Background: Person-Based Cognitive Therapy (PBCT) is an approach to distressing psychosis that seeks to integrate cognitive therapy with mindfulness principles and practice. The workshop will describe how mindfulness and cognitive therapy are formulated within PBCT, and explore how mindfulness principles inform the therapeutic relationship. Using an experiential exercise and client DVD, we will examine how to adapt mindfulness practice for people with distressing psychosis and explore how mindfulness practice needs to support new learning, or insight.

What Do I Need to Know? Navigating intimate boundaries & privacy in children’s lives today.

 

Wednesday 26th November 2014


Croke Park Convention Centre, Cusack Stand, Dublin 1


8.30am — 4.45pm 


Registration 8:30 to 9:00


(Parking included in conference fee) 

 

The overarching theme of the conference is to explore how we as professionals can understand and respond thoughtfully to issues around intimate boundaries and privacy in children’s lives today, in particular those who have experienced sexual abuse. The focus will be both practical and reflective. We want to examine how we can make things better for children caught up in the various professional systems designed to respond to child sexual abuse (CSA) concerns. Throughout the day the conference will invite participants to actively reflect and consider the following questions: 
How do we treat children, their experiences and their information in the course of our professional interactions?

How do we understand our role and the role of others in the context of the wider professional system that comes into play when CSA is a concern?

How do we individually and collectively help make sense of this for children and their families?

How do we communicate all of this to children and their families?

Can we look from our various perspectives at what we really need to know about essentially private matters in the lives of children and their families?

How can we practically

Into The Other: The Development of Thought’

 

December 6, 2014, The Teacher’s Club, Dublin

 

 

Disability Psychotherapy Ireland invites you to their third annual seminar, ‘Into the Other: The Development of Thought’.

 

This day is an opportunity to hear and work with two of the leading thinkers in the fields of forensic psychotherapy, autism and disability.  Drawing on their vast experience of treating patients with disabilities, the speakers will examine ways of helping to “bring to life” minds that have been atrophied by trauma, abuse and neglect. 

 

In her keynote paper Dr Alvarez will consider three clinical examples in which a particular form of aliveness was awakened in the context of a deeply interpersonal relationship. By looking at work with children with autism and borderline states, the paper will bring together thinking from the worlds of psychoanalysis, relational psychotherapy and neuroscience to form a cogent theory of levels of interpretation and attunement that can help replace dead thought with alive thinking.

 

 

Tamsin Cottis will draw on Dr Alvarez’s ‘Clinical Levels’ model, describing how long-term integrative psychotherapy can facilitate significant relational change in children and young people who have sexually harmful behaviour.  This paper is an <span

/in
 
MELANCHOLIA
 
Friday 7-Saturday 8 November 2014
National Museum of Decorative Arts & History, Collins Barracks, Dublin 7
 
This two-day international, multidisciplinary seminar explores the topic of ‘melancholia’ from clinical, theoretical, film studies, and visual arts practice and curatorship perspectives. What does this term mean and how is it understood, worked with and represented in different contexts? We will be looking at how meanings for the term have developed over time and how contemporary understandings of ‘depression’, the ‘sublime’ and ‘affect’ have been used to think about experiences of melancholia. The programme includes a film screening, an art installation screening, an art performance, as well as a range of talks, responses and discussions with speakers specialising in the areas of clinical psychoanalysis/psychoanalytic psychotherapy and psychology, visual arts practice and curatorship, and academic research fields, such as literary theory and criticism, philosophy, film studies, history, gender and sexuality studies, and art history and visual culture. The emphasis will be on discussion. 
 
Invited participants include Caroline Bainbridge (University of Roehampton), Bice Benvenuto (Centre for Freudian Analysis and Research, London), Cecily Brennan (visual artist, Dublin), Olga Cox Cameron (APPI, IFPP and St Vincent’s University Hospital), Amanda Coogan (performance artist, Dublin), Ann-Marie Delaney (visual artist, Dublin), Judy Gammelgaard (Danish Psychoanalytic Society and University of Copenhagen), Noreen Giffney (IFPP, IIPP and UCD), Tina Kinsella (visual artist and NCAD), Lisa Moran (IMMA and NCAD), Anne Mulhall (UCD), Ann Murphy (IFPP, TCD and visual artist), Isabel Nolan (visual artist, Dublin), Frances O’Dwyer (visual artist, Dublin), Mary Pyle (IIPP, IFPP and TCD), Emma Radley (UCD), Medb Ruane (APPI), Moynagh Sullivan (NUIM), Marie Walshe (APPI) and Eve Watson (APPI and Independent College Dublin).
