Working with Profound Childhood Sexual Trauma with Gene Yellin at MITPP

A CLINICAL WORKSHOP: WORKING WITH PROFOUND CHILDHOOD SEXUAL TRAUMA  SATURDAY, MAY 11, 2019 PRESENTER: GENE YELLIN, LCSW

This workshop will focus on psychotherapy with a young female suffering from post-traumatic stress subsequent to a rape by a priest when she was 7 years old.  The details of the therapy will demonstrate the experiential difficulties encountered over a five-year treatment and what was required from the therapist to help this woman begin to come to terms with her trauma.  The profound complications of how non-empathic caregivers influenced her character development will be examined.  Countertransference with such patients will be explored. Participants will be encouraged to offer their own clinical vignettes in their work with sexually traumatized patients.
