Transforming Trauma and Reclaiming the Core Self Through Fierce Love:  An Introduction to CSRT (Part I)
Saturday | May 6, 2023
1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
(1.5 CEs)


Workshop Description:

Working with trauma and attachment wounds requires not just learning the theory or techniques; it requires boldly bringing ourselves into the healing equation. Core Self Reclamation Therapy (CSRT) is a relationally bold new clinical model devoted to undoing the structure of the Wounded Self so that the Core Self can be reclaimed. The CSRT Therapist targets the entrenched defenses and toxic shame states created by distorted mirroring and other traumatic experiences, standing in on behalf of the patient’s Core Self to guide our patients back to their birthright of love. 

In this workshop, we will explore how to enhance and accelerate healing through specific interventions that target the deepest intrapsychic wounds.  


Learning Objectives:

The participants will be able to:

  1. Explain the active Fierce Love therapeutic stance .
  2. Divine Micro-track and micro-attune.
  3. Apply the Present-Day Self to do the work of intrapsychic healing through parts work.
