Description de l’atelier

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (TF-CBT) is well established (alongside EMDR) as a first-line treatment of PTSD. Prolonged exposure, a well-studied form and core component of TF-CBT, often leads to dramatic reductions in PTSD symptoms. A risk for successful dissemination and implementation however, is that exposure may be experienced as aversive (and thus as something to be avoided) by patients and – importantly and worryingly – therapists as well. In this workshop we will promote the dissemination of TF-CBT in general, to overcome own assumptions about imagery exposure as a treatment and to learn about imagery rescripting therapy as less aversive variant of conventional exposure in particular.  More specifically, the proposed workshop has the following aims and structure:

Morning: A general foundation in imaginal exposure is laid as a basis for the more specific technique in the afternoon. This includes intruction and practice on the basis of a case-example in providing psycho-education on PTSD, providing a treatment rationale for imaginal exposure in particular, setting the right expectations, and conducting actual imaginal exposure in role plays.

Afternoon: Imagery rescripting therapy is introduced as a psychological intervention which aims to ‘rescript’ a traumatic memory. It is usually incorporated into a CBT approach, either supporting other CBT interventions or as a stand alone treatment (Grunert, Weiss, Smucker, en Christianson (2008). It works by imaginally rescripting one or more traumatic memories in ways that better meet the needs of the patient, thereby reducing the distress associated with these memories

Why imaginal rescripting therapy (Arntz, 2012; Hackmann, 2011)?

• To help people to process + master their traumatic memories
• Care, nurturance and support is provided to the client in a way that was blocked as a child
• To gain more self-confidence, develop more control in everyday life
• Effective in treating intrusive images in PTSD

In this workshop we promise:

• Theory and (much!) practice
• A lot of examples and exercises
