Date & Time: 5-day training workshop from Monday June 10th to Friday June 14th 8:30am – 5:30pm
Location: Phoenix Center for Experiential Trauma Therapy, 524 N. Providence Road
Media, PA 19063
Cost – Professional Registration with Directing Practice $1050, Student Registration $775, Registration Without Directing Practice $750 (*Write to us if cost is your only barrier)
*please inquire if you are unavailable to attend the entire week and are interested in 2-3 day registration options
35 CE hours for NBCC, PA LSW/LCSW, LPC, LMFT, and Psychologists | 35 Training hours provided towards experiential and psychodrama certifications. *APA CE Hours are not offered in this workshop
About the Workshop:
This psychodrama directing practice is designed for psychodrama students, practitioners, and trainers-in-training to enhance their directing through a trauma-informed lens. Each participant will have the opportunity to facilitate a group psychodrama and receive feedback from their peers and the trainer. Feedback will be provided based on the psychodrama certification competencies outlined by the ABE, as well as trauma-informed psychodrama considerations. Participants will also have the opportunity to be the protagonist and play auxiliary roles to learn psychodrama from the inside-out.
Psychodrama facilitation competencies emphasized will include a demonstrated understanding of group phases, the warming-up process, spontaneity-creativity theory, role theory, protagonist selection, contracting, scene setting, concretization, doubling, the mirror position, role reversal, soliloquy, directing auxiliaries and the audience, facilitating catharsis safely, facilitating closure/integration, containment, strength-based roles, trauma-informed principles in psychodrama, attending to issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion in psychodrama, subroles of the director, and facilitating the sharing phase of a psychodrama session.
While this is a training workshop, and training will be held as the priority, there will be a multitude of secondary opportunities for personal growth. This workshop is designed for intermediate and advanced psychodrama students and would not be the best workshop for someone who has no prior psychodrama training. Participants are expected to have past experiential/psychodrama experience as a prerequisite for this workshop, as well as a foundational understanding of psychodrama’s methodology.
This workshop will be attractive for anyone seeking to enhance their psychodrama facilitation skills – and especially for professionals with some psychodrama experience seeking to more fully put their learning into action. Professionals warming-up to complete their CP/TEP onsite exams will also find this workshop helpful as the trainer will provide feedback using the same competencies outlined for the CP/TEP onsite exams.
Learning Objectives:

Explain at least two psychodrama interventions
Identify the three phases of a psychodrama group
Describe at least two trauma-informed considerations for psychodrama directing

About this workshop:

Therapists dedicate themselves entirely to their clients, often encountering the boundaries of their attention due to the emotional weight of clients’ traumas. Unresolved emotions and vicarious trauma within therapists themselves can lead to significant challenges, affecting various aspects of their lives. Regularly processing these emotions enables therapists to be more present and relaxed, preventing past experiences from hindering their work and personal relationships. While burnout, vicarious trauma, and countertransference are inevitable in the field, consistent attention to them can mitigate their impact on therapists’ professional and personal lives. This workshop offers therapists strategies to address and process the emotional toll of their work, enhancing their ability to remain present and effective while preventing the negative impacts of burnout, vicarious trauma, and countertransference.

Learning Objectives:

Describe countertransference
Explain the importance of therapists’ self-care
Identify how the professionals past trauma can impact their work today

Please complete our registration form if you are interested in attending this webinar.

About this workshop:

Grief and loss are a somewhat universal experience in our lives. What is not so universal is the process we undergo in navigating life after loss. Grief is a process that is unique to the individual, and no definitive timeline exists for this process. Grief is not something one ‘gets over’, though it is something we can successfully get through. Many times, grief experiences have (ripple) effects that are seen and unseen in the midst of powerful emotion and the reorganization that occurs in experiencing death. By looking at the topic of loss, participants can gain comfort and confidence in intervention techniques, complete with a foundational understanding of the stages of grief, and how to attend to clients experiencing a range of emotions.

Learning Objectives:

Explain the process of grief
Recognize the balance between emotional pain and growth opportunity in grief
Differentiate between societal norms and stigma surrounding grief relating to the individual’s experiences

Full Weekend Option: 20 CE Hours for NBCC, and PA social workers, counselors, MFTs, & Psychologists | 20 training hours provided towards experiential and psychodrama certifications.
About the Workshop:
In this workshop, we will use action methods to explore attachment theory, teachings from interpersonal neurobiology, and learn sociometry/psychodramatic tools for exploring relationships. The self develops and exists in relationship to others. As humans, we are social animals and our neurobiological wiring promotes attachment, connection, group membership, and community belonging. As mental health professionals, relationships are the vehicle from which we work with our clients – and often the crux of the client’s concerns. Jacob L. Moreno, the founder of sociometry and psychodrama, was one of the first to challenge the medical model and suggest that mental illness is a product of relationships, groups, and society. Using Moreno’s sociometric system we will explore attachment styles, social atoms, and sociodynamics while employing psychodrama to promote psychosocial change.

