Shame – relating to inner value and cultural context

February 26 - March 12 - March 26 - April 09 - April 23 - May 14 - May 28 - 2025

The course has started and is do not accept new participants. A LEVEL 2 ONLINE COURSE. Relational Trauma therapy has specialised in including and normalising hypo-states and developing practical methods for working with these. As part of this process we discovered the importance of including and differentiating shame. We see working with shame as an essential part of working with trauma and dissociation. Working with shame and working with disgust are often interwoven and they both hold aspects of working with hypo-states. Finding a way to own our shame and finding ways out of shame is supported by awakening hypo-responsive parts of us. Please go to COURSE DESCRIPTION for more details about the course
