Dealing effectively with challenges and crises is the core of resilience and well-being.  Helping clients develop flexible and adaptive strategies for coping with everyday disappointments, existential dread, and extraordinary disasters is the heart of the therapeutic process. Helping clients harness the brain’s processes of change to rewire coping strategies that are defensive, dysfunctional, and blocking of growth, and to encode new more flexible patterns of response, is the focus of this workshop.

When overwhelming anxiety or loss leaves you/your clients feeling stressed or worse – traumatized – there’s a way not only to help them bounce back, but bounce forward. People can change old coping patterns, shift perspectives, and discover new possibilities.  Psychotherapy Networker Symposium, Washington, D.C.  online.  

People learn and grow from meeting the challenges and adversities of the human condition when they have enough support, resources, and skills to do so. Clinicians will learn specific interventions that will help rewire clients’ neural circuitries so that they are better equipped to take growth-enhancing risks that not only enable them to survive hard times but to thrive in their midst. Registration information available soon.

Resilience is always needed. Whether coping with small annoyances or full-blown disasters, our capacity to “bounce back” – and learn from – any crisis or distress is essential to our ease of mind and well-being. Join resilience expert Linda Graham in exploring the five intelligences that allow you to develop the resilience mindset that transforms any adversity into learning and growth, and to learn that we can.

This three-part webinar series will provide practitioners with the very practical tools they need to help clients (and themselves!) strengthen the capacities to cope with any level of adversity – from a series of small annoyances to the troubles and tragedies that break their hearts and sometimes break their spirits, to the utter catastrophes that change their lives forever. Recovering those capacities, innate in the brain and underlying any theoretical orientation or therapeutic modality, is the heart of the therapeutic…

Resilience, the capacities to cope quickly, skillfully, and effectively with any stress or adversity, is especially needed in times of sudden transition and upheaval, when what we thought was solid ground turns to quicksand under our feet.

Clinicians will learn practical tools to help clients re-frame the stress and tragedies of their lives as AFGO’s – another frickin’ growth opportunity. Learning to view a challenge or a crisis as a cue to apply their skills and strategies to “bouncing forward.,” and to deepen their trust that they can.

Dealing effectively with the challenges and crises of life is at the core of our resilience and well-being. Whether coping with small annoyances or full-blown disasters, you can learn to navigate any storm through a step-by-step process that strengthens the response flexibility—innate in your brain and your being—that you need to find calm, clarity, and courage in any adversity.
