PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
Children with complex trauma must receive effective treatment early in their lives before their symptoms reach an apex necessitating hospitalizations, residential placements, or ruptured home placements. Dissociation is one of the domains in children with complex trauma which has a profound influence on the other domains, i.e. attachment, affect regulation, behavior control, and cognition. Yet, dissociation is often misunderstood or unrecognized in its impact on traumatized children who have an array of more commonly recognized symptoms that become the diagnostic focus. Dissociation is comprised of convoluting symptoms that are a constellation of indicators. Consequently, specialized interventions are required for successful treatment that addresses such disturbing and disruptive symptoms that are encapsulated in dissociation. These specialized interventions with children with dissociation can be incorporated into treatment modalities, such as play therapy, family therapy, and EMDR.
This workshop will describe core symptoms of dissociation, and how these symptoms can overlap with other more commonly recognized symptoms and disorders. Dissociative checklists will be presented, including a new comprehensive checklist for caregivers and children, Checklist of Indicators of Trauma & Dissociation with Youth, CIT-DY, Waters, F. S. The use of a specialized doll, ©Allmee, as well as other play therapy and expressive therapy tools will demonstrate how to help children describe their inner life of self-states and how to lay the groundwork for treatment and reprocessing of traumatic experiences.
Case examples of children with significant dissociation will highlight the full treatment process utilizing EMDR, family and play therapy as we move through assessment, extended preparation and resourcing to a titrated approach to processing and integration. Participants will be able to practice specialized interventions and treatment approaches for youth who have dissociation.