Learning Objectives:
1). Identify four different attachment styles and their impact on behavior in groups and therapy.
2). Explain the social atom theory
3). Identify three sociometric tools to explore group relationships

About this workshop:

Whether you are a caregiver, or you work with folks who are, we invite you to join us as we explore all aspects related to caretaking alongside our roles as therapists and mental health professionals. In fact, our jobs in and of themselves include a component of caretaking as we support our clients in various ways. Taking on the role of caregiver to a loved one unleashes a multitude of emotions, challenges, and concerns. Many caregivers are faced with juggling dual roles, parenting responsibilities, balancing a social life, nurturing relationships with a partner, finding time for self-care, and maintaining a professional caseload of clients – all at the same time.
This webinar will provide an overview of practical steps aimed at reducing caregiver burnout, learning how to approach essential conversations, and navigating difficult decisions. In addition, ways to find support and manage the mental and physical toll associated with caregiving will be outlined.

Learning Objectives:

Identify and name common challenges, emotions, and behaviors for folks in caregiver roles.
Recognize the risk factors and signs associated with burnout, fatigue, relational stress, and financial concerns for caregivers.
List ways to tap into your own supportive network and community.

Free Webinar - From Trauma to Transformation: Supporting Transgender Clients During Their Transition
2024-12-18 12:00 - 13:00
Presented by: Chris Klem, MS (he/him)

Date: Wednesday, December 18, 2024 from 12:00 pm- 1:00 PM (EST)

About This Webinar:
A large percentage of transgender individuals decide to transition, (medically, socially or legally) at some point in their lives. Many mental health professionals aim to provide affirming care, but few of us have the lived experience that can really help us navigate or anticipate potential traumas faced during the transition process. As trauma-informed professionals, we can reduce the risk of re-traumatization by understanding transition timelines, barriers to receiving care, and anticipating common adverse experiences. In this hour-long webinar, we will introduce these concepts and walk away with a deeper understanding of how to begin supporting transgender clients and implement techniques to foster empathy and create affirming practices.
Learning Objectives

Describe common transition challenges
Identify challenges and traumas that can occur during the transition process
Understand how past traumatic medical/mental health experiences can shape future client interactions

Chris Klem, he/him is an educator who is passionate about creating safer spaces for individuals to live as their authentic selves. As a trans man, Chris has found a way to blend his professional training background with his personal experience to create trainings for folks seeking to increase their LGBTQIA+ competency. Chris has provided trainings for social workers, advocates, therapists, and crisis counselors on gender and sexuality with a focus on gender affirming care. Having navigated the transition process himself, he is able to incorporate personal stories, real-life examples and draws from various research and other professional sources. Chris will also be offering individual coaching in January 2025 and assists with The UNITY Group: An LGBTQIA+ Healing Space with Sarah Jayne Oltz.

*please inquire if you are unavailable to attend the entire week and are interested in 2-3 day registration options
35 CE hours for NBCC, PA LSW/LCSW, LPC, LMFT, and Psychologists | 35 Training hours provided towards experiential and psychodrama certifications. *APA CE Hours are not offered in this workshop
About the Workshop:
This psychodrama directing practice is designed for psychodrama students, practitioners, and trainers-in-training to enhance their directing through a trauma-informed lens. Participants will have the opportunity to facilitate a group psychodrama and receive feedback from their peers and the trainer. Feedback will be provided based on the psychodrama certification competencies outlined by the ABE, as well as trauma-informed psychodrama considerations. Each participant will also have the opportunity to be the protagonist and play auxiliary roles to learn psychodrama from the inside out.
Psychodrama facilitation competencies emphasized will include a demonstrated understanding of group phases, the warming-up process, spontaneity-creativity theory, role theory, protagonist selection, contracting, scene setting, concretization, doubling, the mirror position, role reversal, soliloquy, directing auxiliaries and the audience, facilitating catharsis safely, facilitating closure/integration, containment, strength-based roles, trauma-informed principles in psychodrama, attending to issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion in psychodrama, sub-roles of the director, and facilitating the sharing phase of a psychodrama session.
While this is a training workshop, and training will be held as the priority, there will be a multitude of secondary opportunities for personal growth. This workshop is designed for intermediate and advanced psychodrama students and would not be the best for someone with no prior psychodrama training. Participants are expected to have past experiential/psychodrama experience as a prerequisite for this workshop, as well as a foundational understanding of psychodrama’s methodology. This workshop will be attractive for anyone seeking to enhance their psychodrama facilitation skills – and especially for professionals with some psychodrama experience seeking to put their learning into action more fully. Professionals warming up to complete their CP/TEP onsite exams will also find this workshop helpful as the trainer will provide feedback using the same competencies outlined for the CP/TEP onsite exams.
Learning Objectives:
-Explain at least two psychodrama interventions
-Identify the three phases of a psychodrama group
-Describe at least two trauma-informed considerations for psychodrama directing

