Polyvagal Theory offers insight into the central role that our autonomic nervous system, and our body-mind, plays in our well-being. This central role is crucial to work with survivors of trauma. Working with survivors requires clinicians’ ability to foster reciprocity in the clinical relationship, and to co-regulate with their clients.
These processes are rooted in our somatic self-regulation capacities. Polyvagal-informed psychotherapies support clients to restore a sense of connection, meaning and belonging.
Objectives:
- Discuss the basic principles of Polyvagal-informed Psychotherapies.
- Identify the 3-5 polyvagal-informed somatic strategies to enhance self and co-regulation capacities in self and clients.
- Explain both primary and blended states and learn 3-5 somatic practices to promote state-shifting with clients.
- Promote reciprocity in the therapeutic alliance.
