Coaches, healers, consultants, body workers...
Have you ever been working with a client and they…
~ seem kind of distracted, maybe even checked out
~ are very procrastinatey, even though they’ve told you again (and again, and again!) that something is important to them
~ have a hard time naming their feelings or being vulnerable
~ are taking notsogreat care of themselves
~ get argumentative with you
~ have a really difficult time making decisions
~ they agree with absolutely everything you say in a way that feels a bit…excessive
~ ghost you
or something else?
Your client might have been in a
fight, flight, freeze, or fawn response!
If you're unfamiliar with these terms,
these are responses that humans (and other creatures, lol) have to stressful events.
And stressful events can be anything from a natural disaster to some other awful thing to a question, exercise, or bodywork experience in a session.
It is soooo important for practitioners to know
about The Four Fs and what to do when
your client experiences them...
Because they might experience it while you're working together!
Whether it’s in a session or over a longer period of time, figuring out whether our clients might be in one of The Four Fs is crucial so we can work with them in supportive and effective ways.
During this 4-day intensive, you’ll learn:
~ The fight/flight/freeze/fawn stress responses
~ A theoretical framework to understand trauma and how it might impact your clients
~ How they might show up in our clients
~ How to work with them so your clients are supported and you’re not making things harder for them
~ About the concept of the Window of Tolerance and how to use it to best serve your clients
~ And more!
Here's what's so important —and fantastic!—about
knowing this information:
~ Instead of seeing or labeling your clients as resistant or uncoachable, you know what to do so your client can get the support they need.
~ You get to do the work you love with the confidence that you are actually making your clients’ lives better...rather than potentially causing harm.
~ You’ll be able to notice possible trauma responses showing up and how to bring them back to neutral in sessions.
~ You know how to hold powerful space possible for clients to become more self-aware, more regulated, and more ready to create what they came to you for.
~ And so much more.
Logistics:
~ There are four meeting times, at 2pm ET/11am PT
~ Each will be 90ish minutes long.
~ Meetings will take place on Zoom.
~ The course will be presented in English.
Meeting 1: Tuesday, April 15th
