MAIN SPEAKER

CURT THOMPSON Curt Thompson, M.D., is a psychiatrist in private practice in Falls Church, Virginia and the founder of Being Known, LLC, an organization that develops resources to educate and train leaders about the intersection between interpersonal neurobiology, Christian spiritual formation, and vocational creativity. He is the author of Anatomy of the Soul and The Soul of Shame: Retelling the Stories We Believe About Ourselves. He graduated from Wright State University School of Medicine, completed his psychiatric residency at Temple University Hospital, and is board certified by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology. He is actively engaged in learning and education as he supervises clinical employees and facilitates ongoing education groups for patients and colleagues. Throughout his career, along with treating adults, adolescents, and families, his main focus of clinical and research interest has been the integration of psychiatry, its associated disciplines, and Christian spirituality. He is a frequent speaker on the topic at workshops, conferences, and retreats.

He has specific expertise in the field of interpersonal neurobiology and how it reflects important tenants of Christian faith, providing opportunities to comprehend and experience that same faith in fresh trustworthy ways. Much of his work is now committed to training other professionals across cultures and in multiple vocational domains in the same material. He and his wife Phyllis are the parents of two children and reside in Arlington, Virginia. He serves as an elder at Washington Community Fellowship, a congregation of the Mennonite church, in Washington, D.C. His duties there have included preaching, teaching, and involvement in the fellowship’s healing prayer ministry.

SESSIONS

SESSION ONE

BEING KNOWN: INTERPERSONAL NEUROBIOLOGY (IPNB) AND THE RENEWAL OF ALL THINGS

This will introduce the audience to IPNB, its working description of the mind, and the notion of how “being known” (1 Cor. 8; 1 Cor. 13) plays a central role in this process. We will explore IPNB in general terms; what we mean by the mind; the role of neuroplasticity and emotion in the entire process.

THE NINE DOMAINS OF SESSION INTEGRATION TWO This lecture will explore the idea of integration from an IPNB perspective and the nine different “domains” of the mind that this idea permeates. We will see how the mind is a complex system and how integration is the expression of a complex system that is flourishing—the essence of what we believe mental “health” actually is (vis-à-vis, our usual engagement with mental activity from the direction of psychopathology).

DESIRE AND DEVOURING: SESSION SHAME AND THE THREE DISINTEGRATION OF RELATIONSHIPS

This lecture will explore shame both as an interpersonal neurobiological phenomenon as well as a primary vector wielded by evil to destroy relationships and by extension, the world. We will explore the biblical anthropology of Genesis 1-3 as a gateway for comprehending shame both neurobiologically as well as in the contexts of our narratives. We will introduce the fundamental features of shame, including our conscious experience of it as well as its primary neurobiological attributes, along with the natural consequences for systems when it is not addressed properly. We will invite the story of the man born blind

in John 9 to be a guide for framing this part of our encounter.

STORYTELLING AND THE SESSION DEVELOPMENT OF FOUR CONFESSIONAL HEALING COMMUNITIES This lecture will address the nature of storytelling/narrative. This is necessary in order to prepare the audience to engage the place of the biblical narrative in the process of the healing of shame. We will continue to explore the anthropology of the biblical narrative, along with the practical clinical applications of therapeutic interventions that emerge from this narrative. Specifically, we will refer to texts from Hebrews 12, Luke 3, and John 21.

SESSION FIVE

BEAUTY, EMBODIMENT, AND VOCATIONAL CREATIVITY

What we are called to do as therapists is not just to help people “feel better.” We are inviting people into a space wherein which their healing liberates them to take proper risks of creative endeavor. The healing of shame—indeed all healing—is intended, among other things, to free us to “create, as images-bearers of God, like God creates.” Evil’s intention in wielding shame is not simply to make us feel bad or ruin relationships. It intends to prevent us from maturing into the creative beings that God intended us to be from before the foundation of the world. Hence, our work includes inviting people into a space in which they are willing to create within the multiple vocational domains that they occupy. This expands our vision for our own vocational calling as therapists beyond the borders of treating “mental health disorders” and out into the realm of co-creating with God the space for new vocational endeavours.

WORKSHOPS



FRIDAY 11AM

ANN MARIE PIKE



FAMILY THERAPY & AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER (ASD) - A MULTI-MODAL APPROACH

As a Child and Family Therapist, the incidence of Autism within a family unit can be a unique experience therapeutically. It’s pervasive characteristics can create bonds and barriers between parent and child, siblings, school staff and in social frameworks. These stresses can contribute to many elements of negative family dynamics and co-morbid issues. In a multi-modal approach involving the whole family systemically, I have found an increase in the therapeutic relationship through trust building, further resilience in anxiety and depression, confidence building in parents and in children, an increase in communication through giving language to emotion. In a multi-modal therapeutic approach, the following interventions are simultaneously used:

specific symptoms. Workshop participants will be encouraged to engage in this discussion.

