Day One – November 25, 2024
WORKSHOP #1: Meaning-Based Therapy in the Treatment of Trauma, Addiction, Anxiety & Depression
Presented by
Carissa Muth, Psy.D., CCC, R.Psych
8:30am - 11:45am November 25, 2024
COURSE DESCRIPTION
What is it that makes life worth living? People seek help because they feel stuck. Stuck by their symptoms, stuck by tough relationships, or stuck by seemingly impossible situations. While it is often easier as professionals to work with those in the “action” phase who seem ready to change, most often the individuals that come for help find themselves at a different stage of understanding what needs to change in their lives. Sometimes this results in working with those that seem to repeat the same negative choices or thought patterns over and over again. These individuals are prone to be labelled as non-compliant or not motivated. But what if it was something else? Rooted in humanistic and Rogerian values, in this 6-hour workshop, Dr. Carissa Muth will provide participants with a strength based, meaning centred framework for understanding and working with a myriad of clients, including those struggling with trauma, addiction, anxiety, and depression who are seemingly treatment resistant. Integrating interventions from CBT, DBT, and Narrative Therapy, Dr. Muth will provide specific interventions that participants can immediately utilize. As psychologist Rollo May states, “There is no such thing as truth or reality for a living human being except as he participates in it, is conscious of it, has some relationship to it.” For those struggling with trauma, depression, anxiety, or addictions, this question of “why?” is at the core of the pursuit of recovery.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Conceptualize presenting issues from an integrated biological, psychological, social, and meaning perspective
- Understand how a client creates their reality and how to work within their reality to create change
- Develop an understanding of resistance in treatment and a framework for moving a client forward
- Obtain techniques for helping others discover their meaning and purpose and utilize this to help “stuck” individuals
- Identify the impact of meaning on recovery from trauma, addiction, anxiety and depression
- Develop techniques for addressing trauma symptoms from an integrated, staged approach including exposure therapy and meaning based interventions

WORKSHOP #2: Stress and Trauma: An Attachment-Based Perspective
Presented by
Gordon Neufeld, Ph.D.
8:30am - 11:45am November 25, 2024
COURSE DESCRIPTION
Fresh insights from the sciences of development, emotion and attachment shed light on the hidden wisdom of the stress response, the essence of trauma, and the pivotal role of both attachment and emotion in etiology and recovery. What is also revealed in putting the pieces together is a common denominator that cuts across syndromes and diagnoses and informs intervention. While the material is presented with clinicians in mind, this model of stress and trauma applies across all ages and venues, including private practice, treatment programs, as well as personal healing and recovery. This model also has significant implications for the prevention, recognition and treatment of distressed children and youth, whether via the school, the family, special programs or direct treatment.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- To appreciate the true purpose and wisdom of the stress response
- To understand trauma as a stuck stress response
- To correctly identify the primary indicators of a stuck stress response
- To appreciate the necessary and sufficient conditions for the stress response to be resolved
- To identify natural and intuitive interventions that can be universally applied
- To distill to the essence the help that is needed to reverse a stuck stress response
- To understand the role of emotional playgrounds in the recovery of the resilience response
Dr. Gordon Neufeld is a Vancouver-based developmental psychologist with over 50 years of experience with children and youth and those responsible for them. A foremost authority on child development, Dr. Neufeld is an international speaker, a bestselling author (Hold On To…
