Making Sense of Self-Harm

Sat | March 12 | 10am-2:30pm EST | 4 CE's | Ellen Blaufox, LCSW-R

Class Description

The act of self-harm is often misunderstood by clients, their loved ones and treatment providers. By understanding how trauma and chronic stress affect one's physiological and cognitive functioning; we can better understand the emotional pain our clients are trying to communicate when they self-harm. This highly interactive Workshop employs didactic, as well as experiential learning. The use of media, arts & culture are also used for instructional purposes to allow for different participant learning styles and creativity. The Workshop provides a rare opportunity for clinicians and helping professionals to discuss the impact of counter-transference and compassion fatigue on treatment. In this Workshop, participants will learn Learning Objectives 1. Participants actively engage in learning and practicing concrete treatment interventions that interrupt the self-harm cycle. 2. Participants will learn to reframe their client’s self-harm as an effort to avoid experiencing or re- experiencing trauma and chronic stress. 3. Clinician counter-transference will be discussed, as will strategies for reducing it’s impact on the re-enactment of the trauma cycle in therapy. Ellen Blaufox has accumulated more than twenty years of both clinical and practical experience as a Therapist, Executive Coach, and Professional Speaker. She knows that the key ingredients in a therapeutic relationship are safety, transparency, and, most importantly, optimism and hope. Ellen's clinical know-how traverses the human lifespan with particular expertise in the transitions we go through as we move into adulthood, across various milestones (identity, career, family), and into aging. Ellen will guide you as you shift out of that "stuck" feeling that comes from unconscious habits, patterns, and negative thinking. She empowers you to make the positive changes in your life that you desire by promoting health and wellbeing. Ellen's approach to therapy is collaborative and solution-focused. She utilizes proven, evidence-based methods in various modalities (individual, family, and group). She has particular expertise with survivors of complex stress, trauma, and issues related to social injustice. Her understanding of trauma is particularly helpful for those struggling with the challenges associated with the current global pandemic.