Comic Strip Conversations – (Carol Gray)

3.

Social Stories (Carol Gray, re-framing)

4.

We bring our own spiritual perspectives to the therapeutic relationship, perspectives that have an impact on how we hear what the client brings and how we respond to what we hear. Dr Helen Florence will discuss this statement together with observations from her own practice, in the light of findings from her PhD research entitled: Deciding what belongs: How psychotherapists attend to religion and/or spirituality in the therapeutic process; as well as observations from her practice. Questions such as, “What happens when our worldview conflicts with that of our client’s?” and “We’re both Christians, so there’s nothing to talk about, right?”, will be considered. These matters will be considered in the light of the NZCCA Code of Ethics.

The therapist must observe each individual and their family members as unique within this paradigm as a whole part - with ALL facing and working with the ASD as it relates to themselves. (inside or outside the diagnosis). There are spiritual aspects the therapist can become aware of in themselves and within the relationship the AS child may have with

SELENA ACC DOMINGUEZ - SENSITIVE CLAIMS DR KRIS FERNANDO

The ACC presentation will cover areas of interest to current providers of services to ACC and any counsellors who might be interested in providing services to ACC. The topics to be covered include:



Shame is a crucial issue frequently overlooked in the therapeutic context because it has many hiding places and inevitably reverberates with experiences of shame in the therapist. Therapists can be vulnerable to shame from multiple sources and without awareness of the activation of their shame, therapists risk reacting in ways that are not therapeutic. This, in turn, is likely to impact the therapeutic relationship and outcomes. In this workshop I present my heuristic study in which five psychotherapists were interviewed to elucidate their experiences of shame. Consistent with heuristic methodology and method I undertook in-depth analysis of my own experience of the phenomenon. Shame is portrayed as striking at the core of the self and causing physiological, behavioural, emotional, and cognitive reactions which involve one’s entire being. In all its forms, shame is considered relational. As therapists, identification of our own sources of shame, together with related defences and experiences, is considered as integral to effective shame work with clients. Focus will be given to experiences of ‘chronic shame’ that relate to a sense of shame proneness in the individual. Themes emerging from the study will be presented. Building shame resilience in therapists is underscored as critical in tolerating the vulnerability in meeting clients



A summary of ACC’s progress regarding the transformation programme and any recent and future changes which may impact on counsellors engaging in work for ACC.



An update on the Integrated Services for Sensitive Claims contract including both qualitative and quantitative data. Included will be statistics on referral numbers, average length of service provision and outcome data.



Information about the new Pain Management Services and ACC’s progress with implementing the ACC traumatic brain injury strategy. The aim is for counsellors to appreciate the different areas in which they can work for ACC and the criteria whereby they can engage in the different areas of ACC work



Provision of information to counsellors about the process of applying to work on ACC contracts

KAREN LORIMER

FRIDAY 3.30PM

To work effectively with shame it is important to know our own relationship with shame, the ways our body responds to, resists and/ or veils our awareness to shame’s presence. This workshop will explore body-based and meditative practices that can support us to remain present with our clients when shame makes its presence felt in therapy. Note: This participants.

Shame by its very nature is contagious. It does not like to be named or talked about; yet it has much to teach us as therapists. Its neurophysiological patterning is similar to that of trauma and disrupts our social engagement system, rendering us powerless and unable to reach out to participate in the relational repair that could end the sense of isolation our shame creates. This is the genesis of the double binds that perpetuate shame cycles.

THE VALUE OF EXERCISE. THE “BORN AGAIN BODIES” APPROACH.

GARY SYME

In this workshop Gary will take participants through exercises he utilises in ‘Born again Bodies’. Exercises will utilise weights – even using just bodyweight alone to enhance: •

Muscle strength declines with age through muscle loss, and there is a strong association between muscle strength and balance, co-ordination and living an independent life.



Balance exercises, along with certain strength exercises, can help prevent falls by improving your ability to control and maintain your body’s position, whether you are moving or still. Balance can also be improved by increasing your reaction time.



Flexibility can be regained and continually improved through the right form of stretching exercises.



Mental and Cognitive Health can be improved through the increased supply of oxygen and the enhancement of healthy activity in the brain.

CREATING SANCTUARY FOR SHAMED SELVES

“Shame can and often does stifle love. But if we simply refuse shame, we may find that we have also refused love – in all of its vulnerable exposure – as well. Can we afford such a refusal?” (Virginia Burrus, 2011).

