access, process, transformation and integration.

Mindful Solutions for Success and Stress Reduction at Work
Mindful Solutions for Success and Stress Reduction at Work

There is no doubt about it, today's business is a round-the-clock atmosphere. We are hounded with external pressures, overwhelmed with information overload, asked to deliver more with less, work longer hours, and have less personal time for renewal activities. What is the result? Self-inflicted attention deficit disorder, exhaustion, lack of focus, reduced health, and burnout. This leads to lower job satisfaction, morale, and productivity. Hardly the results we want.

 

What more and more business leaders are finding is instead of doing more things faster, you need to learn how to prioritize your attention and do the most important things really well. That is the key to being effective in today's New Business World. So the issue isn't how to manage your time, the issue is more about managing your attention with the most important things in work and life.

 

This program provides tools to effectively identify and focus on the most important things right now, reduce your stress levels, and become more successful in your everyday life.

 

In bringing mindfulness into your everyday life you will eventually be able to listen better, anticipate and solve problems, see solutions, have more confidence and energy, and be happier and more successful at work with a sense of balance and focus. Ultimately, this will give you the ability to do the work you want to do and live the life you want to live. 

 

Program Objectives:

• Increase awareness of ineffective habitual patterns that you unknowingly engage in

• Gain a renewed sense of control and choice in the present moment

• Be able to break the cycles of distraction and wasted time that too often lead to overwhelm and stress.

Wholeness of Mind, Brain, Body and Human-Relatedness (recorded March 5-7, 2010)
Wholeness of Mind, Brain, Body and Human-Relatedness (recorded March 5-7, 2010)

We are increasingly aware of the significance of affective processes in essential human survival functions.  A number of scientific and clinical research studies have been converging on the centrality of affect, including unconscious and dissociated affect.  These are now becoming a central focus of psychotherapeutic work. 

This program is composed of pioneers and essential contributors to the ongoing paradigm shift. All are authors who have written extensively on the themes of the relationship between early development, affect regulation, relational trauma, psychopathogenesis, and psychodynamic models of the treatment of both mind and body, especially with the more severe personality disorders. The conference faculty includes infant researchers, neuroscientists, psychoanalysts, and trauma investigators, and yet all are experienced clinicians, each with decades of psychotherapy practice.

All of the presentations focus on the practical applications of ongoing neurobiological and developmental studies, groundbreaking clinical explorations, and interdisciplinary theoretical modeling of survival-related affective and self- regulatory phenomena. Presenters discuss various aspects of their current work, as well as dialogue between other presenters and the audience.
