Fall 2024 Specialized Art Therapy Group Consult Supervision Series

Applying a

Somatic-Polyvgal Approach

(trauma informed)

to Art Therapy Practices

What you can expect:

You will receive practical resources and tools that will be shared with you such as links, podcasts and books. We will also practice at least one tool that you can use with clients. There will be focussed time dedicated to each attendees' case question(s). Please come prepared with a specific case question. There will also be time for group discussion and the sharing of our collective wisdom and experience.

We will specifically be exploring how to integrate somatic-nervous system aware approaches to art therapy interventions and what it means to be a trauma informed practitioner.

Session 1 (Oct 9):

Focus will be on ADULT clients

(individual and group work).

Session 2 (Oct 30):

Focus will be on

CHILDREN & YOUTH clients

(individual and group work)

I have found for myself that it has not always been easy finding spaces to explore the nuances that show up in applying and integrating somatic approaches with children and youth. I’m excited to be holding space for all the questions and complexity that can take place as we support developing nervous systems in art and play.

BONUS Session 3 (Nov 27):

This is a special arts based experiential

session where you will have the opportunity to explore the ways that your own nervous system (survival parts) may be showing up in sessions. This will be a deshaming space as safety is created to be with our own nervous systems and to support, nurture and become more aware of how this may be playing out with clients in sessions. There will be time for exploring specific cases or areas where you notice this type of complexity showing up.