TONY PARSONS

SATURDAY 11AM WORKING WITH ANGER

People present anger along with confusion, shame, pain and loss. They have learned the practices of anger from their family of origin, culture, mates, sport, workplace, adult relationships or traumatic chapters and/or events. They see anger as a deficit behaviour in their relationships; an uninvited descriptor of them that has become public. Often people close to them have suggested or ‘forced’ them to come to deal with their ANGER problem. In this workshop, we will cover effects of anger in the body and brain, understanding anger as a God-given emotion, moving through anger to a person’s Core Values and what is important to them. The aim is generate compassion as a foil to the practices of anger. We will complete exercises as I would do them with clients and give time for discussion.

Tony has completed 11 years as a Guidance Counsellor, in 2002, he joined Life Unlimited as a private counsellor and later also joined Pakuranga Counselling Centre. His current work is seeing individuals and couples for a range of presenting issues using Personcentred, EFT and Narrative, EAP work – Brief and Solution focussed – and facilitating community courses in Anger/Conflict and Communication.

BRIGITTE PULS

work with individual clients when they bring to us their deep “shames” about their personal lives- within global contexts.

FROM SHAME TO EMPOWERMENT & JOY

What a shame there’s so much shame - A workshop of connecting with our inherent joy and potency. We live in (increasingly) difficult times of deconstruction and change. This is happening on personal, societal and global levels. Deep down, most of us are also faced with facing our own shame, and that of our clients. This workshop aims to build on positive experiences of reconnecting with our bodies, with the joy of rhythm and simple movement in community. We may discover our own shame about “being like children”, our own uncomfortableness about our bodies and our own deeply hidden shame of trusting ourselves to be present. It is from this place of rejuvenation and enlivenment that we can be empowered to do the difficult

Brigitte has been teaching psychotherapy and practicing in-depth psychotherapy, psychology and supervision for 30+ years. Her experience and passion are in the area of facilitating personal healing groups and holding retreats which facilitate connection with self, others and God. Brigitte holds also a deep love for our earth. Her approach includes movement practices, sacred chanting and creativity.

JEMMA ALLEN

BECOMING MORE PRESENT - CONTEMPLATIVE PRACTICES & COUNSELLING

This workshop looks at recent New Zealand - based research about how experienced counsellor’s contemplative practices relate to their counselling practices. We will hear counsellors’ experiences of the ways that contemplative practices both support and disrupt their counselling practice, and consider the ways that the New Zealand experience is similar to, and different from, research from the international counselling community. If there is interest, this workshop will also include the opportunity to learn a contemplative practice related to the way we carry our work with clients.

Jemma Allen is a student in the Masters in Counselling programme at the University of Auckland. She has experience in pastoral ministry both in New Zealand and in China, and is enjoying developing a private practice offering counselling, spiritual direction and ministry supervision alongside her work in an Anglican parish in Auckland.

LISA TAYLOR

WORKING WITH TEENS WHO STRUGGLE WITH PORN

According to a 2016 study by research organisation, Barna group, “teens and young adults use porn JESSICA more than any one else.” A second HARRIS 2016 study has shown that 22% of the children (18 and under) using porn are under the age of 10. In this workshop, Lisa Taylor (CPSAS, post-grad counselling student) will look at what children are seeing and how it is affecting their sexual, social and emotional development. She will also look at ways therapists can diagnose a

porn addiction in young people, and will give an overview of ways we can support them as they navigate their way out of one. Joining her for a portion of this workshop (over Skype) will be Jessica Harris who runs an online ministry for female, Christian porn addicts.

Lisa Taylor is a post-grad counselling student and award-winning author living in Whangarei. In 2016 she became the country’s first certified pastoral sex addiction specialist (International Association of Certified Sex Addiction Specialists) and is now serving on the IACSAS board.

This support includes facilitating groups and running the Beyond Betrayal Community website. She and her husband Michael speak to Christian organisations and young people about pornography and sexual addiction, and God’s great plan for sexual intimacy. Her books on this topic include Beyond Betrayal, Beyond Betrayal Couples’ Guide (workbook), and There’s WHAT on my Phone? (youth fiction). For more information beyondbetrayal.community or oilofjoy.nz.

Jessica Harris is an author, blogger, and international speaker characterized by her courage, transparency, and grace. Speaking from her own experience, and from her passion for authenticity, she brings to light the issues of women who are addicted to pornography. Jessica also speaks on relationships, abstinence, and prolonged singleness. Her message is appropriate for churches, youth groups, women’s conferences, and college events where she can share her story to women and leaders alike encouraging others to live abundant lives full of freedom. Few speakers address these issues from a Godly perspective with honesty, humour and candor pulling from her own life experiences. Jessica has been featured in the documentary “The Heart of the Matter” as well as on ABC Nightline. She has been a guest author for numerous blogs, including Covenant Eyes, Proverbs 31 Ministries, and Sheila Wray Gregoire’s To Love Honor and Vacuum.
