Collaborating with Our Brains' Natural Healing Processes

Even though we are still at the beginning of what we will eventually know about our brains and minds, certain inherent healing processes have made themselves known. We will focus on two of our genetic endowments:

1. From before our first breath until our last, we are reaching toward the most warm, supportive attachments we can imagine.
2. Our brains are always moving in the direction of greater coherence, hindered only by the obstacles--mostly in the form of painful relational experiences--that block the way.

In this presentation we will explore how these two allies in the healing process--active in both our clients and ourselves--can point the way toward a therapeutic process that can truly collaborate with the brain's natural movement toward healing.

This web conference is intermediate instructional level and designed to help clinicians:

1. Identify two genetic endowments that support the healing process;
2. State the two ways in which becoming aware of our own attachment tendencies can help us be more present with our clients;
3. Describe one practice that helps expand our capacity for nonjudgmental awareness;
4. Identify the relationship between brain, mind, and relationships and how they can mutually modify each other.

I am warmed by her heartfulness, compassion, encouragement for therapists to ongoingly engage in their own healing work/growth process.
The content is fascinating, and refreshes + clarifies my approach and appreciation for the privilege and power I have as a therapist to be a supportive, integrating presence for another. - Mary Franz, MA, LMFT
