Attachment & Interpersonal Trauma through the Schema Lens: Incorporating Sociocultural Factors into Formulation and Treatment
March 22 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm
While most mental health practitioners are adept at spotting attachment or interpersonal factors of trauma, pervasive social factors are often overlooked. Therapy models such as CBT, Interpersonal Psychotherapy and Schema Therapy tend to provide little guidance on how to use biopsychosocial models to tailor treatment.
In this meeting, participants will:
- Gain an overview of intersections of marginalisation, oppression and Schema Therapy
- Learn about adapting Schema Therapy to work with Racialised Trauma
- Be introduced to the Social Critic Mode
- Identify social determinants for clients presenting with trauma associated with attachment/interpersonal distress
- Increase awareness of the social factors that may impact on your client’s mental health
- Be introduced to adjusting the treatment model to account for the social determinants of mental health
Come Prepared to Engage: Ask Me Anything
In the spirit of Ask Me Anything, this meeting will involve a brief presentation followed by a discussion wherein participants will be able to put questions to the presenters for discussion.
This event is a prelude to the workshop by the SchemX Collective (https://www.schemxcollective.org/ ) which focuses on adapting Schema Therapy to the contexts in which clients present.
