Description
This product includes Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory, edited by Stephen W. Porges and Deb Dana, and The Polyvagal Theory in Therapy by Deb Dana.
In Clinical Applications of the Polyvagal Theory, innovative clinicians share their experiences integrating Polyvagal Theory into their treatment models. Chapters cover a range of topics, from compassionate medical care to optimised therapeutic relationships and clinicians' experiences as parents. This book highlights the powerful influence and importance of case studies and feelings of safety in the clinical setting. Through the insights of clinicians whose treatment models are Polyvagal-informed, it provides an accessible way for clinicians to embrace this groundbreaking theory in their work.
Polyvagal Theory in Therapy offers therapists an integrated approach to adding a polyvagal foundation to their work with clients. With clear explanations of the organising principles of Polyvagal Theory, the complex concepts are translated into clinician and client-friendly language. The book presents practical ways to work with clients' experiences of connection using a unique autonomic mapping process and worksheets designed to effectively track autonomic response patterns.
Through exercises specifically created to engage the regulating capacities of the ventral vagal system, therapists are given tools to help clients reshape their autonomic nervous systems. The book is essential reading for therapists who work with trauma and those seeking an easy and accessible way of understanding the significance that Polyvagal Theory has to clinical work.
The books are packaged as a shrink-wrapped set.