Free Webinar: Looking Beyond Traditional Stage Models of Grief
2025-01-15 12:00 - 13:00 | On Zoom
Presented by: Lincoln Blackwell, MA, NCC, CGP, CTP (he/him)

Date: Wednesday, January 15, 2025 from 12:00 pm- 1:00 PM (EST)
Location: Virtual/Zoom
1 CE for NBCC, PA LSW/LCSW, LPC, LMFT, and Psychologists.
Cost: FREE

About This Webinar:
Grief and loss are a somewhat universal experience in our lives. What is not so universal is the process we undergo in navigating life after loss. Grief is a process that is unique to the individual, and no definitive timeline exists for this process. Grief is not something one ‘gets over’, though it is something we can successfully get through. Many times, grief has (ripple) effects that are conscious and unconscious, in the midst of powerful emotion and the uncertainty that occurs in experiencing death. By taking a fresh look at the topic of loss, participants can gain comfort and confidence in furthering intervention techniques, complete with a foundational understanding of grief beyond the surface stages, and how to attend to clients experiencing a range of emotions, thoughts, reactions, and responses.
Learning Objectives

Acknowledge and explain the uniqueness of each individual’s response to grief
Recognize the need for awareness in personal responses/attitudes/opinions that arise from the topic of grief
Explain theoretical considerations and empirical approaches beyond stage models of grief, as a means to best assess individual client needs

In this context, trauma-informed principles will be presented with their utility in therapy, organizations/systems, supervision, education, and leadership. Experiential methods will be employed to promote critical reflection on participants’ relationships to each of the trauma-informed principles in their own work. Content from the presenter’s book on trauma-informed care will be included.

Suicide Prevention and Trauma Therapy
Friday January 31st, 2025 1pm- 2pm
1 CE Hour for PA social workers, counselors, NBCC, marriage and family therapists and psychologists.
*This workshop satisfies the suicide prevention CE requirement for PA license board renewals
Presented by Dr. Scott Giacomucci, DSW, LCSW, BCD, CGP, FAAETS, TEP
Zoom Workshop
Cost: $50 for professionals; $30 students; (write to us if cost is a barrier)
This workshop focuses on the importance of thoughtful suicide assessment throughout the process of trauma treatment. Suicide and adversity are closely related. Trauma survivors have much higher rates of suicide attempts than others. Suicide is often an attempt to escape the pain and suffering associated with past adversity and current traumatic stress or grief. The process of engaging clients in trauma therapy while continuously assessing for suicidality is delicate but essential. As we assist clients in addressing the wounds of past adversity, we must be thoughtful in helping to keep them within their window of tolerance. This workshop will explore this balance, draw connections between trauma and suicide, and discuss the basics of suicide assessment.
Learning Objectives:

Differentiate between suicidal thoughts, plans, and intentions
Describe one connection between trauma and suicide
Explain how the process of engaging in trauma therapy could increase or decrease suicidality

Zoom Workshop

This workshop focuses on the importance of thoughtful suicide assessment throughout the process of trauma treatment. Suicide and adversity are closely related. Trauma survivors have much higher rates of suicide attempts than others. Suicide is often an attempt to escape the pain and suffering associated with past adversity and current traumatic stress or grief. The process of engaging clients in trauma therapy while continuously assessing for suicidality is delicate but essential. As we assist clients in addressing the wounds of past adversity, we must be thoughtful in helping to keep them within their window of tolerance. This workshop will explore this balance, draw connections between trauma and suicide, and discuss the basics of suicide assessment.
Learning Objectives:

Differentiate between suicidal thoughts, plans, and intentions
Describe one connection between trauma and suicide
Explain how the process of engaging in trauma therapy could increase or decrease suicidality
