Healing is so many things. Getting the toxic shame, hate, and other energy transfers from abusers out of our souls and bodies will transform the shame and the pain. It was never yours to hold.

As children, this energy transfer is too big to process. Too big to fight. Too big to even see. We become adults who hate ourselves instead of hating the person who made us hold their pain. Healing teaches us different ways of handing it back and saying, Hell No! This isn’t mine to hold.

“Freeze responses can be some of the most misunderstood and overlooked states in therapy, especially when they show up subtly. In this experiential workshop, you’ll learn how to recognize the physical, emotional, and relational signs of freeze, and how to guide clients toward safe and sustainable mobilization, re-engagement, and reconnection.

Drawing from Somatic Experiencing® principles, we’ll explore concrete, trauma-responsive interventions that help clients release stored survival energy without overwhelm, restore a sense of flow, and expand their capacity for agency. You’ll walk away with immediately applicable tools, a deeper felt understanding of freeze, and more confidence supporting clients through these stuck states.“ - Meggie Twible, LCSW, SEP

For the second in person workshop of Dissociation School, we focus on relational terror and how dissociative processes are created by being in dependent relationships with caretakers that are cruel, neglectful, abusive, shaming, and traumatized themselves. 

We will be diving into Betrayal Blindness and Trauma Bonding, working with survivors of the Malevolent Triad (three distinct yet overlapping negative personality traits: narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism. These traits describe individuals characterized by self-centeredness, lack of empathy, and a tendency to manipulate others for personal gain), and transference, countertransference of the therapist in working with survivors of relational terror.

The core of complex trauma is relational terror, stress, and not being able to feel fully safe with your caretakers.
