Manage episode 377539808 series 3480422
Welcome to another exciting episode of the Future Parent Template Podcast! In the previous episode, I discussed the conference table technique, its benefits, and how to use it in EMDR intensives. Today, we will take a closer look at the dissociative table technique. The dissociative table technique is not only one of my personal favorites but also a valuable tool for working with dissociative clients.
Join me as I share my insights and expertise on working with the dissociative table technique during EMDR intensives. I discuss how it can empower your clients to gain awareness of their alters, facilitate interaction, and build a consistent sense of self without forcing integration or fusion. I'll also provide practical tips on implementing this technique with your dissociative clients, including the importance of psychoeducation, grounding, and establishing safety. Tune in now and unlock the potential of the dissociative table technique and discover how it can help you support your clients in new ways!
