As a member of the EMDR Special Interest Group of the APS - we am excited to be sharing this opportunity to learn with Sarah Schubert in a 1.5 hour webinar on 19th November (6pm - 7:30pm AEST).

Join Sarah for a reflective exploration of how therapeutic work with children healing from trauma can enhance your clinical work with adults. In child therapy, we witness the innate healing wisdom of the child — who can only heal within the coregulation of safe, trusting relationships and connection to self-identity. Trauma therapy with children requires working flexibly, creatively, somatically with what emerges; conceptualisation requires hearing the implicit, preverbal trauma narratives through a felt sense of our own nervous system; and reprocessing implicit and explicit memory of the mind and body through the language of fun, movement, art and play.

Similarly, as adults, our trauma stories often lie beneath conscious awareness, held in the body, and beyond words. Adults too carry stories of life experiences that leave them stuck in protective, defensive states, disconnected from themselves, and with a fractured sense of identity that may make healing feel impossible. This presentation invites you to reflect on the wisdom our young clients offer—reminding us that healing is always innately possible when the therapeutic space is safe, attuned, creatively, and compassionately held.

This webinar is suitable for those trained and not trained in EMDR.
Sarah Schubert is a clinical psychologist who specialises in the treatment of trauma and the comorbidities this brings across the lifespan. Sarah is published in the area of EMDR and trauma therapy, and she has contributed to the International Society of Traumatic Stress Studies (ISTSS, 2020) international guidelines on PTSD.
Tickets are available from $15 -$70.

💛 World Su***de Prevention Day – 10 September 💛

Today reminds us that su***de is preventable and that hope is always possible. Every conversation, every act of kindness, and every moment of listening can make a difference.

Today highlights the power we all have to support those around us. Talking openly about mental health and su***de helps break the stigma and shows people they are not alone.

✨ You can help by:
✔ Checking in with a friend, colleague, or loved one.
✔ Listening with compassion and without judgment.
✔ Encouraging help-seeking and reminding others that support is available.

💬 Starting a conversation could save a life.

🌾 In rural and remote areas, the risk of su***de is even higher due to isolation, limited access to services, and the pressures of farming, drought, and economic hardship. That’s why checking in with your mates, neighbours, and community members is so important. A simple conversation can save a life.

📞 If you or someone you know is struggling:
Australia: Lifeline 13 11 14 | Beyond Blue 1300 22 4636
Or talk to your General Practitioner or Psychologist.

Together, we can create hope, prevent su***de, and build a community where reaching out is safe and supported. 🕊️💛
